Doing lots of live jams and what I’m definitely missing a lot is sidechaining. And simple solo/PFL. And logarithmic faders… sometimes I’m asking myself if they’re even using their own product.

Can the time be set?
Nope.
I’d not found it but it would be soooooo darned helpful to have a time/date stamp on recordings…even if we had to put in correct info after power cycle. DId I so soooooooooooo?
I name each project with the date.

Ah, interesting points, thx. Sidechaining would be great yeah, it’s everywhere in music, especially electronic music, yet most manufacturers don’t seem to see the need to implement it in their gear.
What do you mean with easy solo/pfl? Mixer mode seems to have a solo function, for pfl the cue has to be turned up and cue mix can be set pre fader - not as easy as hitting a button on an analog mixer or dj mixer, but the functionality seems to be there.
I have two use-cases for phone monitoring: 1. hearing the sum of my signals and 2. pre-listening to a signal before I add it to the mix.
In order to hear a single channel on my phones, I need to set the cue to custom+pre-fader and all cue faders to 0 except for the one I want to hear. (Solo+mute isn’t working since solo overwrites mute so it’s affecting the main sum) When I want to monitor my sum again, I have to change the cue setting back again. Yes the functionality is there but it’s not simple.

Guys, am I being stupid or I cant plug two synths into one input and hear them both in both speakers as mono devices?
Now if I do that, I hear one in left, another in right
Have you set each input as its own track or are both inputs on one stereo track?
Hm seems I didnt figure out how to do that. I either make 5R + 5L lit and then I hear one in left, another in right. Or I set one of them lit (either 5L or 5R) and hear one in mono, and another is silent
I need to read manual once again to see how to bind one physical input onto two virtual tracks, right?
Thanks a lot, missed that part

I don’t use my Bluebox all the time but I just found a job for it and I see I’m still on firmware 1.0.8. Is everybody enjoying the current 1.1 beta? Any reason not to give ‘er a go?
AFAIK its 1.1.3 and not beta anymore
Havent had any problems so far with it, though I dont use EQ and FX sections at all
Note, they also released a new manual for 1.1.x versions
1.1.3 is still beta/experimental. I’ve been running it without encountering any problems

Same here
Ah, I see. Indeed, that’s a quite some fiddling around…
You’re welcome!
Thanks for the replies everyone :0) Just installed 1.1.3
I’ve been loving this thing so far but lately I’ve been getting way, way too many errors when recording.
It’s really starting to do my head in.
Anyone else having similar issues?
Nope, no issues… but check your SD card maybe.
