Re: FALMA
Yeah, it's weird for me to like a simple pedal like this, but it just sounds great and is very inspirational. It's also nice to be able to really know a pedal after playing with it for just 30 minutes. I'm still trying to get my head all the way around Fabrikat and I've probably had that for a year already.

Re: FALMA
I've had a couple of moments to play with Falma. It's a nice, simple destabilizer. It works well with other things. Some people like Fairfield's Shallow Water for subtle warbles but I like this a lot more.
I find myself wanting a bit more control of the speed and I wish there was a bit of volume boost sometimes but I remind myself it's a product of its limitations.

Re: FALMA
Sounds cool! If anyone falls out of love with theirs, hit me up. I'd love to try it!

Though the pedal in it's current form is a limited release I will investigate options to develop this project into a more fully realized pedal. Maybe next year?..

Re: FALMA
Yeah, I'd be into a more-developed thing. It seems like there's a lot of interest. People want Draume without the reverb and stuff like the Generation Loss and Shallow Water are pretty popular.
I saw the email about the sub-par Falmas and a more resonant tone control actually seems like it could be cool.

Re: FALMA
Had a few days with the FALMA and I'm really loving this thing. Running it in a Matrise loop with a Blooper and SSBS Fuck to get some really nice tape-like warbles and using the Fuck threshold to just get a little bit of dirt on the loop. The FALMA has a lot of great character- Knut you killed this one. Can't wait to see if you come out with something even further developed, but this thing is super rad on its own.

Re: FALMA
was coming here to say the same thing. I really dig the Falma. It turns my hum drum guitar playing into magic. Truly inspiring box.

Re: FALMA
I'm pretty sure I missed out on the lottery for the "B stock" batch for Falma. Congrats to those who got a second chance! Offer still stands for anyone not feeling the Falma love to buy it off them. Thanks!

Re: FALMA
Hey there Knut! Excited for Falma v2 and the sneak preview control shot on Instagram. When are you thinking for release?

Re: FALMA
Sounds good. Fingers crossed for you! QQ: are you considering any kind of low cut for Falma? A HPF or low cut switch?

Re: FALMA
Could be fun for tone sculpting / mangling!

Re: FALMA
A master volume for FALMA would be nice. I have found that at times it can quiet my signal especially when stacking with other pedals. I think FEBER > FALMA, the FALMA muted the signal a bit.

Re: FALMA
How different is the new FALMA from the older FALMA? More knobs, yes...
having the ability to make it louder looks real nice (that was a needed improvement)...the AM.R looks interesting as well
