What Seymour Duncan pedal would you like to see next?

Re: What Seymour Duncan pedal would you like to see next?

I'd like a pedal that generates an exact out-of-phase copy of the lead vocals so it cancels out the singer.

A stomp box that releases a jet stream of ink to escape rabid concert folk, angry venue owners, sound guys and such...

A good parametric EQ that doesn't cost an arm and a leg...

I reckon there's a market for pairing up the drive pedals: 805/Dirty Deed, Pickup Booster/805 Pickup Booster/Dirty Deed, 805/805. Personally I'd love to see a Uni-Vibe type pedal. I wonder too, whether there'd be a market for the preamp modules that SD used to have for their amps to be available in a pedal...?

You know, I was thinking there should be a Seymour Duncan Convertible pedal.

Something like the ISP Theta, just at a lower pricepoint. I've been wanting another Theta pedal, but found a Peavey XXL head for $150 less *delivered.* Not exactly the same, but similar levels of brutality.

I would like to see some american made product as a response of the AMT SS preamp series, those can go into a recording interface or a mixer or into a power amp.

I'm putting together a preamp module from a pcb I have that copies the layout of a Dual Rec red channel but with FET replacing the tubes. I'm also assembling a rack preamp from a kit and my plan is to have it so that I can build a few more modules and have something like a solid state version of the Randall MTS but with a 6550 power section. I've made a start on it and it might take a little while but the end goal is to build my own setup where all my effects and drive sounds are in the analogue domain, quickly interchangeable in the signal flow and all held within the head/rack system so I can just plug straight into the front with a foot controller to change patches and no fuss. I also want to have it in stereo so you can run two different preamp sounds and be able to pan them left and right through 2 cabs or one in stereo.

Unless of course SD beats me to it.

I would like to see the birth of the virtual pickup: A module/pickup thing that you install in your guitar that is linked to a pedal and you can choose between different pickups by switching the pedal. The software inside will emulate the specific characteristics of the selected pickup, a la amplutube. Digital revolution baby! Pretty sure the technology is there already.

Just think about it, never have to swap magnets or pickups again, the one pickup that will do anything!
 
Re: What Seymour Duncan pedal would you like to see next?

oh if we are talking pickups

I would like to re-up the idea from the forum pickup thing

a pickup with a pot on the side
that "bleeds" the pickup from modern to vintage (12-14k to 7-8k for humbuckers
and from 12k to 5k for singles)

I wouldn't be surprised if that Line 6's newest modeling creation with support through POD's and such (being able to switch pickups modeled through the POD, they offer that with Variax tunings).

What classic pedal type has S.D. not approached yet? Wah?

That's a cool idea. There have been a few discussions about this on here. I reckon it could be done with an active pickup that is designed to be dead flat and as clean as possible and then capture the characteristics of the pickups for modelling with convolution.

I'd love to see a direct box for acoustic guitar and vocals that includes the best features of Mama Bear, Solstice and Equinox with an added tuner/mute.

Now that's an interesting idea. And very practical.

What would you consider to be the best features of those 3 products?

I think what you're describing would be very, very similar to the current Variax technology. The only issue with that would be size. I don't think the board for such a thing could fit in a standard humbucker housing at the moment, and if the processing were moved to a pedal, I don't know if the necessary information from the pickup could be transmitted over a standard instrument cable. Not saying it can't be done, only that I imagine a significant amount of R&D would have to go into making it work.

Chorus.

Absolutely not. Impossible. The next pedal will definitely not be a Chorus. Especially not one with an independent mix knob and expression control.
 
Re: What Seymour Duncan pedal would you like to see next?

Yeah i mean that the pickup is just a clean signal reciever/sender (like others already mentioned) and the pedal will have all the modulation done inside so you can select the pickup voicing you want. Lol yeah kinda like the line 6 M-line pedals do.
I would absolutely buy this in a hearthbeat if it sounds half as decent as the M-line pedals modulation.
 
Re: What Seymour Duncan pedal would you like to see next?

I would also like to see SDs take on Chorus.
