This is something that has been driving me batty since I got my Headrush. I use presets fairly heavily when switching scenes and have not figured out how to achieve gapless switching. Based on your wonderful video, it seems the only way to achieve this would be by doubling up on amp and OD blocks. Pity, one of key selling points for me was the advertised gapless switching. Oh well, it sounds brilliant and I can live with a 1 second bump. Thanks for your videos (especially the Wall of Marshall), keep them coming!
Thanks, things have slowed down for a bit because my band is making an album, but I'll make more as soon as I get time.. Re. Presets, until they have more powerful processors that can preload things ready for the switch I'm afraid we're stuck with it! I had a Helix and that's the same, you can hide the change with delay and reverb, or you can get sneaky and use the treadle for seamless changes..
Thinking about it, the problem is the unloading and loading of the block with the new preset that causes the bump . If they gave us a X2 button on all blocks so we could hop between 2 presets without unloading. I know we'd run into lack of DSP power problems, but I'd live with it.
That's a great tip, thanks! Just found your channel and subscribed, love it! I've been messing around with the Tron filter, my band is covering Livin' On a Prayer. Hey, what are those button covers you are using? I need something like that! Cheers, Kent
Hello . I must Change my comment!!! No Glitch here...I didn't realise that in the change of scene, when switching to the SLO 100 , i didn't put the Vox OFF Vox in the edit part of the scene... so it was still ON. Both Amp in a raw...My Bad... Great video .Change my main rig after that.... Put 2 amps in a raw is not A on/B Off OR A off/B on Just to let you know that when you put 2 amps in a raw, when the amp1 is bypassed as you told in the video, it is not exactly the case. I've tried you solution with a clean sound with a Vox as AMP 1, and a dirty sound with Soldano as AMP2. You should notice that when amp 1 is "bypassed" the sound of the guitar is affected buy the tremolo of the Vox , although it is bypassed, and the sound that goes into the amp2 is not "pure". The fact that the two amps are aligne in a raw and not parallele should be the reason. might be putting a split in front af the 2 amps and the sound passe through one OR the other
Hi there, this is interesting, and it certainly sounds like a bug to me.. can you share the rig with me so I can test it on my board? I'm a beta tester and will forward it to the developers.. If you could email it to steevp@hotmail.com that would be great and I'll get back to you.
How do you not use a preset and are able to have 2 different amp settings in a scene? When I try this without scenes, it doesn't work, and there's still a gap. Don't you have to save any setting as something? This amp gap thing is a killer for live performance. Thanks!
As I show in the video you have to avoid presets on the amp and gain blocks completely if you want seamless transitions, even if the presets change nothing they will introduce a gap. They are fine on modulation or dtime based effects. The only way to have no gap is to have 2 amps or distortions and flip between them using scenes.
@@MuckingAboutWith Hmmm, but in a scene, if you take a stock amp and save the settings, (not as a preset), for a dirty sound, when you use the same amp and change the settings for a clean amp sound, it also changes the dirty amp settings, no? This has been my experience. Also in my clean scene I want the first pedal to be a compressor, but in the dirty scene, I want the compressor to change to an overdrive pedal. Is that possible? Thanks!
@@sbrave Okay, I see what you want.. put 2 amp blocks in your chain, set one crunchy and one clean, then in scene one have amp 1 (and the distortion) on and amp 2 off, in scene 2 have amp 1 (and the distortion) off and amp 2 (and the compressor) on and they will swap with no audible gap.. If it still doesn't work let me know and I'll make you a rig.
@@MuckingAboutWith Thanks! I should've said even with 2 of the same amps in a scene, it seems when you change settings on the clean amp, it changes the settings on the dirty amp as well? Maybe I'm still missing something. Ok, so no way to have the compressor change to an overdrive pedal between scenes? I'll have to get rid of one more block and have the overdrive and the compressor in the same scene. I may take you up on making a rig : )

Yep. Ran into the same issue using presets in scenes. Wish it worked, but at least there’s a workaround.
This is exactly what I do as well. I don’t use preset blocks for dirt sounds. Works great for wet fx though.
Exactly, anything that smears the sound is ok as a preset, core sound components not so much :)

All your vids are great dude!🤙🏽
Thanks Keoki, I really appreciate that!
your videos have helped me tremendously. thank you, and keep them coming
My pleasure, they're fun to do..
Another great lesson
This is brilliant - thank you!
Thanks Chris! :)
Thank you for this. Definitely helped me in creating

Tron filter plus wah will get you to livin' on a prayer I bet.. maybe some 8 bit crush too..
Really AMAZING!!!! 💪😉

@@MuckingAboutWith OK i'll do that.
I'm glad you solved it!, I drove myself mad today trying to make it do what you said :)
