Ya, you can record it. But you have to select it as an effect. you CANT resample the master filter. I dont have it in front of me, but scroll through the effects list until you see iso/fil or something along those lines, then set the effects to INS RECORD, and resample away

so youre saying that its possible to use iso/fil as an effect on patch A? as in iso/fil is actually an effect in the fx processor.. ok. i can see that... but what about on patch B where the ACTUAL filter is. is there anyway to sample the patch B filter internally without using the fx processor?


i mean i know you have to have the fx indicator light on to use either the fx or the iso/fil. but shouldnt you be able to run the sample through the filter and back through a channel to resample it?? :-/

sorry if that didnt make any sense.. lol this is getting a tad frustrating.

ya you can resample after going through the filter, but only when you use the iso/filter as an effect. You CANT run the sound through the master filter and resample/record it (internally anyways). It will sound like you are recording it, but when you listen to the track, it will sound exactly the same as the original.

That master ISO/Filter in B is for 'live' use only, and cannot be recorded.

and BTW, the FX version of the Iso/Filter is identical to the 'master' A iso/filter. It is kinda ass backwards.

I think their logic was to have a cool effect like a flanger running in the fx processor, they you'd hit the A->B button, crank down the cutoff or bass or whatever, hit the A->B button again, and you would have your flanger back, without having to change patches and lose your tweaks.

clear as mud?

well knowing that i can get back to memorizing the location of all 40 trillion fx possibilities on the processor.. :p

hehe no problemo Justin. That 808 was my first piece of gear, and it took a while to get my head wrapped around it. For a 'groovebox', its pretty deep.

Have fun!
