The logical thing to do (I think) is to tell us exactly what they are planning on creating, and keeping us involved during the creation process. The more I know, the more likely I might be to actually set aside (or save up) $ to make sure I can purchase one.

In performance mode maybe you want to label what each macro does. As someone mentioned, its like putting tape on a mixing board to label what instrument is on each channel.

What if its new firmware that turns the A4 into something else, like what OTO did with the Biscuit.

In other words: there is a direct access on the OT-card

Tape, its a performance Mellotron!

Seriously starting to think it is a performance mixer done right, maybe with FX. It is a missing link after all.

Not getting my hopes for a mixer (which is what I really want). Ya gotta consider that the guys have been working overtime on overbridge for the past couple years. Thatā€™s the biggest factor in my prediction that itā€™s a relatively simple bit of kit that focuses on seamless analog integration: a simple overdrive / filter box.

Thatā€™d be the bees knees for you, Golden God.

AJ, thatā€™s pretty damn cruel & clever!

#719

But is it genuinely made in Canada or Sweden?

This makes a lot of sense, as I am (probably more than most on this forum) a ā€œ(non)traditionalistā€ as my main instrument is Turkish bowed tanbur. I JUST repurchased the OT so, this new box (if itā€™s only one) Iā€™m actually interested in! I was strongly contemplating the AR + advanced guitar pedal style looper, but went with the OT again as I knew what I was in store for. I hope it could complement the acoustic instrument + OT combo in the studio or live, something with mic and (switchable impedance) instrument pres would be incredible.

Is it tape ā€¦ or tape simulation?

(I agree with @AdamJay that itā€™s actually probably not connected to the new product.)
