Fractal Audio Systems VP4 - Virtual Pedalboard

The Stomp Ruined It For EveryoneTM

I was so close to pulling the trigger on a VP4 last night but I just can't square how it would serve me any differently than what I already have. No doubt the effects are killer though. It would be SO much more usable for me with an amp+cab block - but I get it, that is not what it is.

Is the VP4 the same size as the Boss SDE-3000 pedal?

As an "amp and pedals guy," who has been mostly left out of Fractal releases for a long time , I'm really enjoying seeing the modeling crowd get left out for once.

When we were discussing dual detune the other day; this is the Boss stuff I was talking up. It's timestamped

I could never get anything this rich out of the MicroPitch. User error I would hope. FAS does a great job as well.

Wait what, excuse me, GX-10? So they have the GT-1000(Core) and its sexy cousin GX-100, and now Boss's flagship tech has been whittled down to $400?

Cool, so I’m not the only one who saw JTs post and went “wait, what is that thing?”

The quad cortex is the absolute perfect sized modeler IMO.

Sure, if you wear a size 2 shoe.

I could probably hit all 10 switches at the same time with my size 13 stompers

Use the tip of your foot! What do you do, just SLAM down the middle of your foot on a pedal?

Yep. I focus on my playing. Ain’t nobody got time for tiptoeing in the heat of battle.

“Pedals” are referred to as “stomp boxes” for a reason.

IDk man, I've always just used the front part of my foot where my shoes get a little pointy and never had an issue.

I wipe my ass with my right hand. Some people wipe with their left.

Omg, i wish i could find that clip with the Australian guy who wipes with one finger through a piece of paper and then clean the finger with the paper…. Such a funny thing.

I wiped my ass with the QC but it slipped in all the time. Now I use the FM3 and it's just perfect.

Years ago on UK kids TV, Blue Peter to be precise, someone in the army did this. It was a fucking great thing to see on mainstream non-cable telly at just after 5pm in the afternoon.
