    Oh, that looks incredibly useful. I don't suppose it has a drum setting?

    I am all over this like a tramp on chips. I'll probably not be creating the same sounds from the demo however. It might even kick the Synth 9 off my board...but then part of me is thinking 'why not both?' 

    EDIT: Having watched the Pedal Zone demo, that's it. I'm convinced, and I think it could even kick the EQD Arpanoid off my board, as well as the Synth 9...this is incredible.

    Wow.

    I’m buying one.

    That’s *finally* the pedal I’ve always wanted, I think...

    Same. Seems to unite everything I liked about other synth pedals I've tried, but without their difficulty/intimidating depth/shite tracking. And a fantastic arpeggiator to boot

    And in the classic, unimprovable Boss compact pedal housing. I was beginning to worry that they were going to drop that, with all these ones with the metal switches coming out...

    Yep. The only thing I'd change is the colour to something a bit more funky but I guess they've used every colour already! 

    I'm absolutely blown away by the demos. The sequencer settings are amazing as well, and could work as an impromtu drum machine if needs be.

    Stefan from Pedal Zone just informed me that the expected RRP is 199 euros, so probably £209 or £219 here, unless they can match it at £199 (which would make me very happy).

    Just missing MIDI, which would obviously be very hard in the size of pedal. Makes using it live hard since changing sounds would be fiddly. Loads of amazing sounds in there.

    If they could make one in between this size and the SY300 with saveable presets, it would be amazing

    Very reasonable price. Boss/Roland are killing it recently.

    Sounds awesome, but maybe best for those running modellers into full range cabs - a lot of that stuff is not going to work into a guitar combo.

    Would've been ace if they decided to release one of these alongside the XX-200 series a few weeks ago with presets and everything.

    I've found most synth pedals are fine with my 100w combo. I think they've tailored it so it would work,.

    I run my Roland GR through my HRD at home, but wouldn't dare at gig volume tbh.
