Looks interesting! Thanks for sharing...will check it out. And again, I bet no one will play surf when they release the 'introductory video' — |

OK, I am a bit of a 'foot gazer' these things looks cool, to be able to change the pedal, neat. 'Surf Music Lasts Forever' |

Oh, I got this wrong. This is just a plugin? — |

I checked the web sites. New concept. Its a single pedal/stomp box that you can download different effects to. Like installing a new app on your ipad, only one effect at a time though. Cool idea 'Surf Music Lasts Forever' Last edited: May 18, 2012 04:46:55 |

Wow! That's a fantastic & innovative product idea. Love that they have "try & (then) buy" - at least that's what the advertising video says. $150 for the iStomp case, and a growing number of pedal models for $6.99 - $9.99 a pop (some for $0.99, some for $0.00) in-app purchases. Pretty compelling offer. Maybe even more so if they bundled a muli-pedal price break - 1 for $150, 2 for $290, 3 for $400 or whatever ( Hmmm.. where's that hiring requisition for product manager) —Fady El Mirage @ ReverbNation |

I took a look at this last time I was in a guitar center. It really is a genius idea. I was wondering about the prices of the apps, but Fady cleared it up. Now, if Fender can figure out a way to put their Amplitube 63 Reverb algorhythm in app form for this...mmmmmmm...mmmm —THE KBK ... This is the last known signal. We offer Sanctuary. www.thekbk.com |

Damn. These days it seems you can't play guitar if you don't have an iPhone —Old punks never die... They just become surf rockers. Last edited: May 18, 2012 14:25:08 |

I suppose this is the logical consequence of the FPGA movement. No chips, just chip emulators. ... Wait, somebody just texted me on my pedal. I can't tap my toes and play at the same time. Not for me. It doesn't have the warmth of an authentic "hard" pedal. Last edited: May 18, 2012 16:18:16 |

i think for me the attraction isnt to have a pedal that would be the core of my tone, but to have something flexible that i can use like a 'swiss army knife' where it has tons of tools even though none of them are really super good examples of that tool i don't use modulations very often but every now and then i find myself thinking 'i could really use a (insert random modulation) right now" i don't want to have to lug around a phaser, flanger, chorus, auto wah,etc when im only going to really use one of those at once and maybe only a few times during a gig —http://dinosaurghost.bandcamp.com/ |

Hobbyists have a new piece of gear that will be obsolete in a couple years to debate the tonal/ease of use advantages of. |

I can see it being a useful and inexpensive studio tool if they get some licensed apps for it. —THE KBK ... This is the last known signal. We offer Sanctuary. www.thekbk.com |
