| Yo People!! A friend keeps sending links to guitar pedal discussions to me and I thought I chip in to the conversation. While you can emulate any guitar pedal with AI and you don't have to pay 120$ I'd like to introduce you to some understanding. MUSICIANS love to purchase shit they can show off to others. it's in their ego nature. While 120$ for software might compete with quad pro cortex pedal, you can't show off with 120$ but with a pedal you bought fo 2g you can.
That is why BOSS made a big travel box for physical pedals this year, this is what they released at the NAMM2021. How do I know that? I make software for them. GarageBand has 1000s of different pedals already and those are free. most musicians have apple or abelton live or some similar. Also, not to discourage anyone - live music is dying. More and more you see musicians dancing on the stage with their instruments pretending they are playing, while pro-edited backtrack is going through the speakers. If you want to make this world a better place think how to improve housing/farming/healthcare with technology. Things like roof above the head, food on the table will be always in demand. There is no money to be maid with musicians, cause they don't have any. it took me few years to realize, you can learn on my mistakes. If you have some cash and time and thinking if you need to build some software product - kill that, buy some land and build a cabin. In the end you'll have another property. you can sell it or rent it. you can live it to your kids, there is value there. There is no value in your software idea unless people use it like crazy, and they really won't cause they already have 100 pedals and that new pedal bag from boss |
