    Goose: The Band

    Goose is amazing, really growing and pushing boundaries. Love their new drummer too, seems to bring a bit more of the Fishman influence. I played that Hungersite>Arcadia for some friends a few days ago who are into Phish but hadn't heard of Goose and they totally dug it.

    This could be really useful as part of the Home page... there's a lot of space to the right of the Scene names where you could have room for up to 16 block names that could be bright when on, and dim when off. Not sure how to also show channels and controllers, but it would still help to see...

    What does PRS’s $499 guitar mean?

    I don't really like 24 frets so what it means to me is I don't get to buy a PRS for under 500 ;-) Too bad, because they look really nice. Hope they make a 22 fret model. I'd trade my 25th anniversary SE24 for one of those in a heartbeat.

    Control Switches Stay On Between Presets?

    Yep. I thought we could already do this, but now I'm wondering... I almost always just want it to default to Scene 1, but definitely not whatever scene you happened to modify.
  12. jefferski

    Control Switches Stay On Between Presets?

    Agreed. You might just tweak something in a random scene but not want it to be the default - we should just be able to say "on this preset S2 is the default" and have it stick.

    Dune: Part Two

    I agree with both of these, it has to be a huge challenge to adapt stories with so many layers.

But not something in the 5000 range. If you can spend that, and there are no dealers near you, you can...

    How many of you prefer to talk at your gigs (eg In between songs)? How many of you play straight through?

    I'd love to see this too, but as said implementing it might be a whole lot of work and I can see it being a non-starter. I guess it'd be something that happens after the MV circuit so it can do its magic first. It would have to listen to levels (RMS? LUFS?) coming out of the amp block or...

    Can you enable a drive and keep it ON with an expression pedal?

    I'd recommend you combine these two ideas. That way, they both engage at the same time, but let's say you want to go heel down on the Wah for a few notes (or toe down, however you have it set). Turning up the Damping Release Adjusting the Auto-Engage setting (slow/medium/fast) will keep the...

    How do you maintain the amp settings to easily/quickly audition different variations of a particular amp model.

    This could also be useful when changing different amp types as well - say you want to compare how a Twin sounds at given settings with a Deluxe or a Princeton. Or a Freidman vs a Marshall, Vox/Morgan, etc. Maybe if there was a toggle to "not update settings when changing amp types"? (of...
