Either way, that'd basically make it a B6 condensed into a single pedal format, assuming they'd update the effects to the current B2/B6 standard. You'd lose the pedalboard mode, but you can spend 6 blocks on the 60B+ sculpting your base sound, throw it into an effects loop on any other multi-effect and use that pedal in stomp mode for any effects you may want. That would give you double the power of the B6 for about 50% of the price of a new B6. You might even be able to do some sort of parallel processing combining these 2 units, which would be a first for Zoom I think.
I might be interested if I ever run out of DPS on my B6. For now I don't and don't expect to, but it's something to consider should I reach that point. There's one thing I don't like though:
The buttons around the stomp box. I've tried a B2 before deciding on the B6 and those buttons were one of the things that turned me far away from it. When playing live, you either hit them when you don't want to, or you can't hit them at the right time. It just didn't feel comfortable and reliable to me, but YMMV. I must admit, I haven't taken a deep dive into the B2, so there might be workarounds for that, like the preset selection on the other MS pedals.
Then again, if you use it the way I outlined above, that wouldn't be much of an issue. You'd just switch between 1,2 or perhaps 3 base sounds with it. The other multi-effect pedal would do the rest.
What would be interesting is if I could export my B6 presets into the 60B+ and back. It'd be a lot less to carry if you're doing small shows or when stage space is limited. But I don't really see that happening.
If there's ever going to be one, I will as well. But a B2/6 in single pedal format kinda sounds too good to be true in my opinion, especially at that price point. Guess we'll find out =]
