I have several V2 Strymon Pedals (Flint, Lex, Zelzah) and they are all great pedals. There’s a ton of functionality in these and I love that they are MIDI enabled. In order to really fine tune and easily save my programs in these pedals and make them easily recallable via MIDI, it would be so helpful if the parameters could be adjusted via a computer program and if programs could be saved via a computer program. Is there any plans to enable NIXIE 2 to interface with these pedals? If so, would that likely happen via the USB-C interface in the pedals? If I have them connected via a Strymon Conduit, perhaps you could design and interface that would allow communication with the pedals via the Conduit USB-C port? That would be amazing and so ideal!
Hey there! We actually just went live with a new version of Nixie that will eventually work with all of our V2 pedals! Currently it only supports Cloudburst, Iridium, and TimeLine, BigSky, and Mobius, but stay tuned to our social media and newsletter to be the first to hear about new pedals being added to Nixie 2.
Hi!
Is there any other incoming update for the Iridium, like more tweak options on the amps or something?
