patching my m13 stompbox?

ok so, i need to patch my new stompbox i got about 3 weeks ago,i have no idea how to. idont know if i need to buy a cable to put in the midi in my computer or how to patch. can someone help me please, be very detailed cause i am so confused.

Congrats with your purchase.

To patch the stompbox (I presume you mean updating?), you will need a midi-connection between your PC and your m13. You can buy such a cable at an instrument-shop. Ask the salesperson, and they should be able to help you, as this is a very common cable. Ask for a usb-midi cable.

When you have everything installed (read the cable-manual), you connect the cable to a usb-port, and the other side to the m13 midi-in and midi-out. Mind, this is not at random, there is a midi-out cable, and a midi-in cable, connect them the right way.

After that you’ll need the patch from the line 6 website, and a program called Midi OX (freeware, search google).

The following procedure is copied from the Line 6 website:

Additional Instructions for WINDOWS Users Using MIDI Ox:

1. Make sure the Driver is installed and working.

2. Run the MIDI Ox application.

3. Go to Option, then MIDI Devices; select USB Audio Device for both MIDI Inputs and MIDI Outputs; uncheck Automatically Attach Inputs To Outputs During Selection; click OK to accept it.

4. Go to View, then Port Routing; delete the connection between Input Ports and Output ports if they are connected; make sure only MIDI Ox Event Port connects to Output Ports.

5. Go to View, then Sysex; in Sysex View and Scratchpad, go to Sysex, then Configure, make sure to check Delay After F7 and set the Delay (Milliseconds Between Buffers) to 60ms; click OK to accept.

Now you’re ready to go. One more thing: If the update fails when using a USB hub, please try it without the hub.

PROCEDURE:

***WARNING: Updating your firmware will erase user created scenes. Please back up your scenes as described in the M13 Scene Backup document and the M13 Advanced User’s Guide.***

1. Connect your MIDI interface to your computer via USB cable.

2. Connect the M13 MIDI Out to your MIDI interface In, and connect the M13 MIDI In to your MIDI interface Out.

3. Power on the M13 while pressing and holding down the ‘Model Select’ knob in FX UNIT 1 to put the M13 into FLASH UPDATE MODE.

4. Make sure your computer is set up to ‘see’ the MIDI interface (on Mac, you must configure Audio MIDI Setup — on Win, see ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS For Windows Users above).

5. Download the latest M13 Firmware from the Line 6 website (log in with your Line 6 User Name).

6. Launch your sysex app and select your MIDI interface Out port (for Sysex Librarian, use the top dropdown menu — for MIDI Ox, select Options/MIDI Devices).

7. Load the M13 sysex file (in Sysex Librarian, select ‘Add to Library’ from the File menu; In MIDI Ox, select Actions/Send>’SysEx File…’ and the ‘Sysex View and Scratchpad will pop up.

8. Press Play (in Sysex Librarian). If using MIDI-OX, select ‘Send Sysex File’ from the ‘File’ menu of the ‘Sysex View and Scratchpad Window’. A file browser will open for you to navigate to the M13 sysex file you downloaded from the Line 6 website. Select the M13 sysex file and click ‘Open.’

9. The M13 will receive the sysex data and the unit will be updated to the latest Firmware. It sometimes takes 30 seconds to 1 minute to appear like the unit is receiving the update and takes about 8-10 minutes to complete. The M13 will re-initialize when the update is complete and the screens will light up with the new factory presets.

Anymore questions?
Feel free to ask.

Where can I buy this stompbox?

I really need one =P

Sick pedal. I’m not sure if it’s an early version of Wamplers Talent Booster or not, because there’s is just a booster pedal I think, and this looks like it might be more of an overdrive pedal…. or, it’s just some awesome joke.

If it’s a fake pedal, it’d still be cool to have on a pedal board, as a joke pedal… make it a true bypass pedal that just had an LED light on it or something.
