Upcoming product: Virtual Pedalboard with 4 foot switches (VP4).
4 simultaneous effects. Plus gate, EQ and loop.
FRACTAL AUDIO QUOTES
[1] It's not a replacement for any of our current products.
[2] (Does it come with a power supply included?) Yes
[3] One to the right is a power button.
[4] (Can it run a Dual Detune, Reverb, Delay and a Plex Delay simultaneously, in a non-economy algo mode?)
Yes[5] In L = Guitar
Out L = Preamp In
In R = Preamp Out
Out R = Power amp In[6] It uses a new, streamlined UI.
[7] 254mm x 160.3mm
[8] It does have channels and scenes and presets, etc. but in a simplified approach. Its primary application is live performance and the UI was designed with that in mind.
It sounds very good. It has the analog path from the Axe-Fx III (which evolved from the FX-8). Beta testers report that it "plays nicely" with difficult fx loops.[9] (Turn the select knob to highlight a block, press Enter to edit the block, turn the corresponding A-D knob to adjust value, page arrow to get to other pages)
That's exactly how it works.
