Default Volume for all Effects

Default Volume for all Effects

2004-12-08 by stayintune64

I am just setting up my VF1 and would like to know if there is a way 
to get the master volume for all effects to default to the same 
setting, across the board. As I am assinging effects to my FCB1010, I 
have to adjust the volume for each one. My preference is that they 
are all the same.  Any help is appreciated.

questions about patches.

2004-12-08 by Danny Anbouba

Hi,

I was having trouble programming my own patches to get
nice sounds because it takes a long time.  I was
interested in the patches that are available in the
group site, such as the patches posted by FRANKENFRED.
 These files are .syx files, so i don't know how to
open them or if i have to connect the vf-1 to my
computer adn if i have to, how to do it.  I would
appreciate it if you help me out.
Thank you

Hi!
Download MIDI OX program from the Internet, by that you can open the files and download them to your VF-1.

Hi,

So once i have the MIDI usb or soundcard cable, I
should download MIDI-OX??  After that is done, what
are the procedures to enter info into the vf-1?  What
do i need to do with my vf-1?  and what will happen to
the presets already in it?  
Thank you,

No not really, I think you can copy specific amp settings from patch to
patch though I am not sure about this.
But you should tweak every single patch til you gor what you want.

Not every piece of (guitar) music during a recording or gig is at the same
level and different amp types give different respons.
But with the fcb 1010 you shoiuld be able to control the volume settings
with one of the pedals.

You need to do a midi bulk dump to save/backup the patches in the VF on your
computer ,it is dexcribed in the manual pages 98 - 101.

For sending patches from the puter to the vf-1 you will have to perform a
midi bulk dump, also pages 98 - 101.


It is not that difficult,

Hi,

I do not have the manual to the vf-1.  I didn't get on
when i purchased the processor.  Is there any way you
can summarise the process?  This is greatly
appreciated.
Thank you

Ok here we go:

The VF can send sysex data in the following "types":
ALL : Utility and Patch settings
UTILITY: on ly  the utility settings
PATCH: All User patches
TEMP: the current selected patch

How ??:

Press utility
choose "Midi"
press "enter"
Use the  <parameter>  buttons to select " Midi bulk dump"
Use the " value " knob to  select the syx data you want to send
Push the number/value knob

A message appears: "Bulk" Dump"
wait for the " complete " message and pres " utility again to return to 
the play mode.

For receiving sysex the procedure is pretty much the same except you 
have to selet "midi Bulk Load".
The message " now waiting " appears.
Start sending syx from Midi ox (or cubase or sonar/cakewalk) and the 
boss tells you  "Now Receiving"

Wait for the " complete " message
press " Utility"

That's it

Hope this helps

Sjaak

I know this may have been asked many times, but is there a software 
editor for the VF-1?

I don't know, maybe sounddiver (soundiver ??) has a  commercial one.
I never heard about an editor though.
