11 Rack & Expression Pedal as Wah and Multiple EFX
Hey there,
I noticed something strange in 11Rack (maybe after installing the Expansion Pack): when I set the expression pedal to wah it is responding very slow...there is a noticable latency in the sound coming AFTER the movement. I didn't notice it before and I have recorded using the wah function...tried different cables and different volume pedals as expression - same thing. Anyone else noticed that? Another thing: I used the multiple efx feature on a patch changing the pre-amp and master volume, treble and bass settings on a lead800 model. So far that works as intended. Now I wanted to do the same with a Plexi model - but the menu lets me only choose these parameters as targets: volume, treble, mid, bass, speed (?), intensity (?), gate, release, and output. This applies to ALL plexis and the jtm. There is no "high gain" and "Normal" volume like in the front panel...speed and intensity like what? tremelo? I'm quite puzzled...anyone else noticed that? Cheers. |

Does it behave the same way without the connection to your computer?

There is no volume control available selecting the Amp control as that is its own separate selection in the drop down combo box. But I could access all the controls on the front of the '69 Plexi amp. Not all at once mind, as there are only 4 slots in MultiFX - but they are all accessible . Gain1 controls the Hi-gain (Volume1) on the front Panel of the Plexi. Gain2 controls the Normal (Volume2) on the front Panel of the Plexi. Cheers, V.

Did you calibrate the expression pedal?

After installing the Expansion Pack you need to go back into User Options and set the Pedal Type to work correctly with your expression pedal.

hey there,
thanks for your replies and input on that subject... Quote:

The other issue: Tried it standalone this time and "Vol1" and "Vol2" are indeed accessible from inside the 11Racks own menu...but not from the GUI in ProTools. But actually after a restart of Pro Tools now I have Vol1 and Vol2 showing up in the GUI menu as well - now speed and intensity are gone (on the plexiglas model). I'm still on Protools 8.0.4 - 11R Firmware is the latest though...maybe some kind of booting or start-up order kind of thing. Another oddity: I can't get the tremolo to work on my own presets (using the AC30 or Fender models). On the factory patches tremelo works fine though... This is really weird...I have been using the 11Rack for quite a while now without such issues and I am no beginner to daw recording - that's why I am really really puzzled. Cheers. |

Below is a screenshot of the PT GUI that I have on my computer setting Multi FX to work with the Vol1/Vol2 controls on the Plexi front panel - but, from what I've read you are getting different results, well, you must be if Vol1/Vol2 are turning up in the drop down combo. So I'm completely bamboolzed. Now seeing as my GUI has different results to yours I will just re-iterate that: Gain 1 works for "Vol1" Gain 2 works for "Vol2" So people aren't wondering what the frak I am talking about. Sorry I couldn't help you with this - I really thought I could, perhaps the 11R resident expert will be able to help - Obi Wan Benoni .

Re: 11 Rack & Expression Pedal as Wah and Multiple EFX
Hey Vercingetorix,
here are 2 snapshots of my GUI: showing the incorrect (and inaccessible parameters on a plexi): ScreenshotGUI-Plexi showing the correct parameters labeled volume 1 and volume too (on a J45). ScreenshotGUI-JTM I made both screenshots from the same Protools session - that means, the correct AND the incorrect parameters show up in the same session (on different amp models though). From the Menu on the 11Rack itself I can make every setting work - it's only the GUI that is behaving strangely. |

But that screenshot you made with Amp controls has a number of options missing, plus an option that I don't have "intensity". The only thing I can put it down to is that there is a difference in GUI's dependant on the OS. Which I find extremely strange. With a product like this we would expect complete uniformity. And different settings showing up for the same thing - well, that's just bleeped. I'm happy that you where able to hunt down the settings you needed through the 11R window, but, you really shouldn't have to. Bad form Avid .

Re: 11 Rack & Expression Pedal as Wah and Multiple EFX
This may be your problem.
The ERXP (a.k.a. Firmware 2.0/2.0.1) requires PT 8.0.5 and up. Quote:
