Evorgeloc Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 FBV II 100% compatible??? But volume control doesn't work fully - when switching patches, new patch always kicks in at max volume where ever pedal is positioned - see my post on this subject - be helpful to have some learned comment on this issue from Line 6 please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBell Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 If you can post a link to your post I'd be happy to help. In the meantime I recommend to make sure all presets are leveled. Also keep in mind that the preset will be recalled in which ever state it was saved. By recalling a saved preset with the Volume at 100%, the preset will engage with the Vol effect 100% regardless of the EXP position. If this is a preset you'd like to be recalled at a lower volume ( such as 50%) I recommend saving it at the desired spot. Then when engaging this preset it will be within the desired volume.

Evorgeloc Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Hey Nick, thank you for your interest - here's the post http://line6.com/support/topic/19425-fbv-shortboard-volume-pedal-issues/ Whilst I appreciate your suggestion regarding the levelling of volumes and I have done this to a certain extent, however I need the fine adjustments of the volume pedal.....being able to make a small adjustment to increase/decrees volume.

radatats Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Yes, FBV Express MKII is 100% compatible with Firehawk 1500 Nick - is the FBV3 compatible with any of the Flextone series amps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBell Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Nick - is the FBV3 compatible with any of the Flextone series amps? The FBV3 is not compatible with Legacy products such as Flextone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the Link! A lot of great feedback in that post. Just to reiterate, regardless of where the EXP is, when you recall a preset it will always load with the saved volume within the preset, until the EXP is moved. If you would like a particular preset to load with lets say the EXP at half way, I would re-save the tone with the adjusted volume effect within the signal chain. If a preset is saved with the Volume effect at 100%, recalling that preset with FBV's EXP at 50% won't load the preset with 50% volume.

Evorgeloc Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Nick, thank you but I'm struggling with this - I have saved patches with volumes set at low i.e. pedal set to minimum but immediately when I select the patch the volume is at max, whatever the pedal position - this is what I struggle with and speaking frankly, this has to be a malfunction of the software - why when selecting a patch would you have it kick in at maximum volume and then adhere to the pedal once the pedal is moved - certainly not the case on the Spider, Amplifi, Flextone and firehawk effects pedal - this is a 1500 anomaly.
