1) guitar amp modelling in iPod: plug your guitar into your iPod with a guitar chord fitted with a magnetic connector (so you don't damage your iPod as you rock out). I mean, why not?! And while you're at it, why not record cool guitar ideas in your iPod. "The kids would dig it." 2) iPod virtual instrument playback via midi controller - plug your usb keyboard into your iPod and play piano, etc. Do you have other ideas that the Emagic team could bring to the iPod? Post 'em, I say. David

I have absolutely *nothing* to add to this, but I *need* to second it wholeheartedly. - Sascha
