Hi. 1st post here. I'm just starting use my Mobius in adventurous ways. I have set up a pulsing pattern tremolo, but it's difficult to get it to play in time with the band unless I release the footswitch to change to the patch exactly on the beat. Once the LFO is running and it's slightly out of time, the only way to get it back on time is to click off the effect and try again. I have tried tapping tempo. but this is so specific that the tap tempo doesn't help either as it's not perfectly in time.
I have a drummer running a click track from an iPad. Are there any apps that run a click track and generate a MIDI clock from his iPad, so that I could sync my MIDI clock to his iPad?
If it helps I do also run a macbook with Ableton, but I'm pretty sure the drummer doesn't use ableton, but could his iPad sync with something in Ableton and then I could send MIDI clock from Ableton to the Mobius?

Welcome DorsetBassBeard #17 !
I've been trying to justify selling the Timline, but it just rules so much!
Did a flyover video of my pedal board for quick demo- basically using everything looped across 3 separate tracks on my Boss RC-300. The Strymon boxes are mostly on the guitar tracks, but added a little modulation from the Deco to the bass part too. The iPhone audio really doesn't do justice to the richness of the tone, but kinda gets the point across.
A quick question for you guys. Does the Timeline cover all the tones of the smaller boxes to equal depth or is it more a broad based big box with the ability to have multiple saved settings? The Dig and Deco would be a killer combination to have (especially with the secondary functions). Can the timeline cover it all?
I would love to see a bass amp/cab sim box from these guys.

Power ALL your Strymons and they can be linked! Cool! $249 and $149 respectively.
I'm strongly considering one of these- I don't think I'm getting optimal performance from the pedal power 2plus. Right now I have my blue sky and el Capistan plugged into the higher voltage outputs, and my deco into the "courtesy outlet" on the back of the pp2plus using the wall wart.
I could get the ojai for just my Strymon boxes and continue to use the pp2plus for my other pedals, or run them all through a zuma. I don't have a ton of space on my board, so maybe the zuma is my best bet... Not too keen on the idea of having 2 power supplys. Also, I can see how this is a major attraction to owners of the big boxes, but I only have small boxes, so not sure if this power supply would make a huge difference.

Saw these first hand at NAMM a few days ago, great, sexy, lightweight and rock solid devices by the lovely folks at Strymon. They will fit under a pedal train but they are so sexy you'd want to keep them on top of the board no doubt.
The euro rack digital tape delay sounds amazing as well too!
I'm intrigued!
That amount of power plays very well with power-hungry anything, and you could link up quite a few daisy chains. The 18v taps could be very useful for OD's and Fuzz pedals for better headroom, not to mention analog delays etc. Looks like win.
I also have a Deco incoming that I am looking forward to experimenting with. The Timeline has made me reevaluate some of my other gear that has been sitting around that could turn in to cash to support what might be turning into a Strymon jones.
@Bubby Brown #20 welcome! Rad setup! Glad you're digging the Timeline, I feel ya all the way on that
Not sure if this is news around here, but I heard on TGP that Sweetwater is now a Strymon dealer, apparently.
Former BluSky owner, great pedal

So cool! My cousin works for them. I'll tell him about this thread, he will love it. Proud owner of a timeline
@bujubonton #21 welcome!
Who is your cousin? I met several of the Strymon folk @ NAMM they were all super nice and helpful.
His name is Hugo
I absolutely love Hugo, he has helped me out several times through the support channel and he was incredibly cool in person (hooked me up with stickers and a shirt). Great guy!
