Thanks Kim
And differently from Headrush Pedalboard and Ampero I own and use too, I appreciate the analog feeling, tone, real amp kind of dynamic response the Bulava preamp delivers
Not to mention the joy to immediately modify the tones just reaching all the pots on it (no enter, change setting, save, exit menus you know)
I need to change the direction⊠better invert the data sent by expression oedal connected to Chocolate.
Actually he sent 0 when itâs down and 127 on up (or the opposite I donât gave the device in front of me)
This is because I must replicatw the same movemt of my real whammy, but on chicokate itâs opposite.
Also I know the now itâs possible to do internally in the app but⊠well Iâm new (or quite) in midi command.
Can someone help meâŠIâm using chanbel 16âŠ
Thanks
I recall that i had the same problem, and that this feature is available, but only in âadvanced custom modeâ.
You will need range 127-0 instead of default 0-127 for that:

@jon and all
I have another question. Itâs strange but probably this is a limit of Chocolate or of the midi connection.
Iâve assigned the expression pedal to the whammy plugin, it correctly work now and also I have saved the configuration in the User setup.
When I load the whammy plugin in a pedalboard the setup is on default and not the saved one⊠if I recall the User saved setup, all the data are correctly recalled BUT NOT the midi assignment. I must press the double arrow, select midi and moving the expression pedal, after that the correct assignment is completed.
NOTE: this happens with all the plugin I have tested (wah-wah, volume control, etc.)
There is something wrong?
@Rino2 did I get it well that this happens when you drop a new time whammy (or any other effect) in a new pedalboard or simply another instance of it?
If yes, that is expected behavior since the assignments are not done on a plugin basis, yet on a pedalboard basis. So if you create a new pedalboard using plugins that youâve used and assign controllers for it before, you will need to do it again.

Thanks,
I thought that saving an user setup saved the selected pedal or knob as well as the parameters
Just got myself a Chocolate, too.
Nice little toy and quite nice for that ridicoulously low price.
I have an addition to the great instructions by @SrMouraSilva :
A little change in the section âControl an effect with the MIDI and the Mod Dwarf Footswitchâ makes it possible to use both controls independently:
Set the CV logic Operator to âXORâ instead of âORâ.
(This means output is âonâ only when exactly one of the two âControl to CVâ is on and the other is off, and output is âoffâ when both Control to CV are âonâ or both are âoffâ.)
Now any press of either the Dwarf footswitch or the Chocolate Switch will toggle the state of the controlled plugin.
Of course the problem of missing visual feedback remains, but we had that before anywayâŠ

@Casanunda this is a great idea!
I have a chocolate too. I use it for switching snapshots with program change commands. The chocolate is in program change mode.
The program change command is send when I release the foot switch of the chocolate. Has anybodyelse this behavior too? Does anybody know, if it is possible to send program change commands directly with a down press of a foot switch of the chocolate?

In advanced custom mode, set the footswitch option to âMode: Step short or step longâ, this allow you to set messages on step on and step off, just leave de step off empty.
Best,

Youâre right. I wasnât aware of this problem. As @danielblues says, you can use the Advanced Custom Mode for a specific setup. But the major problem of this mode is that it doesnât display any feedback on the Chocolate screen. So thereâs a dilemma between ease of use and visual feedback.

@danielblues and @funkypou thank you for your help!
I need the visual feedback and I need several banks in order to access my snaphots during live playing. So I will try to get used to it that the program change messages are send when I release the button of the chocolate. I find it not so easy to change a snapshot with the release of a button precisely while playing.
Nevertheless the chocolate is a nice midi controller considered its price and the nice small form factor.

Sure, and I just found that if you keep pressing too long before releasing, like if you want to prepare in advance, it doesnât send the PC message.
Hello Pessal!
The chocolate midi only has one input for the TRS pedal, would it be possible to add one more?
I want to use one for the TRS midi connection and the other for the expression pedal! Has anyone here tried it?
I think it is not possible.
I have open it (itâs in my nature!!) but internally there is nothing except a custom IC and the battery. Also⊠itâs not only a matter of phisical connection but also of internal firmware and external app.
In my opinion the only solution is to use 2 chocolade with an USB Hub but I have not tested it.
Edit⊠why you need a TRS midi connection? Connect Chocolade to Dwarf via usb!!

Having looked at the internals of my MVave I agree with @Rino2, I believe it would require significant re-engineering of the system to support 2 TRS.
My setup is as follows.

Is there anything like a âtoggle switchâ plugin (either CV or MIDI) in the plugin store?
Right now I have to program each Chocolate button to either be âmomentary onâ or âlatchingâ.
Of course this is now valid for every pedalboard.
It would be cool to set all the buttons to âmomentary onâ and then have âtoggle on/offâ plugin (that switches its state every time it receives a signal) make it latching if I need that in a pedalboard!
More freedom / possibilities with each pedalboardâŠ
Maybe you are looking for something (or exactly) like this plugin:

Hello all,
Is anyone has already seen the GWF4 Wireless Footswitch? Or Mooer Prime P1 controller? It is footswitch controller with led status indicators. They are sold for controlling GWF4 or Mooer Prime P1.
If someone has this equipment, could you talk if it is connectable with computer or smartphone or only with the âofficial compatible equipmentsâ. If is connectable, it may would be an alternative for chocolate with leds!

I question it on a Mooer forum

Someone told me that the wifi connection is a private protocol that works only with Mooer products. Also, the USB works only for power charging
