I don't want the buttons swappable, because then we cannot name them correctly. Also the four LEDs per effect button will be a problem then.

If that the case, Then i hope the controller will be with rig on the bottum row.
Just my 2 cent.

Rigs on the bottom row, that's what I like too, for sure...... on a 6 button design.
But with a 5 button design it would cause the tap button to be placed in the second row. Maybe not the best place for it.

Both ways have advantages and disadvantages.

It can be difficult to hit the right preset button on stage, when it's a great moment and they turn off the lights and you're blind for a moment (or they ignite the blinders and you're blind too). Rigs in the second row can be a problem then, you need to place your foot in front of the button some seconds before the big moment and then hit it without any additional eye contact.

At the other side tapping something without beeing able to put your heel on the ground is difficult too, so the tap on the second row is not that nice.

Maybe the rigs on the bottom row and an addtional connection for an external tap button if needed (also for the ones that want to tap with the left)?
I then would use the onboard tap for the rehearse and so on, but could make it better accessilbe if needed for gigs.

To be very honest, whatever the layout and the usage I can adjust to any design. Not an issue for me.

Noted... but you'd still prefer the FX on the bottom row, so I'll leave your vote there.

Ok, I can see that. Bummer...

How about this crazy idea:


(please excuse the crappy photoshop)

... Mhhh...
While I consider Steeldom's approach, my preferences would be 5 buttons, with FX on the lower row.

Ask 1000 guitarists to design a pedal board and you'll get 1000 different designs.

Add me to the neutral vote, whatever Mr Kemper designs and produces will be fine for me.

Yeah, I'm sure CK will make a great pedal!
To be honest, I can and will adjust to any design - but I guess there's nothing wrong with showing a little passion for the things you'd want.

Anyway, stats updated.

Chris, I believe I should be on the neutral ones. That's exactly what I meant with my previous post that I can adjust to any solution. That's even more passion shown than sticking to one design I trust that the best solution possible will be delivered to us.
