I've been wanting one of these since I saw it demoed online for NAMM. Finally got one!!! I just unboxed it today. I'll be testing it out and making some videos with it. The unit goes for about $400 (my plugin/pedal budget is about $150, so if you are on a gear budget, start saving!) which is a couple hundred less than line 6 and head rush smaller boards available that it's meant to compete with. It's got a COLOR TOUCH SCREEN which amazing considering the price point, but unlike the HEAD RUSH which has NO EDITOR APP, this one has a full featured software editor as well as the touch screen interface. Honestly, every board 1k and under should have both. Hotone has thrown down the app/color touch screen gauntlet smile.gif It's guts are based on the XSTOMP which I have been a big fan of and so I can't wait to give this a whirl!!!!

I came across a brand called Valeton.

It makes cheap pedals.

I searched a little bit and found that it is a member of the Hotone company.

That made me wonder whether they use the same components, same settings etc

They have some great prices. This unit is meant to compete with stuff like the tech21 flyrig. It's a handy pedal and very portable. Great demo! I'm guessing some of the tech does drift between products from a given vendor.
