Zoom b3 patch Ideas

Hi Guys,
Having sold my B3 and now using a MS60B, I can get access to my previous B3 patches on my PC ......but only the ones I saved. Does anyone know how I can get access to all the factory presets on screen without purchasing another B3 ?
Pete

Just load the edit and share software. You can then select the B3 and the presets will be there, even without any device connected
 
Agreed, but this only shows what you have edited and saved. What I need is all the factory presets as supplied.

The Pilbarabass answer is correct,he means to open the ZOOM online folder,last in the line and take the library,not local folders.


But you can do that :
Hit the link and search for the "Original patch library" .Click to download.

The link does not work......the only thing I think I can do, is to borrow a B3, link it up to my PC (usb), then see if it will give me the factory presets.

Im sure you are right, because it is not liked up when I open the share program since I have reinstalled it, it does not recognize anything.

Ill keep you posted.

Thanks again

I bought a B3 from a talkbass member a couple weeks ago, and love it! This is my first delve into the world of effects. I was more of a plug in and just play guy, so my knowledge of different effects is elementary. My goals with the B3 are to have sections of effects to use with each song my band plays. I am looking for something to help beef up my tone during solo's but not an all out distortion. Would the tube screamer do that, or would i need to use a compression pedal in conjunction? I am in the middle of remodeling our new home, so my practice/exeriment time is diminished for the time being.

Many ways with B3 to do that you want.First try the Booster or Exciter.You can have good boosted scooped sound with Bottom B.
The color button on MXR DI+ and a little volume makes your solos great.In fact,all the preamps on B3 is capable to bring you there.

I tried the MXR DI+ and the distortion was overwhelming. I will try again and dial back the distortion. Thank you TitaniumRx.
