I never thought I would thank Frito for anything.

But that is kinda cool, as I play guitar and love vsts as well!

But I have iphone with Amplitube and a midi footswitch. Still not quite as cool as a pc vst host pedalboard.

I wonder if you load Amplitube in this pedal if you can take advantage of the cabinet emulation? Mmm...

 

i lol'd!


I was going to say something snarky like "Yeah, it's usually your mom who thanks me", but i felt like being classy today.

:P

 

Don't do it Frito

Trust me, I have way mo better snarky comments!

So listen to Sausage!

 

Why would you think that you'd never thank frito for anything? He's a great guy with a wicked sense of humor plus he's really intelligent and helpful. I'm not even going to get into how much he does for the forums.

 

If that is an honest question and you really want to know Catalyst, I will let you know.

Has nothing to do with personality.

It's because we are on different sides of the planet musically and I didn't think he would ever post anything relevant to metal or guitar.

That's why I didn't think I would ever thank Frito, cause I didn't think there would ever be anything relevant for my usage.

But like I said, he actually did post something cool I might check out, if that fucker isn't too expensive (the pedal). Cause the Peavey Muse thing is a $1000, but its not a stompbox like this one.

So, I thanked him.

 

I would buy this thing for sure if its cheaper than a crummy laptop. Cause a laptop and a little audio device and a little midi footswitch, and you would be able to do the same thing as this pedal.

So if this thing is around $300 to $600 dollars, then it is definitely worth getting when it comes out. Otherwise I would just go the latter route with cheap laptop setup.

 

Yeah it was an honest question, I thought that you had something against the guy. And you'd be surprised frito is actually very diverse in his listening interests.
