Thinking about getting into pedals as a business...
Specifically, I want to start small. I'm thinking I'll do tap tempos to start.

What I really want to do is make taps with cool box art - one of a kind, handpainted, unique.

What do you guys think? Sound ineresting?

That's what I'm hoping. I'm going to do a run of five or ten initially... see where it goes.

Haha, I'm actually doing the exact same thing! My switches came in last week and I just got done with a prototype to test for reliability. Competition is good for business right?

Always. There's hardly anyone making just taps, so I don't think the market is very crowded right now.

YES!!! Finally! Build something that automatically figures out bpm by using a tap tempo! I'm tired of having to spend forever finding the right bpm!
