Line 6 AMPLIFi FX100

Multi effects pedal in order to simulate amps easily tip of your finger using an iPad / iPod / iPhone to.
The idea is great and very friendly especially since you can share full sound with an active community of Line6eur (Artists)

The connection is nothing more simple: Wiring guitar / amp area and playing

You have more details on the Line 6 website live.

UTILIZATION

Then, it become chilly ..

Already must have an internet if you want to use the software connection. (It was not all the wifi / 3G ...) so if you are international, you will pay extra packages. (Just to start your application).

Well open your application and let you in the background. (Board)

First bluetooth connection on your pedal .... and update it.

Do not hurry. 45 minute wait .. (as you say, this pedal start outside the repeat if your colleagues rifle look, especially if you repeat with women - the way a big Kisses to you: D: D: D)

Last day finished, we will seek a sound ... and ................................... ......................

SOUND QUALITY

................. Never found such power / distortion / acute horrible ...
8:00 intensive to coexist my Cort and my amp Vox30 ... and still not found a clean sound settings.

As with the POD HD 500X bam few seconds ... so there NADA ..

While other effects (delays - reverb) are good bills .. the distortion was really a misnomer. I tried everything, removed amp / pedals tried ALL available, play with the gain / high / low / medium / etc etc ... => EIR N. ..

Anyway ...

OVERALL OPINION

Return to sender .... after two weeks acharnation (yes it does not say but it's bound to say )

I like Line6 products but I'm really disappointed. So what is my guitar / amp is not compatible: can be .... but then why the POD HD 500X any good?

Too bad, because I liked the concept of any pay via iPhone / iPod / iPad ...

see description on the site line 6.
The sounds are programmable via bluetoth on ipad or iphone application AMPLIFI by remote.
Simple to use, the settings are reduced but sufficient to obtain good results.
Many sounds are available in the Line 6 community accessible by the application

UTILIZATION

The manual is nonexistent, 8 pages unfortunate, and to update the system must have a little patience.
For example, at the end of the procedure, you need to reset the pedal. I found the method in the abstract of a web page that no longer exists. For he who seeks the ignition must be pressed at the same time on the big volume knob and the Tap button for a while ..!
The FX100 is usable without wifi and no bluetooth.
The pedal remembers your sounds you can save either the pedal or in the cloud or both.
Connected to wifi you can access the database to search for her.
Off wifi bluetooth can change sounds via Amplifi remote on iphone or ipad.

So far so good after using live is IMPOSSIBLE.
Line 6 had the great idea to save on two unfortunate buttons increment banks. To change the bank must simultaneously press the A and B presets to mount or C and D buttons to move down.
To test all sounds either 25 banks (with 4 presets), the change is an obstacle course. 3 out of 4 times you miss the move and you get a pretty zigouigoui look great in concert!
Line 6 will have been able to catch the blow with the application, but again missed because if you can select a sound from the application that does not update the pedals.

SOUND QUALITY

The sounds are good bills
Grades are used with Sg

OVERALL OPINION

I bought it two days ago and he will leave with his dealer.
If using iphone or ipad is via a good idea (provided of course to have one), the pedal is completely unusable, it's just a Pod with 4 buttons for decoration.
Line 6 missed its target, being able this time to a switch (not on HD500X) and skimp on buttons change banks is in my opinion a very big mistake.
I really wanted to love it but now I can not ...
