Title: NAMM 2016 - cool
Post by: madbean on January 22, 2016, 04:24:36 PM
Man, lots of good stuff coming out! I've been watching the TGP threads and there are some amazing pedals being put out. I kinda had to laugh a bit at the Chase Bliss Tonal Recall :) A good idea is a good idea.

I've managed to ween myself off TGP completely. No bookmarks, no random browsing, nothing...

You will not tempt me back to the dark side...

Right off the bat, the new mini Ernie Ball VPs look awesome and the "they should have done it in the first place" Digitech Trio with a looper built in. The new Ditto with the multiple loops looks pretty cool also.

I have lost hours on Instagram trying to stay up with the new NAMM gear.

The new earthquaker stuff all looks good. They are on a roll it would seem.

Saw this demo and it sounded really good to me.

If I wanted a tape echo I think I'd just go for this.


Also, eurorack stuff has gone nuts (in a good way of course):

One of the ex-pedal-makers in I Dream Of Wires commented that he moved to Euro, because if you make a pedal with 19 knobs, no one is going to buy it because they won't know wtf to do with it. Er... tldr I guess I mean you can get away with sixteen tap stuff in Euro easier than you could in a stompbox :)

19 knobs on a pedal?   :o

Anything over three knobs on a pedal is a waste in my opinion. Overkill. Except for maybe a 3 band EQ on a dirt pedal. Everything else, the less knobs, the better. MXR and EHX had it right with their one knob chorus and phasers.
