FLAMMA FS03 Electric Guitar Delay Effects Pedal with Looper Stereo Digital Sound 6 Delay Effects Storable Preset Tap Tempo Trail On True Bypass for Pedal Boards

Can we all just take a minute to appreciate our friend, the over-worked and sometimes underappreciated reverb effect? Heck, at this very moment, there are thousands of guitarists feverously debating which little green box will make us sound like Stevie Ray Vaughn. All the while, the lowly reverb effect is dutifully working away without so much as a pat on the back! So, I put it to you, fellow citizens, isn’t it worth going beyond your amp’s built in reverb and getting a proper reverb pedal? I am a tone hound and any time I make changes to my rig I record before and after tracks with a portable recorder with 2 condenser microphones. Then, I compare with headphones. Yes, I’m nerdy that way. I had all but decided on the MXR Reverb or the EH Oceans 11. Then, I saw a comparison of low-cost reverbs on 60 Cycle Hum (a great resource for pedal fans) and decided it would be worth it to take a chance on a lesser-known brand like Flamma. Especially considering the Flamma costs about half of what the other reverbs I considered. Here are my impressions: 1. Reverb is lush and varied 2. Every parameter I would want to tweak is included 3. You can save user settings 4. Even in an effects loop with a daisy chain power supply, the unit operates flawlessly 5. It offers stereo in and outs 6. According to some surf connoisseurs, the spring reverb setting doesn’t truly “drip”. Maybe so, but to my ears, the spring setting is still well represented here and is one of my favorite settings 7. Most importantly, it seems to build a beautiful reverb while retaining your guitar’s tone. It doesn’t transform your tone, it enhances it. So, I believe the Flamma offers great value for those, like me, who are price conscious but still want a quality product. If you are chasing a specific verb setting, like say, the spring setting on the Ocean’s 11, it might be worth spending more money to get that. If, however, you just want an all-around lush reverb, with a sturdy build and plenty of features, I would highly recommend the Flamma FS02.

A few disclosures: 1. Amazon is currently lumping many of the Flamma brand pedals into one spot for reviews. I'm reviewing the FS03 Delay pedal. 2. I'm using this pedal on synths, samplers and drum machines. 3. I'm not using the looper bonus feature on this pedal (it's very bare bones). Right now, we are spoiled for choice with all the budget priced effects pedals out there. With the current holiday discounts and promotions, I've picked up a few pedals from different manufacturers featuring one of my all time favorite effects - delay! The Flamma FS03 delay pedal is a standout. Construction-wise, it's very nicely made. The housing, buttons and knobs all feel sturdy. The layout is intuitive. Stereo in and outs. Well implemented tap tempo option. Like a lot of other people have said, the lights on the foot switch are just too cool! As per usual, you need to supply your own power adapter (there's no battery option, if that's important to you). For choice, there's six different delay algorithms to work with. You can get 'bread and butter' delays out of it that sound very musical, and can be quickly 'dialed in' with the top three knobs. If you like to experiment, the "Tweak1" and "Tweak2" knobs can put you into some pretty weird territory. Again the knob layout is very helpful here, and if you check YouTube, there's some good demo/tutorials on what this pedal is capable of. Most delay effects I get are keepers as every manufacturer tosses in a unique feature or two, but the FS03 from Flamma is one of the best "budget" delay pedals I've come across. :)

I finally broke down and joined the Looper fan club, and I wish I had done it sooner. It really makes a great "sketch pad" to try new ideas, and it's a great learning tool. The cons- the instructions that came with it were a little vague, and I'm a looper newbie, so it took a little getting used to. A trip to YouTube and a little experimenting got me going pretty quickly. I still can't find the accessory footswitch control, which would be nice to have. Some of the drum patterns are, well, horrible. It would be nice to have a "fill" feature, and some editing control over the drums as well. It also might just be me, but the tap tempo is hard to use. The pros- It works, it sounds good, and with 90 drum loops and 10 metronome settings, you might not find THE perfect drum beat, but there's something in there that's pretty close. It's easy to use, and putting overdubs down is a painless affair. Being able to sync the looper and drums is definitely a nice touch. The sound quality is excellent, too. Overall, I'm happy. For the money, it has some nice features, and most importantly, it works as it should. I've had no issues in about 6 months. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a nice looper for a good price. It's a lot of looper for the price.

good quality amaze for the first time when you plugin the pedal nothing will change the sound, and sound awful waste time and money

FS02 Silver Reverb: This is an amazing reverb pedal. I was expecting to spend hundred of dollars to get a reverb pedal with these features and amazing sounds. Presets are completely adjustable and saveable on the unit. You can dial in any type of room, hall, church, etc type reverb you need. This just blew me away! Buy one before they realize how good it is! FS05 Modulation Pedal: This is not just a home run, this is a grand slam pedal. The 7 presets for each effect are virtually all very usable. I bought it mainly for the chorus and liquid effects but after playing with it for about an hour I am absolutely blown away at the sounds that come out of this pedal. This has the same setup as the silver reverb pedal with preset that are fully adjustable. This pedal saves you thousands on other modulation effects like flanger, phaser, etc. Its simply amazing. The quality of sound and versatility of the controls make this a fun pedal. One point to mention, you run this into the front of the amp, not effects loop. It will not work through the send/return loop of the amp. Another amazing 5 star pedal from FLAMMA. I now have 4 FLAMMA pedals and they just keep getting better.

Es la de las mejores compras inteligente que pude hacer, que no te confunda el precio. La verdad es que está muy bien pensado a mí ver la fabricación de este pedal. No es un pedal intentando ser copia de otro. Es un pedal que ofrece prestación innovadora. 1. El hecho de que tenga entrada y salida stereo se agradece, ya que si pretendes armar sonido stereo en tus efectos o tu sonido, este pedal no te limita como otros que hay en el mercado. 2. El ruteo. Puedes entrar en mono y salir en stereo con 2 cabs diferentes y sonidos diferentes en LyR 3. El permitirte cargar IRS se agradece aunque en lo particular no eh tenido que hacerlo los que tienen me han agradado enormemente. Siendo crítico. Lo único que agregaría es que tuviera Salidas DI (balanceadas) Pero por el precio estoy más que satisfecho; además que esto no me afecta para armar mi set, ya que en mi cadena lo pongo justo después de los preamps y antes de los efectos. Y al final de la cadena llegó a una caja directa a bulbos que enriquece enormemente el sonido.

When I purchased this item it appeared to be really good, but I had to return as it would not playback my loops

つまみが多いから初心者は最初分かりにくいかも でも元から設定されてる音だけでも割と良いセッティングだからそのまま使うのもありだし そこから少しずつ弄って使い方覚えるのも良いかもね
