Hmm...maybe that 3rd letter isn't even a C, maybe it is the left side of a capital stretched I

If I would have been less tired I would have searched for the font they use

Hey hibidy, how is that ambien working for you? I see that it is not much effective if you're still awake.

Ok, scratch that...Out of tiredness I just titled my head to the left and it came to me...

that 3rd or 4th letter is definitely a lower case "a".

Stealth Board is the most probable guess so far...

Aha!! Figured it out!

Wonder what it does. I imagine a board as in a pedal board, a case or board you have all your stomps or pedals on. But we got the stomp IO. Maybe a big upgrade for the stomp IO or even an add on of sorts? They were doing big sales on stomp IO accessories.

Aha!

So it is kind of like the StompIO but as a MIDI controller...so less the audio interface, and more generic usage.

I like...

It is a shame they don't show a picture on that website so we can figure out the number of knobs/switches...

And here is a picture:

PRESS RELEASE: IK Multimedia is proud to introduce StealthBoard, the first USB-MIDI floor controller for guitar and bass players that gives you full control over your entire rig. You may now control your software and/or hardware-based tone and effects units, plus channel switching, all from just one unit on the floor.

If you use amp modeling and effects software or hardware live, this is the controller for you. StealthBoard features a USB MIDI port for direct connection to your computer, as well as MIDI in/out connections for any other MIDI controllable gear, including amplifiers. It is the perfect control partner for your rack or floor audio interface, giving you more control over more parameters than any other controller on the market in an intuitive, natural way.

• Control AmpliTube or any "Powered by AmpliTube" software with no additional setup - simply plug your computer into the USB port of the StealthBoard and immediately access thousands of "Powered by AmpliTube" presets and parameters.

• Fully control any MIDI-based hardware or software Amp Modeler - you will be able to fully control anything that responds to MIDI messages via USB and finally unleash their software or hardware rig power.

• Full control of your MIDI-enabled amps and effects processors - with just one unit. The StealthBoard operates also as a standalone MIDI controller for all your existing MIDI gear.

• Amp Channel Switching gives you control of your existing amp and effects with just one unit and expands your live sonic palette.

StealthBoard also works with any audio interface and is the perfect companion to IK's StealthPedal™ wah-style audio interface.

Nice! Still an amp head would be good too, theres is something about just turning up the volume on an amp!! and all these things can be connected!

looks good! I want one!

i brought a stealthpedal about a month ago, probably would have had more use for this.

Well that really doesn't look all that useful.
My AmpIO idea was a lot better.
So I'm making that my official guess on their next hardware controller.
Yep, when they finally release it, I'm claiming my free unit!

At least the StealthBoard is significantly cheaper than StompIO.
But still not as cheap or as useful as the Behringer FCB1010.

Seeing this doesn't make me regret getting the StealthPedal at all.
But the Behringer FCB1010 does a little.
