How do you feel about new Fender pedals? Where is the grape?

We aren't releasing anything to the public at NAMM, but it doesn't mean we don't have stuff in the pipeline. Our Reps and Dealers will get the lowdown, and we'll make it public when we can.

Ultra-low latency (1ms round-trip)
Linux-based, using single Intel& ARM CPUs
Support for JUCE and VsT 2.x and 3.x plugins
Natively connected (USB, WiFi, BT, 4G)
Full MIDI support

ELK also allows hardware companies to move away from dedicated chips and use standard CPUs with no compromise in terms of low-latency, performance and scalability.

ELK makes it incredibly easy for software developers to port existing software for use in embedded environments, essentially allowing them to run the same code on desktop, mobile and embedded systems.

I'm trying to get my Focusrite Clarett up and running finally now that I've got a computer that will actually support thunderbolt. But the computer port is thunderbolt 3 and Clarett is thunderbolt 2 so I need an adapter cable which is fucking ludicriously expensive for what it is, and might not even work.

Maybe it's not worth the hassle, but I'm wondering if I'm better off selling the Focusrite + cable and getting one of the new UA ones, being that it's thunderbolt 3, and being that the price is so reasonable. However, I'm just wondering: why the massive price drop between the last gen and new gen interfaces? It sets off alarm bells. I just don't want it to be for a bad reason, you know.

Here’s how this will differ from most things you’ll see at NAMM: THIS WON’T BE A PEDAL. Huh? Octave Jawn will ONLY be available as a drop-in mod. You can have it added to effects from our line right on our website in the Mods dropdown windows AND we’ll even mod your existing Fuzzrocious products to add it.

It will be available spring 2018.
As a drop-in mod on a new Fuzzrocious build, it will be $100.
As a drop-in mod on an existing Fuzzrocious product, it will be $125 + return shipping based upon location.
