Setting up a bridge to be on midi ch1 for me would be a bad idea potentially. Pretty much every midi pedal is on ch1 by default so to me it is way better to shift your solid pedals in the network away from ch1. leave it for guest pedals with a few basic banks to call up PC commands for that guest pedal and your commands to do control remotely will remain safe n sound. There are also plenty of apps out there and other gear that force you to use ch1 especially boss stuff for Sysex so yeah again best to plan well in advance the choice of channels or you end up paying for it down the road reprogramming everything again.

This might be a dumb question but can the flexiports be used to change amp channels?
@PIRATEMIDIАй бұрын
Not usually, but some amps might be compatible - particularly very new models. However, if your amp doesn't meet the quite stringent voltage requirement for the footswitch jack, then our relay switching interface - CLiCK - is what you need
@matthewcooke7182Ай бұрын
Could this be used to toggle a vertex boost on and off?
@PIRATEMIDIАй бұрын
It doesn't look like the vertex boost has an external switching jack?
@matthewcooke7182Ай бұрын
Right it’s an external expression to turn the boost all the way from 0db to I think 16db maybe
@matthewcooke7182Ай бұрын
Do you think I could wire the relay to the on/off switch?
@PIRATEMIDIАй бұрын
You could do something like that with a lot of technical know-how and electronics skill, but you're better off finding a custom MIDI mod solution. The CLiCK isn't designed for modding pedals.

Thanks a lot for the video! And while technically it's not exactly a cross fade between the two effects, it's still a very nice feature that relies on Bridge OS' rich expression pedal control options. One just needs to bear in mind that in this scenario when you change the mix on the first effect in the chain (my educated guess is that Brig runs into the Cloudburst ;), you effectively change what you're feeding into the second effect in the chain. In other words, if you set the mix on Brig to, say, 70%, what it means is you're going to send into the Cloudburst 30 of the dry signal and 70% of the repeats. This is what you will reverberate by the Cloudburst algorithm, AND this is also what would be the "dry" signal for the Cloudburst. In order to make it work in a "true" crossfade mode, you need to either split the signal before both effects, feed them both with the duplicate dry signal, adjust the mix as described in the video, and then parallel-mix the output of both of these effects. Or, you can use a proper parallel mixer, such as GFI Diaphony or GigRig Wetter Box, and control the mix either via an expression pedal, or (in case of Duophony) via a ( Bridge:)) MIDI controller.
@roscius6204Ай бұрын
Correct, except that you will only arrive at a 50/50 mix in either direction because you have a parallel 100% dry and 100% wet at each end of the sweep. The only way to do this is to also have a midi capable pedal with volume in each path, or a stereo pan. Then set the desired end mix on the delay and reverb, this will give you a nicer blend in this scenario If you really want control a separate dry though and run wet dry wet in parallel
@silentguitarplayer6430Ай бұрын
@@roscius6204 this is exactly what GFI Duophony (or maybe some other advanced parallel mixers) allows you to do. You can control the balance of fully wet parallel signals, and you have a separate control over the dry signal level in each of the channels.

@@silentguitarplayer6430 I did look at those. I felt like whilst really good at a specific task, it fell into the $500 one trick pony for my needs, mostly because you are choosing the pedals to mix and are stuck with that configuration, at least that was my take on it. Great if that's what your after, like your Delay//Reverb example. I still use a simple old LS2 in 1 loop to blend a Klone > Argo with a Tim > SD1 into an ODR1...🙄I know.. For Stereo parallels I like the standard series/parallel option for delay and reverb but I also like to add specific FX into those paths, for example a filter into or after the delay with the core tone and mods into the reverb in parallel........ current favorite. I can Expression or LFO pan this too (great with tremolo) and or use the Boost in the TimeLine and BigSky I use an ML10X in the FX loop of my PreAmp which is in the parallel loop of an ES8 All my stereo rack and pedal FX are in the ML10X. Boosts Comps Fuzz and ODs are in the other ES8 loops. There's certainly scope for a better loop/mixer in the market. There's limitations with ML10X (no level control) and the Switchblade is horrifically pricey. Something Stereo with Level and Pan that preferably could be implemented multiple times in the chain. Hope this isn't too much information. I love that there's an Aus company going down this rabbit hole.🤗🤗

@@roscius6204 No worries, this is a perfect amount of info to my taste ) I can see your point, and I can see where you're going. This is exactly what bothered me as well, when I got GFI Duophony at first - the fact that you're kind of stuck with two parallel-mixed chains (yes, you've read it right - chains, not pedals, because you can put several pedals in series (or even in parallel!!!) in each of the two Duophony loops, and have all the fun in the world with them ) But I also got myself an ML10X exactly for this purpose - to make the Duophony loops more flexible. The way I have it set up now is that one of Duophony's loops has the entire ML10X in it. So I have several pedals in series in Duophony's loop A, and the ML10X with a bunch of other effects in Loop B. So for loop B I have an option to bring in an endless amoun of sound variations from pedals in ML10X loops, and then mix/blend/serialize with what I have in the Loop A to my taste. It's not perfect on paper, but I have yet to try enough combinations to think that I need anything more :)))

Thanks for the MIDI demo! Never used MIDI, but I’m looking into foot switches to change presets for this pedal cause it’s a nightmare pressing both buttons on the pedal simultaneously live. Love the sounds of this reverb and its small footprint, but made me want to break a window when I realized you couldn’t “tweak and save” easily like 98% of preset reverb pedals lol. If you need to adjust a preset on the fly live Without MIDI, you have to go back to live mode and change all your parameters to meet the preset, then tweak, then save. Maybe version 4 will let you adjust preset parameters on the fly without spending $300 on a midi switch, fingers crossed lol.

I'm a software engineer with 15 years of professional experience and I coded since I was a child. And I struggle with MIDI. Not because it's too complex to comprehend, but because it sucks so badly. It's a bunch of legacy stuff that doesn't do what you expect. Oh, your looper supports MIDI clock? You can then time perfectly when to start and stop the loop. Wrong, because the MIDI clock has zero information on where a measure starts or how long it is. It only knows the time in between two beats. And then every pedal has its own definition of what means what, let alone that many are a pain to program. Loop switchers often can only send one command at a time unless you spend 100s of dollars. Wanna switch on the delay for the solo? My Plethora X5 requires that you know which bank you are in because you need to know which slot the delay is in. Just customize the protocol for each bank? They didn't bother to add that option.

How do the presents and the algorithm changes interact? If you've got preset 3 selected (say it's a mod algorithm), and then change to a different algorithm (spring for instance), does it turn preset mode off, or keep the preset knob settings but change the algorithm? It looks like the present LED on the Revelation is remaining on in the video after you change the algorithm? Am I missing something?

From my experience it seems as if you load a preset and then you can change anything. If you don't save your changes to overwrite the preset, then the next time you load that preset none of your changes will have "stuck" but you can change things on the fly with no negative side effects at all.
