August 29, 2022 · 3 sources

Flamma Innovation released the Flamma FC17 Analog Delay, a mini-pedal built around a bucket-brigade analog delay circuit, Delicious Audio reported on Aug. 29, 2022¹. The outlet described it as filling a space that had remained empty in the pedal roster of "this young Chinese builder": a BBD-based analog delay¹.

The pedal offers delay times from 25ms to 600ms, adjustable with a Time knob, plus mini knobs for Feedback and Echo, and tap tempo¹. It runs a true bypass circuit¹. Flamma's own product copy makes the same claims for the range, the three knobs and the bypass².

Pricing is reported differently. Delicious Audio called the FC17 "super-competitively priced at around $50"¹. Flamma's product page listed a regular price of $59.90 USD and a sale price of $29.90 USD². The page also showed the pedal as sold out².

Pedal of the Day covered the FC17 on Oct. 3, 2022, as the first of five new Flamma pedals it said it would review³. It called the pedal "a simple but excellent-sounding echo effect" and wrote, "For the price and pedalboard flexibility, we really haven't found a comparable brand that does what Flamma does"³.
