Tone Report Weekly Issue 160 | Page 17

This oddball stompbox is a truly innovative one-off concept pedal that is a real riff generator . By simply reading the face of the pedal , the Trio might put players off by suggesting that everyone wants to play in a specified genre . Some might be offended by a robot suggesting what style they should play within , but that is all rubbish . This pedal is all about providing us with a platform from which our imagination can jump off with minimal planning . When inspiration hits , I can plug in , hammer out a couple of riffs and the Trio listens , learns and returns with some quality backing of both bass and drums .
Admittedly , this isn ’ t a device I would rely on for gigging or tracking alone , but more like a sketch pad for song outlining on the fly . Like the BeatBuddy , the Trio has the all-important headphone output , but also includes speaker cab sims and effects built right into the pedal itself , making it a fantastic option for a parent struggling to slot in a creative riffing session .
