FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Got questions? We figured you might. Here are the answers to some of the most common ones:
Q: What happens if I've forgotten one of the cables and I'm at the gig and it's too late to get a
replacement? Will the Mo' Control work with only one or the other?
A: If you forget the instrument (bypass) cable, the Mo' Control will work with the DB9 cable only
with the exception of the Bypass, which will simply be inactive. However, without the DB9
cable, the Mo' Control will not work in any capacity.
Q: Why can't I program any Preset Groups? I'm holding the switch down, but all it does is turn the
group off.
A: Set the Preset Group Mode switch on Mo' Control's rear panel to "Program."
Q: I'd like to make the Mo' Control a part of my custom pedalboard, but the rubber feet are
keeping me from being able to velcro the bottom down to the pedalboard itself. I don't see
any screws holding the feet in, and they're difficult to get out. What's up?
A: We wanted to keep the Mo' Control as low to the ground as possible and still provide a rubber
non-skid surface that doesn't just "stick on" on the Mo' Control. The rubber feet have four
expanding "claws" on their back sides and hold in place extremely well. If you can't remove
the rubber feet from the outside, unscrew the bottom panel. Then you can push the claws
through the holes from the backside. If you ever want to re-attach the feet, just push the claws
back through the six holes on the bottom panel.
Q: Can I program and store EQ and other Mo' Bass settings with the Preset Groups on the
Mo' Control?
A: Unfortunately, no. The Mo' Bass is an analog device. It will store combinations of sounds, but
not the Mo' Bass settings themselves. If you have a MIDI-capable external effects device, you
can program and store whatever you want on that device to correlate with the Preset Groups
on the Mo' Control. We briefly considered equipping the Mo' Control and Mo' Bass with some
kind of digital-analog controlling device—visions of knobs flying around at the touch of a
switch filled the air—but when we realized it would raise the cost of the Mo' Bass to around
$5,000 retail, we thought better of it.
Q: Now that I own the Mo' Control, I have all sorts of questions about levels, effects, what
happens at the XLR outs, how best to run the power amps in the Mo' Bass... where should
I start?
A: You can start with the Frequently Asked Questions page (F1) in your Mo' Bass Owner's
Manual. We recommend a thorough re-reading of that manual in any event. For even more
detailed information, go to our website at: swrsound.com . Click on Products, then click on
Professional Series, and then Mo' Bass. A ton of compelling information awaits you. Finally,
you can always e-mail us at: support@swrsound.com, or call the factory at (818) 253-4797.
