All user reviews for the Behringer FCB1010 Midi Foot Controller

How long have you use it?

Almost 2 years now.


What is the particular feature you like best and least?

Are price, its 61 keys, type controllers assignable and that it takes into account the strength of the touch. is used to store song parts with nuance. And grant that has either midi signals, I already used as a "remote control" for squenceur.

After, it is a convenient Controller, but basic. If you need a piano or touch something that goes del simply Controller noon, go your way.


Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

I go around the keyboard slightly prs similar type m-audio oxygen.


How do you report qualitprix?

Rather good. I was looking for a keyboard-controlling in real time and lenregistrement vst. He was all, so it's very good!


With experience, you do again this choice? ...dropoff Window

Yes, no doubt. Still ttant me with other keyboard in the same range. I chose this keyboard because there was a promo. Characteristics and gales, if for any price decline has help choosing ...

I use it for 6 months.
I use it as a controller in Ableton Live 9.
It serves me many things;
- Check the tracks (track playback, record, stop ...)
- Loop-Station with PlugIn Mobius ...
...

I struggled as it is not allowed to configure ... and thank you to forumeurs Audiofanzine because they have provided a link to a site to set up my stuff in Ableton among others ...

I have not done the upgrade UNO, I do not need it. The possibilities are enormous if they have a good editor, and unlimited patience (with me, he almost passed several times through the window) ...

The design is rugged enough for live use.

Anyway, there is no competition at this price point ...

When he had to return to pedal noon to cause re-equipment rack to turn pro, the choice was not very wide. This is an opportunity that makes the thief and it is a choice that paid off in the first months of use. It is virtually unbreakable. His only weakness may come from two wheels encoding expression pedals that become imprecise force dust and fair quality plastic they are made (optical cells). It is programmable stepper and "gear friendly" with other products such as the behringer v-amp.
It is also upgradable: you may change the chip for the UNO which transforms it into stompbox controller, it all editable pc / mac via IFCB. So of course, it does not grow further (up to 128 cc) but it's enough to drive most current Multieffects apart from eventide and lexicon.

I bought it used with the UNO chip already installed
Buy the basis for control effects in reason with my Keytar.
I recently had the guitar and he's found a new use in the coupling with Guitar Rig.
Used with Guitar Rig 5 and 7 Reason (for plug line 6).
In Guitar rig I used in GR for:
- The 1,2,3,4,5 switch and switch up / down to change the preset
- The Switch 6,7,8,9 and 10 to activate the effect generally like distortion, chorus, delay, the reveb
- 1 st expression pedal on the Wah
- 2 nd expression pedal Volume or Whammy

A bit complex to program but once mastered it works nickel.
Hardware level is solid with a metal case and switch on the air to keep going.
I not use it 100%, I know for example that in the two programs we can Programmer output to make the channel switcher and, for example, the reverb amp.

The only complaint I can make it: I liked a mode or all switch can make switching effect (and still need to find a sound with 10 effects switcher

A pedal that I use it for 2 months to control VST effects for guitar and synth and a software Loop (Mobius).

It does the job perfectly, it's everything I expected and for the price, there is no hesitation.
I use it only through my PC (not control hardware), and there is a free software not supplied (FCB1010 PC Editor) which makes it very simple configuration, unlike the configuration directly on the pedal.

However, two caveats:

* It lacks some features that are filled by the purchase of the "Uno chip" including the fact that if I switched an effect on a pedal and a second on another, I should press it again 2 times the first to cut first effect (I do not know if it's clear ...)
Too bad it is not standard.

* The expression pedals are not very accurate air but I have no point of comparison, because I've never used other before.

In the end, despite these two minor flaws, this is a great product, and I would do the purchase without hesitation.

Purchased. In the year

I have not tried d.autre model because it was the cheapest

The big -: the manual Berhinger as usual, one must understand a little midday programming for use as a control surface.

The big +: its low price, the number of control, robustness
Very good value for money ... The best on the market

I already have two, and I think I bought the other hand because I need a Large control surfaces

Accuracy, I bought these pedals for two separate and simultaneous use

1 is used to control mainstage as a classical guitar multi effect ... The do not worry, with or without the select function directly, it works.

The second, now serves to control Ableton Live, and it's a bit more complicated when one knows nothing midi ..

J.ai fortunately the chance to qualify for training "AFDAS" and I just had the right to a week with a trainer has broken it, and now I understood how it worked ...

You just program it to send "notes" and not "exchange program" and learn the function of the software does the rest ....

And now it works perfectly ... A real pleasure!

For those interested in "tutorials" already exists "and other out soon.

My trainer is working.

Anyway who hacked and is bent, the controller can drive most daw worthy of the name.

How long have you use it? :
I do not intensively used. I really bought to control apps amp simulation, and telling me that it would also serve in case of purchase of hardware compatible ...

Have you tried many other models before buying it? :
Not. This product seems to be alone in its class and price range ...

How do you like the most? :
There's everything you need as a switch and expression pedal for fun. Pedals expressions themselves work very well a good time to reconfigure (I have caused to reset the pedal to be able to re-adjust the 2nd expression pedal correctly)

How do you like the least? :
It is really antiquated design!
- No USB, so no possibility of power supply by USB port (and therefore the weight of gear)
- Therefore required to have a midi cable-in addition to the midi-out to edit settings via a computer
- Soft Edition worthy of the name unavailable / not found on PC (and not even by Behringer mac, not official ...)
- Direct editing on pedal a little heavy, especially when all the pedals are configured at once
- Can not configure both pedals up / down to the same thing on a soft (they serve only to navigate programs pedals ...)
- It does not seem to be a "latch" mode, so the animal must config with 1 preset for each pressure, which sometimes means having to press 2x pedal for the desired action

How would you rate the quality / price? :
There's no other real choice.

With experience, you do again this choice? :
Not if a manufacturer (or other Behringer) went a similar version, even for a big ticket again, but advantage adapted to the modern world, with midi-over-usb (in addition to the standard MIDI) + supply + true soft config + preset for different softwares / hardwares, etc ...

I use it for more than a month
I had a MKII express
Very good pedal a bit complicated at first, but after a few hours of study
I do not know me in the past!!

I drive my POD XT is the max!
Value for money is good
The pedals are costau,
Yes I remake this choice without problem!

A configurable wish
Eg on bank 1 preset 6-7-8-9-10 there is delay-Stomp-MOD-Reverb-EQ

bank on the 02 preset 6 delay on-off delay 7-8-9 ON STOMP stomp off
10-MOD 5 MOD ON-OFF
On bank assets wah 03 ON / OFF switch on 8-10
the 1-2-3-4 - there are places that the channel you wish!

In short, a little gem for cheap!

I blame him just a little manual.
