Fractal Audio Systems mystery product speculation

[Mongillo19]

Uh ok, maybe the non-turbo mkI version was 999... anyway I still predict 599 or 649 at max

I hope you are right but I'm going to also say it's above that

Why Am I Such An Asshole?

For those who think it's easier to annoy you than to Google 'Why am i such an asshole?' themselves.

Have you seen what the BigSky MX goes for? I don't think this will be cheaper...

You bastard. I clicked that thinking I was going to get some Rick Astley action but ended up hearing that useless c*nt.

Boo sir, boo I say.

$699 best case.

$799 likely.

Ok so IF I was to pair the VP4 with the QC I wouldn't run it in 4CM as that would eliminate stereo from what I can tell. So QC up front for pre effects, amps, and cabs. VP4 after QC out 1 in stereo. QC out 2 mono to the dry middle cab for WDW.

Could be good.

I bet no one here could figure it out and know how the fuck to run it.

Including @JiveTurkey !!!!

Direct competitors for this are the Hx Fx and Plethora X5 though, both of those are around 600$ iirc.

If we take the big sky mx as a price reference an axe fx should cost 187,000$ then!

Cliff, will this have identical foot switch programability as the FC’s? Will it have traditional effects blocks with channels, or singular effects on the grid?

I envision a smaller, lighter pedalboard with my IR-X (or the IR-J when that releases) and the VP4. Cliff, you sonofabitch, I'm in.

I already have a stomp XL, and only use like 4 or 5 effects, so, not for me, but I do wonder, what the block/DSP limit is, does it have EVERY effect they offer, footswitching options, etc.

And you think it'll be priced <= HX Effects? I just don't think so... but hey I hope you're right!

 

[paisleywookiee]

Definitely not the Plethora, since it has a plethora of bleh tones.

 

[Hapless]

Yeah, me too. But this is new and shiny.

Analog up front, digital in the loop

This is the way
