For sure, we did this to ourselves.

I think Fractal will surprise us, it will be a pedal that does just one of their fx blocks: the ring modulator

The thing is...there was never any marketing tease for the Fractal product. Just a mention from Cliff

Which is the very definition of a 'Fractal Marketing Tease', right?

If it had some dynamics controllers built in this would 10000x cooler than a load box.

DELAYS and VERBS in a box.

Hoping this works like Beetlejuice...

I vote for a single-preset algorithm pedal: POLTERGEIST PIG

The Fractal equivalent of "Soon"?

The thing is...there was never any marketing tease for the Fractal product. Just a mention from Cliff on the forum that set off the all the wild speculation. It's not the same thing.

Facts be damned! Someone must be tarred and feathered. Always!

It was just Cliff engaging with his dear TGF virtual colleagues. His comment was made at this forum, not at the official channel.

Maybe he was trying to flash mob a crowdsource of a brainstorming session so he could focus on work and just casually check the results for anything he hadn’t thought of already.

brainstorming session

Based on everything posted over the last 100+ pages:

- somewhere between 2 and 62 footswitches
- improved UI while maintaining all of the legacy knobs and switches/buttons
- effects only, preferably delays and reverbs but also with a couple hundred amp models and IRs.
- just a single preset player with a few memory slots is 100% acceptable to about 8% of the forum.
- as small as a Stomp/Nano as long as it doesn't exceed an FM9 footprint

You forgot the second most expected feature: it shall satisfy @JiveTurkey 's darkest desires

Wrong

Edit: well, it's as "marketing tease" as Fractal ever gets. So I guess, but I'm not sure we're looking at it the same way

Also we need to write and official TGF member mail to Eric Klein and Cliff about the importance of cup holders instead of expression pedals. Cliffs half way there. Eric can certainly update Cliff about this as I believe it’s been a request for many years in the Helixverse.

I mean think about all the thousands of high end modelers being placed on the desktop at every other hobbyist homeplayer…. It will save all those desks from the ugly cup ring marks.

But are we having fun though?
