Winter NAMM 2026 predictions

[AlbertA]

All I wanted for this NAMM was a $200 pedal/desktop box/whatever able to handle full NAM models (and an IR in an ideal world?...) with an FX send/return.

Wait for NAM A2

With all the stuff in there it’s gotta be $2k at least. Kinda looks like three splittable paths, so that’s cool.

[polyeffects]

the picture I posted of it shows a lot of clues

eg. Bitwig 'stage daw', 'music stand', 'synths', 'pedals, amps and more' ... etc

I'll be chatting about it today at Perfect Circuit if you're in LA. You can't see the load box input on this picture though. The other 24 inputs are visible though, plus the 10gb ethercon.

Very interesting,

450 GFLOPS of compute, 8 core cpu, and NPU? quick search seems like the RK3588S fits the bill.

Support and continuous development will be a major concern for a new/unknown brand. Great specs for sure but won’t go far on that alone.

that's like the evil version of this

No digital outs that I can see, a no go for me!

I don't know if FAS is necessarily at NAMM. Might have an announcement during the weekend or something

Yes I know they are not at NAMM but cliff mentioned announcement at the NAMM event time frame.

Could it be that the switches are awfully close to each other?

Did Cliff ever actually say he was releasing a new product during NAMM? I thought it was more vague than that, more like ‘we’re working on something’.

Yeah that’s pretty vague, but I hope you’re right.
