    Yes, they’re in an alright sequence. You might be able to catch pitch shifted notes on the superego if you put it after the neo clone or mxr flanger.

    none that I know about; I remember being really excited because the electribe’s motion sequencing is basically just cc automation, except they forgot to put in the part where it sends that cc signal over the midi. :/

    Glad this worked out for you! Hope the show goes well.

    ah but the cc values are automatable – so draw a looping 16 hour track in your DAW, where every four hours, change cc105 from 0 to 127 (track select), and set the volumes where you want them for cc’s 21, 22, 23 and 24 (track volumes). That’s on p25 of the manual.

    Is the sound quality usable when the variant tempo you switch to is half the initial? (Should lower the nyquist freq to 10k or so)
    could you automate the fader levels and track select with a DAW so it cycles through which track is recording? I mean, 2 hour wav file, half speed = 4 hours; four tracks * 4 hours =16 hours.

    keep a loop of velcro on the pedalboard to fasten it down when not playing it? or rig some kind of string to the battery power clip and an anchor? or out and out build a mounting enclosure for it that it sits in (maybe out of a small mixer’s rack ears)?

    or put way more faith than you should in patch cables’ ability to keep things where they need to be

    it looks like it comes with a free pair of sunglasses and a can of axe body spray.

    I like the valvekings; I used to have a red-stripe era bandit that worked rather well for most applications. Peavey makes some excellent amps. They’re built to last and they take pedals really well.

    really? that’s it for options? you’d almost be better off building your own or buying a bass amp with no built in effects (and then rolling the low end down a bit). Look for at least 30w and a 10″ speaker (if you can find one, the SWR LA10 is the sleeper practise amp of the century).

    hello again,
    I heard about a possible latency issue with what I’m trying to do. Do you know anything about this? thanks, t.ice

    I’ve only heard about the latency here; I never ran into it when I was using mine as a straightforward looper, but nowadays I set my loop length beforehand so it’s a total non-issue.

    Would you be looking more for manipulating external sound sources or for generating sources on the ipad? I mean, I know garageband on the ipad is really awesome and easy to use, and the Animoog and Korg iElectribe have both piqued my fancy, but other than that, I got nothing.

    yeah you’d probably either want an iPad dock with proper audio outputs of some kind (Alesis makes a decent one, I hear), but if you’d have to use the headphone jack, you could get by with something like this: (link) – a word of caution though, I wouldn’t go that route. 1/8″ headphone jacks are kind of notoriously bustable by having their solder traces lifted from the PCB.

    you’d also need an amp or PA or whatever for the sound to come out of.

    Have you looked at using something like the Alesis ModFX Phlngr? I have one and it sounds quite good, especially on zero-through and hypertriangle (sawtooth) LFO waveforms; They usually run under $60 on ebay, although you’d have to get a keyboard sustain pedal for a footswitch.

    with an ipad to control it over midi or using instrument apps from the ipad and looping in the 2880?

    Yeah, you generally don’t hear a clean sound with the metal muff engaged, no.

    Can you try it with a “closed” signal source like a CD player or synth or drum machine? (a cd player won’t feedback so this is to test if the MM is causing oscillation or something with your amp, or if it’s not vibing with your guitar.)
    Make sure all the knobs are working intuitively, and if all that works well, then hook up your guitar and see if that works on the same settings.

    report back, regardless of whether it works or not.

    What exactly isn’t working? Just not finding a good placement for it or good sound out of it? Or is it not passing signal or being really quiet?
