Nice!

Sitting here thinking of all the cool uses this could be put to. I think I am very keen.

Oh wow.. I can think of half a dozen ways I could use this as I type this! Pi + FX1 (+S2/X2) sounds like an amazingly versatile combination now, even moreso than Pi+X3.

Also thinking:

- MIDI module for modern laptop / PC
- Guitar FX for practice/jamming
- Enhancement for older MIDI modules like the FB-01 that don't have their own FX

Little Swiss army knife by the looks.

Question @dreamblaster. Could you plug an S2/X2 into this, connect a guitar to the audio in, and have the guitar control MIDI instruments?
