We Have Been Waiting For You,
The can is a great idea, such foresight and class.
Is there a DSP chip inside there somewhere as well ?

Keep 'em comin', I must see more.

looks tasty, even for a vegetarian like me.

Obviously this is a rendered mockup, so it doesn't matter that the jack sockets are a bit inaccessible. Would be good to fix that on the production model though (maybe put them on the back, it's neater that way ;)

That looks like it could be very popular if marketed correctly. I don't think Celmo will make any more Scope devices once he sees how popular guitar pedals are these days. ;)

yeh, looks like knobs would indicate the singal flow from left to right and connector placement would indicate the opposite way.
not to mention the picture leaves an impression that a bigger jack would not fit...
just because you cannot imagine something that doesn't exclude it from reality.

Oh, I didn't see before that the jacks are on top. This seems like it could only hurt sales, not help.

I agree with Eric, the jacks on guitar pedals always go in the sides of the box, sometimes the upper side, but not on the top.
I'd also suggest to set the switches not too close to the rim, so the box will stand more stable when you stomp on it and not flip over.

Other than that, I think it's a cool thing and I hope you get it together as planned. Awesome design, gotta love it :)

For me Celmo is the best developer in the scene, not because of marketing, or because of what people say… but because of the instruments he has created and the amazing quality of the sounds you can pull out of them.

The Celmo BAM and GAM, continue to be my best friends in the studio achieving the exact sound I want to have in a particular production for bass and guitars. I have tried many little hardware solutions and quite a few software too, but no way… the sound is never quite the one I want, they may sound interesting, but do not induce me “to play”. In the other hand, the smoothness that comes from the processing of the Celmo BAM and GAM do push me to play and play and play without stopping…

I have seen that most people when they get a new instrument software, tend to use it as it comes. For instance, new synths tent to be used as if they were samples without the “power” to be changed. Most people at least, get a new synth and use it for years to come, with the presents included, without ever creating a new sound… How would you know how powerful and capable an instrument is, or a pluing, if you do not investigate and use it extensively, modifying its parameters, mixing things in different ways, experimenting new unusual ways? Well… it is simply not possible!

I have done the opposite with the Celmo BAM and GAM, achieving amazing sounds you would not believe they could come from software… you would swear they are 100% pure amp generated, with loud outputs to attain such a warm and cohesive smoothness… Well, they come from those two plugins. I am pretty sure I am the one that has most used these two plugins because I’m a real fan of guitar and bass playing, and it has been like this for all my life.

I remember myself visiting shops once and over and over again, for ages… the shop-assistant would say: “but, didn’t you like this new model of Boss?” – “No, no man, I didn’t like it really, it sounds so plastic”. They would get away from me, quite angry, believing I was one of those guys that come one million times just to pretend buying something, but never buying anything… Well, I am not particularly fond of shops, so no; I am not one of them. I was looking for a sound-invitation to play. But all those little boxes were quite uninspiring to me… until BAM and GAM came to be! Since then, I have not visited any shop at all looking for effects for my guitar and bass, the search is over…

If the hardware coming from Celmo is as good as it is its software, he is going to become one of the mayor trademarks worldwide, period!

My very best wishes for you Celmo!

Celmo Is Top Shelf,
I have many of his gadgets. Recently his Talk Box shocked the guitarist I'm working with.

But BlueWave, Pro Vintage Delay, Tape Sim, Pultec, and the totally unique and free now, Celmo Phaza, are always somewhere in my projects. Though his delays are not as advanced and customizable as SpaceF's, they can give you immediate, and accurate emulations of vintage tape, disc, and analog delays. The best sounding digital electric piano I ever heard came with his 5 voice BlueWave synth. I emailed him and asked if there was a way to get a little more polyphony out of it, and immediately I recieved a 16 voice version of it. That's one of the reasons I love the 3rd party guys. We all love Scope, and use it somewhere, and customer support from small developers is what makes me smile. Try emailing some of the big companies for help after you spent your hard earned money, and they jack you off by telling you your computer is the blame, or some lame ass excuse.

I shall brag about my favorite platform, and developers here until they pull the plug on my life support when I'm 90 !!
