Global Blocks
- Global Blocks are discussed in this Wicked Wiki thread.
- View this video (Katsu Kuri Media).
Global Blocks: exporting or backing up
- When backing up a preset with global blocks, you also always need to backup the System too, to restore the stored data.
Global Blocks: modifier parameters and controller settings
- Modifier settings are not saved within Global Blocks. The same goes for controllers settings. You can use Effect Recall to copy controller settings from one preset to another.
Global Blocks: global control of Bypass state
- The state (On/Off) of a Global block is saved per preset. This means you can set Global Block #1 Off in one preset, and On in another.
- If you want global control of the bypass state of an effect block, here's a solution:
- Attach the Bypass parameter of the effect block to an External controller.
- In the I/O menu, switch the External controller between 0% or 100% to change the effect's Bypass state. Or assign a switch on your foot controller to the MIDI CC of the External Controller to switch the block.
- This works with global and non-global blocks, and across all presets with the same effect block.
Global Blocks: Noise Gate and Level
- The Noise Gate in the GTE/IN menu, including the Level control on that page, can also be linked to a global block.
Global Blocks: unlinking
- You can unlink a global block as follows:
- within the global block menu
- by using STRIP ALL GLOBAL DATA in Utility
- by pressing Enter while in the Recall menu
- by using Axe-Edit or Fractal-Bot.
