Something like an ABY or Tripler Pedal to run anywhere from two to three (or even four...lol) amps at the same time or in "any combination" with each other. Maybe even having some type of volume/boost/cut on each channel. That is, if that could be done. I'm no electronics guy. So I don't know.

4 amps, with volume knobs for each channel:

Honestly, I'd like to see Seymour sit down with Kevin Beller, the engineer, and pull an original design out of their own minds, rather than try and make another version of something already done a zillion times.

Yes!

Admin, how about my idea (refer to my earlier post here), (which I will quote if you can't find).

I'm not an administrator, and I did see your idea. I think like others have said, what you're describing is something like an EQ pedal, or the HBE Detox. But it is an interesting direction to think in.

Seymour Duncan Flanger?
Click to expand...

I've heard that some pedal manufacturers consider flangers to be a dated, played-out pedal due to overuse in 80's recordings.

Well, **** 'em; Seymour, give us an Analog Bucket Brigade Flange with True Bypass and a Mix control. A Flanger that can be transparent or totally obnoxious.

I'd really like to see SD make a tube driven, analogue guitar synthesizer. It would work like a subtractive synthesizer (something to change the incoming waveform of the guitar, filter, ADSR envelope and amplifier) with the tube running at full plate voltage like something Metasonix would make but for guitar. It would be even cooler if it was made to be modular like the Zvex boxes you can assemble out of modules so you can change the order and they could make additional modules to play with.

An effect switcher that can handle 10 pedals serial and parallel switching and trails with a built-in power supply, wah-wah, and volume pedals.

All enclosed into a portable pedal board that uses Seymour Duncan and other standard sized and double-sized (e.g., larger) pedals...

Cost @249.00 retail in SD forum Red & White colors to show 81 support

I want a multi effects pedal that changes parameters based on my heart rate, perspiration levels, and brainwave activity, configurable with an emotional index, like "sad mode" which adds cave reverb the lower my heart rate is, or "anger more" that dials up a dual gain if my heart rate increases, or "math rock" mode that increases compression proportionate to brain activity... something like that, with a paint job consisting of no less than three primary colors.

I need a pedal that produces the correct amount of feedback according to how far forward I rock the pedal.

a treadle shaped pedal
that with the heel down produces a clean signal
with the toe down produces an amount of tube distortion
and sweeps between

oh wait
thats a volume pedal

yea that

The guys in R&D are asking me if you have any specifications with regard to secondary colors.

Or it could be used with a clean amp and generate the distortion, but the foot would control the amount of gain (with adjustable bottom and top limits).

I thought this was how all distortion pedals worked when I was first dabbling with a guitar. Albums like Nevermind and Siamese Dream were top of the charts, and it was trendy at the time to switch from clean to distorted abruptly throughout the song. So I went looking to buy a distortion pedal, and the music store salesman had to explain to me that is was actually an toggle switch in the middle of the pedal, and not a variable type of control.

New idea: a trainer metronome pedal.

It works like this: when you play in time, you're rewarded with chrunchy VOX distortion and stadium reverb, and the sound of a crowd cheering is heard. When you nail 8ths and the 16ths, the crowd goes wild, women scream your name. Your guitar sounds MIA. But play out of time, the effects go away, completely dry signal, you faintly hear a couple of guys whispering to each other about your amateurish technique, like in a guitar store setting. If you're playing is especially out of time, your signal will randomly cut out, like a bad guitar cable. And you guitar will sound all MIM. Proper motivation built in.

LMAO! I'd like to see their version of a simple adjustable wahhhh! or maybe some new type of sustain pedal..?

How about a metronome that, upon being thrown against the wall as hard as one can or stomped on repeatedly, makes this noise:
