Fractal VP4!

[Orvillain]

He was kidding... It's real.

Wait... it is?!

 

[REDD]

Spoiler alert!!!

The price ....












... ends in 99.00

And if you act now, you get this awesome set of knives!

The chocolates used to be a nice touch

Well, that's G66 and not Fractal... Us fat bastards in the US who actually "need" the chocolate never got any!

Well, I may be a bastard, but I object to use of the term "fat." I prefer "plump," "rotund," or "corpulent." But fat? Heavens no!

These images look real to me, or maybe I'm just hopeful that the VP4 is real. You never know these days what is an what isn't.

The enclosure reminds me of the original red Atomic Amplifire pedal enclosure, which I think may have inspired the VP4 enclosure in part, as well
as the BOSS 500 series pedals, which also have a similar geometry.

The Fractal enclosure is stealthy and practical, as Fractal usually is.

Neural DSP enclosures are inspired by Apple computer hardware and are pretty sexy looking. I think the modulation, delay and reverb effects sounds in this VP4 box will be superior to Neural DSP's modulations, delays and reverbs. Where Neural DSP has the edge is with their "fun" user interfaces and with some of their more adventurous effects, like the guitar synth algorithms they built for Rabea Massaad. Those are very unique and fun sounds to play and use. The ultimate setup might be a Quad Cortex + VP4 + Poly Ample, but that's a lot of quid.

I believe we've met.



For anyone wondering ... yes, that's real (not AI).

Smeg! Those Bake-Off corrupting, product-placing, overpriced weak-ass fridges building bastards!!!

First I thought: "Why would I wanna lock my waffle iron?", but then I realized it's the power button.

I'm pretty sure at this point that I'll be putting the FM9 up for sale. Loads of pedals, too. I need to pair it down and simplify.

It's got to be genuine, it still has the screen protector in place.

I'm keeping the 9. My redneck behind will probably run the 4 and 9 together at some point.

Thank jebus tmw is the official release so we can stop wasting time speculating on what will be and move on to speculating how it sounds for another 150 pages before anyone has it in hands...

 

[WKSmith]

Maybe Leon and Andy and friends will drop videos at midnight. I would stay up for that.

Wild speculation is basically all I have in my boring life right now…

Something I've not seen anyone saying anything about, I have never seen a fractal release like this and have been around since the Ultra days (which I still have). A few leaks and I wonder how many NDA's have been broken.

I wonder how many NDA's have been broken.

dunno - doesn't seem like the early released info was due to broken NDAs
