Mooer F15i Li: New Intelligent Amp for Guitar
Portable feature packed desktop amp
The new Mooer F15i Li is the latest Intelligent Amp from the company, and comes complete with a circular touchscreen. Their latest desktop guitar amp packs in many useful functions for guitarists and songwriters.
Mooer F15i Li
Rated at 15W, the Mooer F15i Li Intelligent Amp comes in a compact desktop amp format with a host of useful features and offers stereo sound via a pair of 2-inch speakers. It only weighs around 1.48 kg (3.26 lbs) and has up to 6 hours of rechargeable lithium battery life, making to ideal for users on the move (they also include a carrying strap).
The front panel is minimal with a control knob for Value and Master, plus buttons for Tools, Tap, Tuner, and Preset, along with a power button.
Bluetooth
This model comes equipped with Bluetooth 5 and is compatible with the Mooer F4 wireless footswitch, allowing for hands-free control.
Like most Mooer desktop amps, they have packed in a lot of useful features, so having access to a footswitch to trigger onboard FX, etc, is very helpful.
Circular Touchscreen
The standout feature, as I mentioned at the start of the article, is the 1.28-inch circular touchscreen, as it enables users to navigate all the built-in features and provides visual feedback on what modes the amp is set to.
It reminds me aesthetically of a 1950s radio dial, especially with the front grill behind it, but updated for the modern age.
Tones, FX & Sharing
This amp uses Mooer’s in-house MNRS nonlinear modeling technology and comes with 55 amp models. Then their iAMP effect system offers 69 effect types, giving users plenty of options to choose from.
The iAMP mobile app is used for advanced effect chain editing, plus preset, tonesharing (via Mooer Cloud), and any firmware updates for the F15i Li.
With support for 3rd-party IRs, this little guitar amp can be tailored to the tones that you want.
Packing in the Features
They manage to squeeze in a built-in tuner, 60-second looper, and drum machine (60 drum grooves and 10 types of metronome).
Hardware connections include a USB-C connection for OTG audio recording, a pair of line-out jacks for external amplification, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Verdict
Mooer knows how to pack in the features with their products, and they frequently feature in our best amp roundups. If you need value for money, then it is hard not to consider their products in your choices, as they certainly pack a punch.
I can see these being popular worldwide, and the portability aspect makes them ideal for many musicians. Being able to record, loop, and add effects, plus IRs, are all things that make this range worth checking out. Especially, as the price point is well under $200!
