Winter NAMM 2015 Updates - Amps

FYI - anyone coming down from LA (or beyond), AMTRAK and Metrolink both offer service to the new Anaheim train station, just a quick shuttle hop from the convention ctr. And Amtrak sells beer (good beer!) for the post show ride home!
The best part is sipping your beer at 75mph while watching the dweebs sit in traffic on the 5 freeway. I had to make that commute daily for two years, and the train is the way to go!
 
Now, there was an image toward the end of the video that showed a case opening and what appeared to be some individual stomp boxes along with the unit inside. So, I assume that it's not an effects unit but something that allows you to control the individual effects?
 
The BOSS ES-8 is a nice switching system.

I haven't seen a street price listed other than one in the UK which was 499 pounds or about $750 US. I would expect it to sell for less in North America, but even if it were $500, it's expensive.

No, it's not cheap. I'll wait till we see the MIDI spec before making judgment if it's worth it. It looks like it has a midi clock sync generator judging by BPM indicator. That and the pedal order switching would get me excited.
