.: Guitar effect patches for zoom B3 :..
I've had a B3 for a while now and never really sat and used it to it's full potential. Essentially, it's been a glorified tuner I'm just recently getting to grips with it, but I'm not really sure I fully understand the concept - I'm looking for an expert to help me out!
Is it just me that can't seem to press the two pedals simultaneously?! Does the bank function mean that you can access more than 3 pedals within one patch? Is there no option to go past J9 and create K0, 1, 2, 3 etc? I've just bought one myself. Although I am not an expert I'll have a go at answering some of your questions. In addition, if you use memory hungry effects together the B3 may not be able to run them all.
It then bypasses one of them. The graphic of the affected effect reflects the bypass with a cable running horizontally through the screen of that effect. I believe the amp models are the most resource hungry effects.
Buggered if I know. Until you get a feel for it perhaps yes. I think you are limited to three at a time. Yes, if you scroll through them using the up and down "TYPE" buttons at the top of the screen where you want the effect. The unit seems designed with the intent that you have your patches worked out and stored in a sequence that you can scroll through quickly with the footswitches.
That way, you can give them names that are relevant to your set. Changing effects within a patch can't be done with the footswitches though. You'd have to reach down and press the "TYPE" buttons.
I think so. If I overwrite the unit autosaves patch changes a patch that I want to restore later it's still on the laptop. Not onboard the unit. Any help greatly appreciated so I can finally get some proper use out of this machine. You're welcome. I hope my limited knowledge helps. This is also a great topic for other users to chip in with their findings. The B3n will do seven patches in a chain and I read that it has better quality sims. It gets rid of the XLR out though. I'm dead happy with the relative simplicity of three effects at a time in the B3 for now.
I have used mine both as 3 stand alone pedals and multiple pedals combined into patches. It kind of depends on the band. I'm in a fairly loose pub covers band and it's fun to have different effects and use them on the fly however I fancy. Depping in a more formal function band I will load up the entire set, each patch labelled with each song title in set order and just move through a patch at a time. If one song calls for something different under a solo or wotnot I will copy the main patch tweak it for whatever the change is save the tweaked patch adjacent to the original then just go up to it as and when the song calls for it.
That way I don't have to think just keep pressing the button to call up the next patch as and when needed. Labelling patches is important as it ensures I know where I am if, say the box gets stomped accidentally. When I use it as 3 stand alone pedals I can of course choose another three, six, nine whatever, but six is my maximum for ease.
That way if just one song has synth on it I go back out of home into bank, up to A2, out of bank and back to home. I can keep my compressor on throughout the gig but have that synth and flanger ready for that one song. The change sounds fiddly but in reality doing it between songs takes less time than a guitarist uses to check themselves in the mirror.
I made a simpler list of individual effects in order to know roughly where they are among the Here's a copy that might prove useful:.

For some reason it comes through thin sounding here, though it is definitely a more mid-focused square fuzz.
Bah, should've recorded through an amp sim. Patch is bypass by default, then Pitch Shift, MonoPitch, and Octaver all set to soloed so you can quickly compare some of the different octave sounds.
First crack at a plucked double-bass type sound. Make sure to play like you're using a double bass - with fingers, and near the neck. Quick attempt to compare various compressors. Fingered run, then picked run, both with obnoxiously accented attacks at the end. I did my best to setup each comp similarly so you can hear their performance and tonal differences. Check the shared patch for my exact settings. Best attempt to create a couple patches that sound somewhat like a classic Civil War muff using my Wren and Cuff Box of War tone as a template.
All of my current synth patches. Whipped up a fairly simple synth bass line using jumped octaves which are typically a challenge for most monophonic pitch tracking effects. Another attempt to create a patch that sound somewhat like a classic Civil War muff using my Wren and Cuff Box of War tone as a template. This one soundsa little more creamy due to the heavy compression, and I think tonally less thin and brittle in the top end due to using a preamp as a tone shaper to roll off the highs and scoop the mids.
On the downside, no noise gate so it has an audible noise floor. Patch I made for a bridge in one of my band's new songs. Has a fairly fat envelope filter with an optional ducking delay which sounds great with held notes as the delay fades in. You'll likely need to adjust the filter sens as my bass has a fairly high output so it opens the filter easily, some of my other instruments require a bump in sens.
Patch I made to test out three comps. Theoretically set for similar output levels and overall compression action so you get to hear the difference of the comp models.
I personally tend to favor and D-Comp models. I couldn't really nail the specific tone but I think it gives you an overall static LPF quality which could be good for reggea, dub, etc. If you need more highs in the tone adjust the Frequency in the splitter.
