jedishane7 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 I'm having trouble figuring out how to assign the pitch bending effect to the volume pedal on the FBV 3 Shortboard. I see where you select the heel/toe percentages. But, nothing for the pedal. Any help with this would greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_m Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 In the Spider Remote app, you just hold down on the "Position" parameter for a few seconds, and a dialog box pops up asking you if you want to assign that parameter to the expression pedal. I'm not sure about how to do it on the amp itself... I would need to dig into the manual for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure about how to do it on the amp itself... I would need to dig into the manual for that. That's actually not the way it works. Double tap on the blank area( outside of the slider) of the parameter you want to control with the Exp. pedal and a dialog box will pop up. BTW, is there a manual or guide on the Spider Remote App? I've had to discover things by experimenting- not the best way to learn it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had to discover things by experimenting- not the best way to learn it. Just tried it, and it seems both ways work, at least on the iPhone. Double-tapping is faster, though. And, actually it seems double-tapping anywhere along the parameter bar itself works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny, though, on my iPhone if I hold for three seconds that same window pops up. Perhaps it's related to the 3D Touch/Long Press features that came out with the iPhone 6s.

jedishane7 Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share Posted February 9, 2017 Thanks guys. You've been a BIG help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedishane7 Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share Posted February 9, 2017 I just updated the amp using the Line 6 updater, and the function is now on the amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikecalligaro Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Is there a way to do this without having a physical petal? I'd like to have the eqivalent of a pitch bent pedal that's been bent down one semitone. (The equivalet of drop tuning). I don't have an iOS or Android device, so I need to do this from the amp itself. When I edit a patch (press the Edit button) I can scroll down to a WAH section, and I see a number of options for the WAH, but none of them seem to be pitch bend. Any help would be appreciated.

Mike Check your other post regarding pitch bend Same ans though: Select the Pitch modulation Type Select Pitch Bend for the effect press OK Set Position at 50% Set Heel to -1 (drop down 1 semitone; -2 for whole step drop etc) Set Toe to 0 Set mix to 100% At a good volume level you won't hear much of the strings tuning bleed of your guitar itself, at low volumes it can be distracting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikecalligaro Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Thanks again GuitarDad! (To be clear for anyone who didn't see my other post. The Pitch Bend is in the SYN section, not MOD or WAH.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
