Super low volume with my mood mk2 or nothing registering. driving me mad
Was testing with my pro3 last night.
9v,500mAmp Boss power supply
Stereo outs from Pro 3 --> Mood MKII --> TRS to separate tip and ring sleeve TS --> stereo ins on Mixer

It’s not ideal or always possible, but I often use the headphone out of my prophet/ob-6/0-Coast/Strega for a softer signal.
Highly recommend the MIDIbox. I have two and about to buy a third to accommodate Clean and a second Mood. They work flawlessly when hooked up over midi-usb to program the presets on pedalzombie.com.

mea culpa. i had my stereo routing messed up. I thought inputs were two ts instead of one trs 
. used another two tip and ring sleeve ts to trs for inputs and shazaam, magic music making. sounds amazing with spread on after running through different combinations. going to chain with the WA julianna (though that stereo chorus kills all my low end 
)

I am currently using a DAD MIDI Box 4 and have trouble controlling my MOOD II.
It works perfectly with my GenLoss2 though. Simplest test is bypassing the unit.
Have you succeeded in controlling the MOOD II with MIDI signals?
I was able to improve the control using the Chase Bliss brand MIDI Box, but I wasn’t enjoying it very much if I am being honest. I realized that I have a solid enough understanding of the box to get what I want using the controls and the two presets. The whole MIDI setup felt to convoluted without a program to control and organize the presets from a computer or whatever.

Just received mine. Really like it, especially when used with Onward before it. It’s exactly the thing I was hoping for to make textures that aren’t too synced/grid like and breath air into a groove.
It’s kinda hard to understand what’s going on, but easy enough to dial in a big variation of effects. I will most likely never be able to reproduce that, but I just keep my DT ready to sample and move on.

Old thread and product, but the Mood Mk1 being mono has come in handy for me many times. It’s so nice to build an ambient sound that you don’t have to worry about falling apart in mono. Also, making drones on it and sampling into an old mono sampler like a Mirage is so fun.

is it because the spread is too wide? you can control the spread to hopefully make it more mono friendly/lose only a little information when summed.
favorite comment on Elektronauts. Ever.

Has CBA said why they’re so against going with Type A or Type B cables?
I could understand if they were leading the way forward, but it doesn’t seem that way.
I have DA MIDI Box so I can covert MIDI to CBA, but no converter box or cables really would be even better.
It’s because they use the one trs port for midi and external foot switch control from the same port simultaneously
You could argue it’s not worth all the midi boxes or adapters, since you can also just use midi to control the foot switches.
it does get the most out of the port which I am into
I had a setup where I used midi to clock the blooper on a table and external footswitch to trigger the record door switch, but once I got a midi controller with foot switches (mc6 pro) it’s just easier to use use midi for everything
