I have had the helix lt, helix stomp, Fender tone master pedal and let me just say…the cab sims on this and the choices within the effects BLOW THEM AWAY!!! Do yourself a favor..spend the money!! You won’t regret it!!!

There are a few of these multi effects processor units on the market, all with many features similar to this FX150. Compared to the others, the big difference for this Flamma FX150 is the touch screen. I also have a Valeton GP200 and was curious if the touchscreen on the Flamma would make much of a difference in terms of ease of use. After spending some time with the FX150, I can say that the touch screen really does make a noticeable difference when you are using the unit on its own. When connected to a PC and using the app, which will control most features of the unit (no looper controls in app), the touchscreen makes less of a difference since most control is done from the computer. I went back to the Valeton GP200 after using the Flamma for a while and found myself trying to touch the screen on the Valeton to control it... missed having the touch screen! Sound quality for the unit is good with included presets that sound OK, but a lot of them are effects heavy to show off what the unit can do. Easy enough to edit existing and/or create new presets that are more useful. The unit has an all-metal housing that feels sturdy with footswitches that have a soft click feel. The unit is small enough in size that you could travel with it, but it's worth noting that it has an external power brick... something I didn't see shown in the product images. I included an image with this review showing the unit with the power brick. The FX150 includes a tuner, drum machine with decent sound drum rhythms (including metronome sounds), and a looper that has dubbing and playback drum syncing. There is also an aux in which allows a music playback device (e.g., phone or mp3 player) to be connected for playing along. I almost forgot to mention the expression pedal which can be customized for different functions for each preset (wah, volume, etc.) These features, in addition to the large, responsive touch screen, all add up to make this a compact, easy to use, and complete guitar practice unit.

First of all, in order to clarify any confusion, the "no battery" expression means this model is non rechargeable. There are two versions of the FX-150, the rechargeable FX-150B and the non rechargeable FX-150. This one, the FX-150, is powered by an AC adapter with a three pronged outlet like you would see in a laptop adapter. Pedal junkies have heard this before. It's built like a tank. Good weight, solid, and super easy to use. There's no manual in the box, only a leaflet that describes the controls. You'll need to go the the manufacturer's website to download the manual. I was lost until I read the manual. The touchscreen is as sensitive as a cell phone. Very nice! The pre-loaded programs aren't very useful to me. Lots of heavy distortions that all kind of sound the same to an older guitarist like myself. I went to the open slots and started programming my own sounds - compression, overdrive, modulation, delay, and reverb. Within a half hour, I was able to closely reproduce my pedalboard. I love the touch sensitive slide controls that allow you to drag your finger to dial in the amount of effect you want. You can even drag the pedals to the order you want. There's a fully adjustable drum machine and one of my favorite effects, a looper. It's also worth mentioning that it has an exhaustive list of amps and cabs. More than I've ever seen in a single processor. I've owned several multi effects units over the years and the Flamma FX-150 has the quickest learning curve of any so far. I'm not familiar with the brand but it ranks among the best I've tried in its price range. It's an excellent practice tool and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending it for stage use as well. I'm going to be paying closer attention to this brand in the future.
