I use one of these on my pedalboard.

I could be wrong but I think the reason Chase Bliss went with the current 5 pin midi to trs configuration was to have one trs port work for midi and ext trigger.
I agree itās inconvenient but I prefer this to not having the option to have those simultaneously or the larger form factor.
The DAD cables are expensive, after one or two you probably should have just got the box or learned to make them yourself š¤·
Wow, nice board! I have the API on the way, (bass version). Might go for the guitar version as well, swap out the Strymon Iridium. Mood MKII will likely find a way on my guitar / synth board this year as well, good tip on the Midi Box!

So I got all inspired by my Mood MKII incoming, and built myself a little pedal board. Stringed together all my Chase Bliss stuff and performed this piece live, through the Blooper and onwards from there -

Iām curious, given you are a Blackbox userā¦ how do you decide what to bloop vs what to (BB-) loop?

I donāt really. Thereās no method to the madness. Sometimes, I go bloop. Sometimes, I go box. Whatever feels right.

Mood is always on. GenLossMKII close second. Habit sometimes, far from always, like Blooper. CXM, somewhere between Mood and GenLoss.

I find it hard to conceive the MOOD ever being out of my modest effects chain.
Such that I thought twice about putting it up for sale, lest it depart before the MKII arrive, though it would be a good lesson in MOOD fasting.
Still hooked on the reverb/tape combo as my go to setting.
If it doesnāt sell before the successor arrives, it could be fun to do a bit of double MOOD action. Perhaps Iāll even want to keep it!

I read Joel discussing the idea of a MkII Blooper on another forum (TGP I think) and talking about the OGās development. I guess the guy who did the bulk of the programming work isnāt with them anymore, so Joel was pretty direct that it was unlikely that theyād overhaul Blooper into a MkII iteration, but would more likely develop something entirely new based on their experience of making and releasing Blooper.

On that note, where did Knobs go? Heās no longer listed as working with Chase Bliss.

Doing it right now, actually, though not with the Mood MKII - yet. Though Iāve got the set prepared for it.
But right now, Iām sending the Blooper through the GenLosMKII into the TX-6 ch1. Out through the TX-6 aux, through the Habit and Mood in parallell, and both of them back into TX-6 ch2 and ch3 for separate mixing and also some of that TX-6 real time goodness from both fx slots, but the second one in particular.
My word does the TX-6 open up a mix, despite its fragile digital nature.

Haha - will have to re-read all that routing.
Yes the TX-6 has really impressed me and iāve only done basic stuff with it. I even dig the FX

For some reason, Iād forgotten to look for the new Midi Manual for the Mood MkII. Itās available now and I donāt think Iāve seen it shared. Their new midi spec is very comprehensive.
