Digitech Trio... Pretty cool! (EDIT: Electroharmonix B9 vs. C9 pedal)

+1. It's a creative tool not a performance tool.

Agreed!! I was simply hoping it would be a fun practice tool. Never thought in terms of recording--for recording I always utilize HUMAN TOOLS :icon_jokercolor:! But, it's rather difficult to be creative when the bass is 'playing' at a different tempo than the drums. In fact, it's a bit difficult to be tolerant, too.
I would readily admit that I am in fact the tool at fault, being digitally brain dead, except every employee of the shop had the same problem. Maybe it was one faulty unit , who knows? I really was rooting for it, though--I love the idea!

I was afraid the Trio might be too good to be true.  The way the demo goes, it looks like the device latches on and generates something fairly quickly and fairly complete.  And I know what you mean about "human tools," hahaha!

There's some really cool demo videos out there and they seem to work pretty well. https://youtu.be/ZTpddpdF_PA

I think the key is to feed it a simplified strumming pattern. It seems like a lot of fun with a looper.
