Emerging gear trends of the 2018 gear season?

Post by Chankgeez »

I'd like to see some more pedals/gear in larger enclosures. :eek: :wha?:

Because I like the knobs and switches spaced farther apart and shit. :grumpy: :lol:

Yes, larger enclosures and small PCBs. For goodness sake...the electronics need room to breathe. Everybody knows this.

Oh and less knobs on the larger enclosures...but the effect still has to be transparent.

But the knobs, can they be huge? I need everyone to see my settings easily.
I could have done a lot worse. Just google it, but before you do grab a bottle of jack and a revolver and prepare yourself for the event horizon.

How about huge pcbs mounted right to the board with no enclosure? Pocket operator style

Pedals are no longer going on the floor. They're getting mounted to the ceiling and you have to reach up to engage the effect.

More rechargeable PSU that aren't junk.
More pedals trying to copycat CBA [aesthetically and functionally]

Effects that are so large they transcend enclosures. The new Metal Zone is literally going to be A ZONE.

I want more big pedals as well! But for me the perfect option is having a small version and the full or deluxe being bigger with a second or third stomp and more fun.

That's a good point, PeteeBee, that'd be ideal. Not sure most small builders have the resources to do both. Would satisfy everyone that way though.
