I've said it before and I'll say it again; the floor is the wrong place for hand-operated controls, including touch screens. In my opinion, all multi-effect units should be made in two pieces - a floor piece and a tabletop or rackmount piece - with a cable connecting them. The tabletop or rackmount piece contains all the electronics, displays, and hand-operated controls. The floor piece contains only foot-operated controls such as switches and expression pedals.

Roland got it right with their VG-99. Unfortunately, it's very expensive. I wish they'd make some more-affordable multi-effects units in the same two-piece design. And I wish DigiTech and other effects makers would do the same. DigiTech should have designed this as a tabletop unit that the iPad slides into with a midi cable going to the floor-based controller.

Quite agree. I kept all my pedals on a table so I could adjust and play about with the controls, putting them on the floor is flawed. Mind you it didn't look as cool as the roland set up.
