cvpe Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Noob question: Can I assign the expression pedal as a universal volume pedal across all my patches and setlists without using an effects block in the chain? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 No. You need to include the VOL FX block in each preset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pianoguyy Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 HOWEVER... If you seriously want it in all of your patches, and if you are using your computer with the EDIT software: You can create a new patch, and then copy it to all 512 slots. Or, copy it to 64 of them (in one setlist) and then copy the entire setlist 8 times. That way every time you open a spot, you will always have the volume pedal there already installed, ready to make the rest of the patch. *Please note: this doesn't add volume to existing patches. this will overwrite existing patches. But many of us write our own patches and use the same basic template for every patch - therefore, instead of having a "blank" patch in every spot, we like having our building blocks already installed.

patgiff Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 I have a loosely-related question. While in the Edit program: Whenever I add a Volume Pedal FX block I then "unassign" from FS1-4 it so it is always there, and so I don't waste a FS on something I don't ever want to turn off... but after that, when I move the expression pedal, the little * shows up next to the patch, as if I have actually changed the patch. This happens every time, even after I DO save the patch to the Pod. But all I did was move the expression pedal. Is this normal behavior or am I doing something wrong? I am in my very first of "Podliness" so it is possible I am missing something here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 That's normal behaviour. Moving the expression pedal is considered changing the patch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_V_RO Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 What I do sometimes is that I assign the GAIN level of the AMP on the EXP 1 controller. In that way I save one block. It doesn't work 100% as a volume pedal, but It can help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
