Product description

Get hands-free channel switching and more for your Line 6 amp and POD with FBV Express MkII foot controller! FBV Express MkII offers all the classic advantages you expect from a Line 6 foot controller, including rock-solid channel switches, a rugged wah/volume pedal and a chromatic tuner display but it¡¯s also full of surprises. The steel footswitches are built for constant stomping. They make it easy to store and select four channel presets, to synchronize time-based effects with Tap Tempo, and to activate the chromatic tuner. The burly, full-sized volume/wah pedal feels solid under your foot and features plenty of grip. Clicking the toe switch toggles between volume and wah control. FBV Express MkII connects to your Line 6 amp or POD via the included locking RJ-45 cable. FBV Shortboard MkII also features a USB jack that can be used for upgrading the firmware of Spider IV and Spider Valve MkII amplifiers. Perfectly paired with Spider IV and Spider Valve MkII guitar amplifiers, FBV Express MkII provides complete, hands-free control of the looper, pitch-shifter and other on-board amplifier effects. FBV Express MkII is compatible with most Line 6 amplifiers and POD processors.

From the manufacturer

FBV Express MkII

Tough enough for arena stages yet small enough to fit in your backpack, FBV Express MkII delivers a crucial collection of hands-free functionality that will keep you at the foot of the stage instead of tied to the front of your Line 6 amp or POD.

FBV Express MkII delivers out-of-the box, plug-n-play connectivity. Stomp the four steel footswitches to quickly store and select channel presets, synchronize your time-based effects with Tap Tempo, activate the chromatic tuner, and more.

When paired with most Line 6 guitar amplifiers, the footswitches also give you total control of Quick Loop, the amps' built-in 14-second sound-on-sound looper. The burly, full-sized volume/wah pedal feels solid under your foot and features plenty of grip. Clicking the toe-switch toggles between volume and wah control (with an illuminated LED to match). The bright and easy-to-read LCD shows tap tempo, active channel and the chromatic tuner (when activated).

    It's working with GR 5, still need to figure out how to connect it to GR 7 thought. just need to set all the parameters on Line 6 FBV control software first.

    The only downside is that "it doesn't come with the USB cable!!" which was weird! only the LAN cable is included.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An absolute must have for LINE 6 amp or POD
    Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2014
    Verified Purchase
    I ran with the factory firmware version 1.0 on my line 6 spider 4-120 for two years oblivious to the fact that I had to have at least the 99.00 4 switch wah pedal to change the colors I paint with, or sound fx. I used to have a Peavey Transfex 212 with a 10 switch pedal. This was worth its weight in gold playing live. Going from clean to crunch, psychedelic to acoustic, crazy to mild, gives you the ability to change fx at the speed of sound. Covering some songs requires it, writing your own music makes it essential. With the FBV pedal you also get a built in link to the spider 4's tuner in a better way than the amps own display. Its also the only way to connect the amp online to update it. A major design flaw line 6, but a damn good way to ensure you sell a boatload of pedals. With that said, you get 4 chan switches but no way to browse banks, so your stuck in 1 of 4 channels of bank "A" for example. You must go to the back of the stage, select a new bank "B" an then back to the pedal and select the fx you wanted to begin with. Tedious for live playing. I pick bank A, then program the four sounds I need for a few songs, then change banks between songs. Works ok. The other thing you cant miss about this pedal is the very average volume and wah pedal. The volume side is sooooooo sensitive, it goes from naught to blaring in one tiny tap. To get from vol to wah you must press an electronic "pressure" pad at the top of the pedal that requires several attempts in most cases to activate. Once you get past the popping and clicking of the repeated stomps and get to the wah side, it is a very non natural electronic sound. When comparing to a baby wah or cry baby, you get none of the tube like sound that you expect or desire. I did find that using a wah sounding effect while using the pedal helps a ton.
    On the plus side, and there are a few. this thing is a Sherman tank. Solid build quality can handle just about anything the stage can throw at it, including the stage. I read a story of the entire forward light truss falling on the guitar setup area, destroying mic stands all the bonus pedals, a les paul, a monitor speaker, and floor lights and lasers. The line six fbv pedal had one scratch and a torn rubber wah cover. Rock solid. Made with what every rock pedal should be, heavy metal. The sound switching, although limited to one bank at a time is clean and seamless. The lighting on the pedal, all l.e.d.'s, are very bright even in the brightest daylight and stage lighting. The tuners lights fade from dim to bright as your tuning reaches desired frequency. Very easy to read. The main bonus of the fbv pedal is the cat 5/6 cable connection to the net, with it you can not only update the firmware of the spider amps, you can download the home made effects of other users via the line 6 website. This is for me the goldmine. We have all been amazed by the quality of how close line 6's artist inspired tones sound. These take that a full light year closer to reality, sounding almost perfect in some cases and dead on in others. Inspiration will take you for a ride with some of these tones that I dare say you would not have found otherwise. My advice is as follows; if you can only afford the 100 bones on a pedal buy it. It's worth it for the ability to switch channels, the make shift wah, and the icing on the cake is the download ability for updates and user made tones. Now if you have 200 bones and a loving spouse, mother or landlord pickup the Line 6 FBV Shortboard MkII Foot Controller here http://www.amazon.com/Line-FBV-Shortboard-MkII-Controller/dp/B002GYWBKK/ref=pd_cp_MI_2 and take total floor control of your Line 6 amp and POD
    foot switches for preset bank select, effect select, tuner, tap tempo, and a full-sized volume/wah pedal with plenty of grip, Over sized and bright LCD displays chromatic presets and tuner with a USB jack and an RJ-45 jack as well. thats the thick and thin of it... hope it helps. Like an old guitarist told me, better play everyday or throw it away, it starts over at the 12th fret, and learn your scales.

    I have been longing a pedalboard for my, now old, Flextone III XL for around 17 years now, for my distinct collection of guitars with either humbuckers or single coil pickups. It can¡¯t be any easier than this...

    The Pedalboard arrived in just 2 days from order, was supplied with the cable and just so easy to set up. You have 4 pedals to play with, which I set up within minutes for a clean and dirty setting for both Humbuckers and Single Coils. Step on the used pedal for a few seconds and you get the tuner, which is very accurate.....and you have the expression pedal for the volume control OR Wah Wah...fantabulous! Just wished I got one earlier!

    It¡¯s robust....it¡¯s lightweight....it looks cool....and it works!

    What more can you ask for?

    Ich fasse mich kurz:

    Programmiersoftware: totaler Schrott und un¨¹bersichtlich, genauso wie bei den meisten Herstellern.

    Das Produkt: Kaufempfehlung, da alle LINE 6 Produkte aufeinander abgestimmt sind und man sehr schnell die Funktionen durch Ausprobieren findet die man sucht.

    Qualitativ ist das Produkt hochwertig. Der wah-wah effekt ist eine Nebensache und wegen diesen Effektes sollte man das Produkt nicht kaufen, es ist nicht daf¨¹r gemacht worden.
