Electric Guitar Multi-FX Device

Most guitarists use a series of footswitch-activated effect pedals daisy chained together. The order of this chain affects the resultant sound and tone. For example, placing a distortion effect in the daisy chain before an echo creates a more smooth distortion/echoing effect, whereas in the opposite sequence a more succinct and rigid echo results. Neither sequence is better than the other – it depends on what the musician is trying to achieve. Even with a set of daisy chained pedals, it is time consuming for a musician to test all permutations of the patch cable sequence to figure out what sounds best. In Tune Innovation's plans to implement electronic control over the internal daisy chain in its multi-effect device, allowing the user simple control over the sequence. The result is that musicians will now be able to creatively experiment with the sequence in real time. Additionally, In Tune's new effects unit will be easily programmable, so that the user can cycle through a combination of effects, without having to change a single cable, or turn a single knob!
