A powerful, midi foot controller for your midi controlled effects and more.The Behringher FCB1010 by itself is a decent midi foot controller, but it has its bugs... Midi input and throughput is messed up and unpredictable, programming is a beast to master and the useability is limited because of its "buggyness". BUT NOW THOSE ISSUES HAVE BEEN IMPROVED thanks to the UNO firmware upgrade by OSSANDDUST in Belgium.This FCB1010 has been upgraded already, and is now a fully functional, powerful and economical solution for all the midi footpedal tasks you have. It does:Midi Program Change (PC) on multiple channels if neededMidi NotesTap TempoMidi Expression Pedals (configureable individually for each preset)Midi Control Change (CC)It now has stompbox functions to turn individual effects on and off within a preset.And a whole lot more...I've been using it to run my effects pedal board (lightly gigged - no noticeable marks or blemished) and its done great. Now I'm looking to get something smaller (Boss FC-50 really basic).Here is the link to the Harmony Central Reviews (notice how the reviews go from REALLY BAD to REALLY GOOD once the users get decent firmware upgrades?): http://reviews.harmony-central... Foot Controllers are going for 150$ on Musician's Friend WITHOUT the upgrade... So this way you can save money and the time of waiting for your chip to be sent from BELGIUM... AND save the headache of opening it up, installing the chip, and initializing the upgrade.Here is the website to the company that sells the firmware chips with which it's been upgraded already (no need to set up or install anything to do with the upgrade). http://www.ossandust.be/This is the latest upgrade available, and from the web reviews, it is widely acclaimed as the best upgrade option for this pedal board. |
