I would like to see just a standard MP Overdrive pedal -- different from the LGW. Something that would be along the lines of the Baby Blue OD, since that pedal is no more. It seems the current crop of overdrives emulate a certain amp sound - vox, marshall, supro, etc. I would like to see an overdrive with great amp and pickups blending ability.

IMHO, the A/DA Flanger has the best chorus sounds I've ever heard, not to mention it's a kick butt flanger to boot, so my vote for a new BJF pedal would be a a stereo chorus or flanger, with my second choice being a BJF wah...



Hmm I had an original ADA and I never cared for the chorus sounds......
I really like the Arion Fat chorus tho its pretty Leslie-ish :wink:

besides the analog delay
i'd really like to see Bjorn's take on a parametric EQ
to one who doesn't hear the music, the dancers look crazy

I'd like to see a chorus. I've always liked that effect, but could never get into the "tin can" thing that would happen to the sound. I guess a good BJF take a on a chorus would address that problem. Have the lush effect of the chorus without the side effect of that metallic sound.

He did it quite successfully with the Folk Phaser, in terms of tuning it to guitar as opposed to organ or piano (like most phasers). How many times have you used a phaser at home, thought it sounded great, then took it to a gig and couldn't hear it??? The Folk Phaser addressed this quite successfully, as will the MP version that is to come.

If something similar could be done to improve how a chorus would work with an electric guitar, I'm sure BJ is just the guy to figure out what that would be.

And if or when he does, I want to be the first in line!!! :twisted:

that is a GREAT idea :D
the flanger is also excellent...there really is not a fantastic flanger in a small footprint :?
also if there was any way to make the "honey bee" of fuzzes....a low gain fuzz with a nature control and maybe a bass controll so you can stack the PPF or CAF with it and get outlandish synth fuzz sounds...every time i use the CAF i see the extreme potential for a amazing conventional noise device....especially when paired with the octron....mmmm

I'd like to see a nice Chorus/Flanger as well; something suited primarily for the guitar without the "thin tin sound". After you make DocRock one, I'd like dibbs on the second.

A good reverb in a small box would also be quite useful. I've never used reverb before but many of the current models appear quite complex. I like things simple when it comes to stompboxes and I'm certain Bjorn could build one with 3 knobs that is as eloquent and versatile as anything else out there.

Really looking forward to hearing the new MP Phaser.

All excellent suggestions.....

HB Fuzz ~~ kind of Folk Fuzz into SBEQ ??

I believe there is an MP chorus in the future, with an interesting twist or two :wink: ..... in fact apparantly a few interesting hurdles have been leaped at the MP factory- this should be an interesting year for us all 8)

Customshop whackjob Fuzz mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm (Homer thinking of beer flavored donuts and donut flavored beer)
