We have that now, except for the lower-power part. Reducing the power consumption would require removal of circuitry, at which point you have... a sound interface. Which can be had for a whole lot less money.Something like “limited mode”, which does not process any input signals, except say, from USB input, just to be used as a fancy sound card. Ideally with much lower power consumption so that you don’t feel bad about having it on for a long time.
Not sure I understand. CPU load and other type of internal processing determines power consumption. If you ask the CPU not to process incoming guitar signal, you’ll save a ton of power. You don’t have to remove any circuitry for that.We have that now, except for the lower-power part.

To reduce CPU load can't you just create a preset with only the blocks you require (eg input from USB and output to monitors)?Not sure I understand.

I think it would still operate analog to digital converters that process the guitar input, which is additional power. Basically, all redundant tasks can be shut down by underlying software.To reduce CPU load can't you just create a preset with only the blocks you require (eg input from USB and output to monitors)?
Edit: Would this only require an OUT1 block?
