Oh Oh Behringer Sues Boss

[Session 5]

“Instead of creating a polyphonic tuner itself, it simply knocked off Empower's patented device instead”: Behringer sues Boss over “knock off” polyphonic tuner

Behringer’s parent company claims its patented polyphonic tuner, the TC Electronic PolyTune, has been wrongly copied by Boss for four of its flagship amp modeler pedals

I had no idea that B-word, and TC Electronics were related…but after Midas….I suppose…

I have a GT1. I’m in the clear. Was worried for a moment.

Totally hilarious. The company who's sole original business model was making cheap knockoffs of other peoples products/intellectual property now has the gumption to sue companies for merely modeling something they didn't even think of. Just magnificent.
