Griffin Stompbox allows iPad foot control
—Your iPad is obviously for more than just surfing the web and watching videos. Music enthusiasts like the iPad because there are a lot of musician-geared apps and accessories pouring into the market. The Stompbox from Griffin works in tandem with Frontier Design’s iShred LIVE guitar app, which let’s you jam out on your iPad to a variety of settings and controls.
The Stompbox facilitates real time switching of guitar effects directly within the iShred LIVE app without the need to remove your hands from your instrument and place them on to the tablet. The controls actually reside on the Griffin pedalboard. Each switch is assignable and effectively recreates the experience of an actual pedalboard with an almost endless array of options.
Griffin has not released a launch date, but the price will be $99.99 and includes a heavy-duty dock connector cable.
