--- DON'T SWITCH OFF ANNOTATIONS! --- READ DESCRIPTION! ---


A lot of people have asked me to put up a video showing how to program the Map of the Problematique effect into the Molten Midi 2, so here it finally is. I have included thorough step-by-step instructions in the annotations, just because it would've been too messy putting them in during video editing.

For the record, the Whammy is set to Octave Up/Down harmony, and the steps that I programmed into the Molten Midi are as follows (where -8 is octave down, 0 is unity, and +8 is octave up): -8, 0, +8, 0, +8, 0, -8, 0, +8, 0, +8, 0, -8, 0, +8, 0.

The Molten Midi needs to have a positive-tip plug powering it. Your standard Boss adapter will not do - it needs to have a polarity reversing jumper like the Godlyke Power-All reverse polarity jumper cable (the red cable you see in my other Molten Midi 2 video). The red cable powering the Molten Midi in this video is the positive-tip cable that came with my Cioks AC-10 power supply.

If you want any pedals custom-built or modded, hit Tim up at http://www.toyroomguitareffects.com/. He does good quality work.

  • can also be a whammy midi controller??

  • @420Chema that's what it is.

  • @letsgetcarriedaway Hi! Awesome video, but I have a little prob. Everything went well until the programming of the octaves. It wouldn't change the tone. Is there anything I'm doing wrong, or something I didn't do? Thanks man!

  • @AskoyFK what do you mean it won't change the tone? are you able to scroll up/down semitone by semitone with the click wheel? where exactly does it go wrong?

  • How do u get Matt belays tone just with the whammy pedal with no mods I don't want a map of the.... Tone but just a regular muse tone

  • @greendaycovers1000 the whammy isn't a part of matt bellamy's tone, it's just a pitchshifter. if you want bellamy's distorted tone, you can either use a high-gain fuzz or distortion - i used my amp distortion for this demo (kustom 72 coupe combo).

  • i have this pedal and can never get the timing right with tap tempo or with the usb interface that's pretty much the big downside because you can't play a long to the song. any tips? seems that you might now how to get the timing right

  • lol. nice i seriously didnt know what was going on for the most part of it but i was still impressed

  • As for his Fuzz, if this hasn't been answered yet, he has ZVex Fuzz Factory pedals built in his guitars. I had one but traded it for a Whammy WH-1 straight up.

  • You need a sustainer pickup but good video

  • Little faster , but Good !

  • Wow, perfect. I think Bellamy would be impressed if he saw this setup.

  • This a great video! it helped me alot...one more thing WHY DOES MATT BELLAMY HAVE TO BE A FREAKING GENIUS!!!!

  • @letsgetcarriedaway Sorry man, found out of it. I've just started using the Whammy, so i didn't put the output in the "wet-added". Great video, got it working now. Thanks!
