# fb200-tools: reconstructing FLAMMA FB200 firmware and control protocols

> fb200-tools reconstructs the FLAMMA FB200 bass pedal's firmware behavior and USB HID/BLE controls in replacement firmware and device utilities. Its research documents the stock .mr image, command framing, DSP parity work, presets, and update path; the author reports testing selected features on a physical pedal.
