I probably saw more pedals there this year than over the last several, tbqh. Lots of small guys around the edges, and the two pedal "showcase" booths were, as always, incredibly popular, to the point of having to wait in line most of the time for a chance to check out the boards. Met Scoot and Tom Cram in person, listened to Marshmallow go bleep, pestered Red Panda about WHERE IS THE CONTEXT V2?! and jammed the new Yellowcake S&H pedal, in particular. Also saw a distinctively purple thing that may exist soon™.

Regarding purple thing:

I'm very excited for Purpll. That and the new Gamechanger thing are gonna kill my bank account, but I love them. I also fell in love with the Harmony offset, but those aren't new.
Cool pedals I saw were the new Big Ear modulation (FV-1 but a neat implementation), Demedash T-120, OBNE MAW, and weirdly a lot of great boosts (White Spiral is easily my favorite of the boosts though). Also Dusky Amps had an Aluminati guitar with an active preamp and two fuzzes built in, that was pretty neat

price confirmed on the Plasma Coil...$300 for standard & $350 for yellow
According to a BOSS rep, don't expect the DD-200 to have the flexibility of something like the Nemesis----there are no plans to implement algorithm swaps or to be able to use external editing. The USB port is for updating the firmware, not for deeper features. If you have enough real estate on your board, you may not want to swap the 500 for the 200. That being said, it does sound like a nice delay for the money.
