The Soundblox Hub and Hub Manager announce the exciting new concept of “smart” effects pedal boards, bringing a professional level of sophistication and control to the effects rigs of guitar and bassists of all levels. “High-end effects touring rigs are expensive and complicated,” says Source Audio founder, Roger Smith. “The Hub and Hub Manager make it easy for musicians to gain superior and powerful control over their effects pedal collections.”

The Soundblox Hub, originally released in October of 2013, provides the flexibility and power of a complex multi-effects unit with the simplicity of individual stompboxes. The Hub is a compact unit that connects with up to five of Source Audio’s highly flexible Soundblox 2 pedals, unlocking their MIDI capabilities and uniting them into a powerful multi-effects processor and switching system. The Hub allows users to save the on/off states and knob settings of each connected pedal to create up to 128 unique multi-pedal presets (or "scenes”). Simply dial in a sound with the pedals, then save the state of the entire pedal board with a single button press on the Hub. Scenes can then be recalled with any external MIDI foot-switcher or device that sends MIDI Program Change messages.

The Hub Manager is the perfect companion software to the Soundblox Hub. It offers an extremely intuitive interface and easy-to-understand graphic display. With the Hub Manager, users can edit scenes, name them, export/import scene files, and share them with other Hub owners. The graphics make it refreshingly simple to understand the components of each pedal board scene - simply click a pedal image to reveal a straightforward graphic display of that pedal’s knob settings and external control assignments. The Hub connects to all Windows or Mac computers with a standard USB cable via the Hub’s USB port.

The Hub and Hub Manager also take full advantage of Source Audio’s digital approach to effect processing. Unlike traditional stompboxes, Soundblox 2 pedals are a constantly evolving technology. Through software and firmware updates, Source Audio has the power to periodically update and improve products already released to the market. Source Audio regularly posts the latest firmware updates to their website (sourceaudio.net) - the Hub Manager gives users the ability to easily download and organize new firmware updates, ensuring their existing pedals will never become outdated.

The Soundblox Hub, with its USB, 5-pin MIDI, and Multi-Function ports, provides tremendous flexibility and many opportunities for future Source Audio products. Currently, Source Audio is developing a flexible and highly configurable MIDI foot controller as well as a dedicated effects loop add-on device that will make it possible to integrate any non-Source Audio effects pedal into the Soundblox Hub’s scene saving and effect switching system.
