wijobe Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Can I have the FBV buttons A, B, C, D do anything else but switch between registers within one bank? Can I have e.g. one button switch between banks? I have FBV control software running but whatever I change there does not seem to have any effect on the board... Any ideas?

fflbrgst Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 No, you cannot change how the Express operates with the amp - the functions are part of the amp's control system. You can use the Express buttons to do different things as a MIDI controller through the software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wijobe Posted June 11, 2019 Author Share Posted June 11, 2019 Thanks for the answer. Is there any experience what a Line6 shortboard would be able to do in combination w/ a Spider V? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to this page: https://line6.com/foot-controllers/fbv-shortboard-mkii the shortboard is compatible with the Spider V, so should be able to access all the features.

wijobe Posted June 11, 2019 Author Share Posted June 11, 2019 Yes, i saw this , thanks!...do you happen to know whether that would be true only for the shortboard mkII or also for the older version w/o USB? I was wondering what the USB would help me with if everything is handled by the amp anyhow. For your understanding: I have a good offer for an older shortboard....

fflbrgst Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I do not believe the old shortboard will be compatible. Per this page: https://line6.com/legacy/fbvs it was not compatible with anything after the Spider III. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
