Quick guide from the manual
The Flamma FF01 is a stereo looper pedal featuring 40 storage slots, each supporting up to 4 minutes of recording time. It includes dual footswitches for independent control of recording, playback, and overdubbing, as well as USB connectivity for computer-based data management.
Safety Precautions
- Use only a 9V 200mA power adapter with internal negative and external positive configuration.
- Avoid operating in humid environments or near water.
- Keep the device away from strong magnetic fields (radios, TVs) to prevent interference.
- Do not force switches or controls.
Device Layout
The pedal features a screen for status, a SELECT/SAVE knob for parameter adjustment, and a VOLUME/DELETE knob for output control. The left footswitch handles recording/overdubbing/playback, while the right footswitch manages stop/clear functions. Input and output jacks are 1/4 inch unbalanced, with a dedicated 1/8 inch headphone output.
Looper Operations
- Recording: Press the left footswitch in an empty track state to start recording.
- Overdubbing: Press the left footswitch during playback to start overdubbing.
- Undo/Redo: Press and hold the right footswitch for 1 second during playback to undo the last layer; repeat to redo.
- Stop: Press the right footswitch during playback to stop.
- Clearing: Press the right footswitch twice and hold for 1 second to clear unsaved data.
Computer Data Management
Connect the FF01 to a computer via USB-C. The device will appear as a removable disk. Inside the WAVE folder, you will find subfolders W01 to W40 corresponding to the 40 storage slots. You can drag and drop 44.1kHz/16Bit WAV stereo files into these folders. Ensure files are renamed to RECXX (e.g., REC01 for slot W01) for the pedal to recognize them.
