As to when it'll be for sale, and how much - we're not sure. Just like the last model (Trio), we won't be selling it directly. Check http://digitech.com/en-US/products/trio-plus and I'm sure the "Coming Soon" will turn into a dollar value any day now...

Although one of the downsides (imo) is you have to play the chord progression for EACH new song you play. You cannot save or store them (on the old version - new one allows 12). So for just drums it might be okay, but if you want to add bass this is a restriction that could be important.

Also (again just imo) the drum sounds are a bit machine like in sound and oepration.

One of the video descriptions available on YouTube indicate the looper function can be used to store up to five instrument groups. Each instrument group can be broken into discrete parts such as intro, outro, chorus, etc. It seems that you can use the pedal as inspiration to build a complete song.

Yes it looks like they fixed most of my complaints about the first version. pax-eterna have a look at this video review ... Andertons Trio+ Preview

Looks like a UK street price of 219 gbp.

afaics you still have to load each of them in when you want a song, and 12 song storage is ridiculous. You also still need to play in the chords etc. It is a glorified looper, which for those who have a use for loopers, great smile It is really ONLY for guitarists as it only has one mono input jack and output is also mono unless you want to use the stereo headphones out.

For me 12 songs would be ok for a set and then swap SD cards for the next set etc. Also, the video said that the included card would hold 12 songs which might mean that a larger card would hold more. On the other hand it may be a UI restriction i.e. you can only select 1 of 12 songs from the selector knob. The mono output is a shame but the headphone output might be usable.

From what I have seen you do need to play in the chords to make it generate a drum/bass backing track but the difference is that you can then store the results on the pedal once you have recorded all the loops and worked out a sequence for all the various song parts. So, unlike the old pedal, you wouldn't have to "teach" it the song at a gig you would just playback one that you have already stored.

At least that appears to be how it works looking at the 35 minute Andertons video. I will certainly have to check it out at my local music store when they become available.

Fair enough smile it still is really for guitarists though - the lack of l/r inputs and mono output (apart from headphone jack) proves that.

But I guess you still can use the stereo headphones output going to 2 inputs on your mixer, and record in stereo on your daw on you computer.....right??

Another question:
I have an old Roland XP50 synthesizer/keyboard. Can I use this on the TRIO+, together with guitar parts from my guitars and amp in order to compose a complete song/backing track and finally record everything through DAW (Adobe Audition) in stereo (through headphones output) on my computer and save it there as a wave or mp3-song??
Is such a use and routing possible?

Haven't you noticed over the last 5 years or so this forum has morphed into 80-90% guitarists? Keys guys like myself are definitely a dying breed around here. Not complaining though, this is just an observation. Guitarists are cool as long as they keep it down...JUST KIDDING

Also, looping performers are pretty big and getting bigger I think. They don't simply start a song playing like we're used to. Their thing is having the audience see and hear them create the parts one by one and then see them putting the whole thing together. I don't think a lot of loopers even want prerecorded tracks, the whole point is doing them from scratch live on stage and audiences love that.

To quote Monty Python And The Holy Grail, as well as Spamalot...

Nothing wrong with being in the top 10 per-centers.

I also left a comment providing you with a link for +++ Digitech's forum +++ and +++ Zoom products forum +++

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
