Pedals are definitely obsolete technology as are guitars

I would argue that if you are a really great musician, pedals don't really matter...and if you aren't a really great musician, pedals don't really matter also.Teej212 wrote:i would argue almost every pedal uses obsolete technology.
FWIW, I bought one of the Arcades today. I'm pretty excited to check it out, but also pretty bummed that I had to decide on which flavor of cartridges it would come with...and knowing that I'll be looking at spending another $100 or so to take advantage of everything that the pedal offered at release...but similarly excited about the idea that more effects can be developed for the pedal over time.

Not for me, probably for some other people.
It looks closer to the Elta than the devi, though:Teej212 wrote:to DOS - yes this is a super gimmick, rip off of devi ever, I'm the worst and I suck.

First thought was the Elta one too, which I'm assuming came about after getting the the idea from Devi Ever.
Console... Arcade... Anyway, it sounds great and I'm sure people will have a ton of fun with it. That's the point.

Can confirm that CooperFX Arcades is pretty phenomenal...at least the Lofi and Pitch cards have some awesome effects on them.

Anyone check out the verb and delay cards yet? Do tell?
I've been mostly all about the LoFi card. All of the effects on it are pretty awesome.

I'm so impressed with it I've actually considered grabbing a delay/reverb version. It would make for a powerful team and do a lot on a board.cosmicevan wrote:Wish it came w all of them.shikawkee wrote:Yeah, those are the cards I got as well.

I need to quit this place if I don’t want to live in a van down by the river. I was already wanting a second CT5 for the Nightly firmware.shikawkee wrote: I'm so impressed with it I've actually considered grabbing a delay/reverb version. It would make for a powerful team and do a lot on a board.

Interesting... Funny how they've gone for a very different sequencer setup on this one. But I'll keep my eye out for demos.
