It seems the results can often be hard to replicate and just wonder if anyone often uses it for sample fodder to save all the special moments for later looping/pads/soundscapes.
I’ve not done this a lot specifically, but you’d have to turn monitoring off of course due to the feedback if you have fx on the input.
What I use the Mood mk2 for mostly is I send to it and then tweak until it sounds nice then just keep the mood running in the background. Great for adding some atmosphere to the music. I’ve occasionally recorded this into a sampler to be able to reuse, but then I’ve disabled fx on the input on mood and disabled monitoring on digitakt due to above mentioned feedback
Edit: you can of course also just unplug the mood input to stop feedback

This is how I use my Mood MK II: send something simple into it, turn some knobs until I like what I’m hearing, record that for a while, adjust some knobs and keep recording etc. I can then later see what I can make out of that material. Imo it’s definitely a pedal that lives when you accept that you will never get that exact sound back and appreciate these fleeting moments.

There’s the Dry Kill switch that will make it a proper send effect when engaged:
DRY KILL
Removes your clean signal from the output of the
pedal (even when bypassed).

Cool, they should’ve put that on the front panel

That’s great. I love the sounds people are making with this, I guess some of things like reverbs and delays are easy enough to reproduce but that microlooper seems less so. It’s a shame it doesn’t have more save slots or something.
One thing I’m trying to understand is if the microlooper has some sort of live mode, like it keeps recording new loops while deleting the old ones? Maybe that’s not a real thing.
I have an iOS app that would record anything over a certain threshold and send it to the effects then when you play anything else over the threshold it clears the old and part out. Is anything like this at all possible?

Just use the fade hidden control and latch on overdub

Thats great news
you can also activate the no-dub dip switch for a radical delete

Seems to be a very deep machine with many many combinations. I might have to print a manual out and keep it near at all times.
you bought it second hand ? new it is sold with a very handy little manual …
Yes definitely this pedal is awesome, there is so much to experiment !!!

No I haven’t got one yet. I’m hoping to buy one today. Glad to hear it comes with a manual, I wish more companies would do that.

Best thing about your setup is you can send it clock so you’re all synced up. It really changes the entire pedal, and it’s really the only thing I wish I could change. I like how they implemented the tap tempo option on Onward and Lost + Found. Perhaps there’s too many button combos here already. But yes, using midi clock makes it much easier to reproduce more predictable results!

Very cool. I suppose with the dt2 I could even save many parameters/ 2 pages worth and label them in the dt2 essentially making presets, even use the lfos to modulate.
Do you know what type of midi trs cable it takes? The manual say a standard trs but my understanding is there are two types.

I use the CBA MIDIBox and standard TRS cables, but I believe you can use one of these cables and go straight into the DT2.
Will this create some sort of feedback loop on digitakt 2?
I now know that, yes it does create a feedback loop, the likes of which will blow you face right off!
I have read different opinions and experiences with the Disaster Area cables.
So far, I’ve tried with a regular TRS to DIN adapter. It was working fine until I noticed really weird behaviors.
I think I have come to a point in which I like seeing Mood as a separate un-synced universe

perhaps you could mess with DT monitoring being on/off to avoid loops?

I can’t figure out how to loop it without feedback. The closest I can come is to blindly sample and check the results so pointless so far.
