    A cable which doesn't have an innate ability to tie a range of knots in itself whilst hiding in a gigbag.

    Mine would be a hardware multi-FX unit which doesn't come with any actual effects, but instead allows you to buy them online and download into the unit via wi-fi or Bluetooth, like a universal version of TC Toneprint crossed with the App Store, accessed from a phone or tablet. Each module should have a number of physical knobs to control the main parameters in use, and further tweakability from the remote device. Independent developers would have access to the store to sell their own creations.

    I may be overlooking something like this that already exists, but if it does I haven't come across it.
    There are things a bit like that but no one has ever really run with the concept. The idea of a Tabla Rasa multi FX has long seemed good to me.

    Anyway back to the inventions,  I was reminiscing earlier about some gigs I played in buildings with high ceilings, hard surfaces,etc, and thought that someone should invent an anti reverb pedal. 

    I'd also like an expandable car. Small car but you can enlarge sections to carry more luggage turning it into a big car if need be. One vehicle that does tiny city car stuff and can accommodate a family and luggage on holiday. But not a roof rack or a trailer.

    Yeh, pretty much.

    You can buy a motorhome with hydraulic sides, so they expand out and the vehicle is wider when you are parked up so that kind of idea but lengthwise. And in a car.

  • Whatever chemicals they put in cat food to make it smell nice to a cat, I'd like a tin of double-strength dose of it for when Roobi decides not to eat something that she's hitherto been eating without complaint.

    Self-polishing shoes.

    Washing machines with noise generators that cancel the noise of a fast spin.

    This exists already - it’s called winding them up properly.

    She makes it look easy because she’s only doing it with a single.  Try it with a King on your own!
    Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine.

    A machine which would change the duvet sheet and get all the corners snug and filled so you don't pull up a flappy bit of duvet cover to your face when getting comfy.
    You don't need one, just do this @gringopig ;

    Watch from 1:12



    I bet you watch it more than once as well ;)
    Well. There you go lol. I spent hours of my life stuffing the duvet into the cover. I did watch it more than once haha
    I do the covers that way ever since I remember. Tbh I didn't know other people don't do it.
