Does exactly what it says on the tin.
I bought this footswitch to use as a midi controller with BiasFX 2 via Reaper to turn on and off virtual guitar pedals within the BiasFX program.
It worked straight out of the box without having to fiddle with any settings (only Reaper itself needed a couple of changes). The pedals all have a nice feel and a satisfying click. The wah pedal has just the right amount of resistance. You just assign the physical pedals to your virtual pedals and you're off.
Very happy with this product.

Perfect Price
The Line6 FBV Express MKII is the perfect accompniment to many Line6 products such as Spider IV amps and the POD.
Personally I have a Spider IV 150w Amp which is a great combo modelling amp, however it can be impractical when it comes to changing channels etc. In order to do this you need a dedicated footswitch or floorboard. I chose the FBV Express MKII because I was happy with the fact that it could change up to four channel settings and was far cheaper than the FBV Shortboard MKII. The one tap tuning is a breeze to use and the dual wah/volume pedal is faultless.
The price from Thomann was yet again superb, I had been searching the web for this product in the uk and whilst there were some reasonable deals to be had it was Thomann who were by far the cheapest, their price was within £10 or so of secondhand ones being sold on ebay. I was even tempted to go for the FBV Shortboard due to their price but managed to resist temptation.
The product was delivered to Scotland within 3 days of ordering so absolutely nothing to complain about there either.

Great Quality for the money !
I bought this Line6 FBV Express MKII from Thomann in Germany
because I value their great quality accessories, great prices , and
with fast and safe deliveries.
I am a modest electric guitar player and I have an old (but amazing)
Line6 Spider-IV-75 watt amp to practice on and make some very
cool noises.
The Line6 FBV Express MKII is the perfect partner to many
of Line6 products. I did a lot of online research about it and many
musicians recommend it.
It is very well made, very sturdy and is a compact-sized Footswitch for
a very good price. Its not too heavy either -just the perfect weight
and size to fit into my guitar gig-bag or a small suitcase for traveling.
The FBV Express MKII can also be used on many other amps,
DAWs and software systems which is an extra bonus !
It is a very useful accessory for any musician who does not have
alot of money to buy expensive equipment.
The cool footswitch "Wah-Wah-Pedal" works very nice and it
also has a built in tuner.
Some times it is difficult to find these Line6 FBV Express MKII
available in music stores, but I am very happy
that Thomann still has them in stock brand NEW ,
and at a very cool reasonable price.
Thank You Thomann ! You are the best !

Works well with Spider V 30 MkII
I bought this to go with my Spider V 30 MkII and it works perfectly. The expression pedal is smooth and I've set it up to use as a whammy pedal on most of my presets.

Not Bad for the Price
I bought this pedal to control my POD X3 bean.
Functionally speaking, this thing is pretty plug and play. It's certainly not infinitely customizable, but it definitely serves its main purpose: to switch between tones and operate the pedal function of said tones.
I don't use my POD live as much as I had anticipated I would, so mostly this thing serves to jump between my selected tones during my writing process. I definitely haven't taken the time to take advantage of it's full range of capabilities, but again, it fulfills a need. What you see is what you get. Reasonable build quality and functionality, but by no means mind-blowing.
Good purchase.

Essential kit
I bought this to go with my Line6 Spider Jam 75W.
It serves three useful functions.
1 Foot control for looping. This is essential for making an uninterrupted silent continual loop while still playing your instrument.
2 Volume control and Wah using the pedal. Two separate functions accessed by a hard press on the top of the pedal, no danger of doing so accidentally.
3 Tone/effects switching. Four different switches to choose from programmed or user defined tones and effects.
Oh yes, and an easy LED chromatic tuner. That is also very useful especially in the dark on stage.
It is solid and reliable and worth the price.

Affordable, simple and effective foot controller
I bought one of these for a project and have been using it live to control my Kemper via a custom made converter to MIDI. Even though the bottom cover and buttons are made of plastic the device is well built and robust. The cable that ships with the unit is kind of annoying as it is very hard to keep straight and the rubber protection around the RJ45 connector comes off easily. The buttons don't give much of a feedback when pressed and the button underneath the pedal is hard to press. Overall I like this footswitch although I now realize that only 5 buttons and a 1 character LCD is kind of limiting.

Simple & straight forward
This was just what I needed. I use this with my old POD X3 Pro. I wanted something small, and this compact board fits comfortably in my guitar bag. It is much more affordable that the bigger board.
The expression pedal works really well, and this board even connects to the tuner on my POD rack?very impressed! The tuner is LED lit, so you will be able to tune in the dark.
The RJ-45 cable that comes with the board is very long and sturdy, so it would work great on the big stage too.
The only thing is that I cannot switch between banks, but that isn't something that's really necessary for me, as I would only need the four!
And finally, this order came to me in the UK in just 3 days, so I can't complain there!

A little pricey for what it do, but is perfect
All I wanted was to be able to control my amp channels with a footswitch, it has a volume pedal and a tunner, so it is very versatil.
Is a little pricey but works perfectly.
As a side note, it will not work with the Spider II and Spider III 15 W amp
