Pedal trends that need to go begin

[madmax1012]

well the BEX FX Street Sweeper is a Wah enclosed phaser?

[zRobertez]

Trails, soft switches, buffers, exp controls for modulation pedals, top jacks, 9 volt (MXR flanger and chorus!), built in effects loops, clean blends that go 100% wet (reverbs and choruses!), probably a thousand other things already mentioned here.

[Gearmond]

More bass. Also the CV thing, sync-ing up CV pedals is wicked fun.

CV thing + Waveforms
More knobs (control)

Shit yeah waveforms, I missed that. Mod pedals need to get more involved with cool waveforms. Thankfully that actually does seem to be happening.

yes. im actually surprised more people aren't jumping on the subdecay flanger. you guys dont know the glories of random waveforms. put that baby in an effects loop on a delay. damn.

tremolo pedals that do it all. basically the wavform thing, but i'm noticing eve squarewave trems arent nearly choppy enough for my taste most of the time.

MOAR ARPEGGIATORS. im deffo buying a montreal assembly thinger ASAP because thats just such a cool-ass pedal.

expression outs. another thing that probably opens up pedal usage to a ludicrous degree

modulation + distortion pedals. the crystal dagger is fucking awesome, and i'd LOOOOOVE to see a chorus+shitty distortion pedal. it would be doubly excellent if it were possible to determine the order of the signal path, if its mod -> dist or dist -> mod.

cheaper multi-fx units. i'm sure if an axefx and a midi controller didnt cost your firstborn son, we'd all have one and be tinkering away on it.

pickup models: my old multi-fx has this and in theory i think it could be amazing. kinda like the gamechanger, i suppose, but in a more practical way and less nitpicky and uselessly specific. imagine the unique tones you could get blending in an acoustic/peizo mix with like out of phase humbuckers or w/e

pitch shifters with notched intervals. my ideal pitch shifter would have like two modes: harmonic and independent. harmonic is the typical in-the-key mode, and you ratchet the knob to the key, but switch to independant mode, and the key knob becomes the interval knob + or - 12 steps. theres a switch to double that for up to 24 + or - and for funsies a detune knob (or not). also an expression pedal with notched response as well, and an switch to set the natural note in the middle of the sweep, or at the top or bottom of the sweep. this way you can theoretically accurately use it as a slide, more or less. so thats like...two knobs (both hypothetically push pull) one normal detune knob, an expression pedal and one three-way switch. that sounds doable

[Haki]

Dual dirt pedals with an FX loop.

[coldbrightsunlight]

Modulation pedals with an extra LFO to modulate the rate. Everything I've heard this on sounds fucking awesome.

[sonidero]

You mean Modulate the Modulators???

I'd buy this.

Yeah that would be wicked pimp, especially if you could set the size of the steps that the exp pedal sweeps through. Eg semitones, tones etc.

my old 4MS Tremulus Lune had this. It sounded fucking awesome.

Yeah that's the pedal that let me know that was a thing at all. Saw one and was like whaaaaat and now I get excited when I see anything that does it (and might be getting one soon yaaay).

thats more or less what the whammy in my multifx does. except idk about semitones. it might, but it might just sweep through the notes between the sweep.

but yeah, hypothetically you'd just need one more knob for sweep range. 4 or 3 knobs, a switch, and an expression pedal could all probably fit in the footprint of a whammy, too.

Soooo... who's going to build this?

Isn't this what the Mooer pitch shifter does? Sorry if I'm wrong, I don't look into pitch shifters much.

[Gearmond]

most pitch shifters do it, but only a few iterations of the whammy set the range for the expression pedal.


i'm kinda obsessed with pitch shifters, so i've always been trying to think of the most comprehensive pitch shift pedal that isn't made by Eventide and doesn't involve presets and stuff

I love pitch shifters!!!
I would love to see more pedals with octave up and down options

Good example
Digitech Time Bender-pitch up delay!!
