All user reviews of 4/5 for the Rocktron Midimate V2

I used my Midimate during four years of intense and for the scene (2-4 representation week).
The conditions were difficult (humidity, sand, dust). Despite this the pedals into shock. Just midday taken a little fragile.
Robust and reliable buttons (that often what is missing in this type of product).
I just pilot program changes to:
Marshall JVM40 / Delay Eventide Timefactor
After these four years of difficult treatment is definitely failed, but I do not put in the machine default, because the conditions were sometimes more than limit.
I'm looking for another Midimate because its very easy to use, the obvious programming, perfect ergonomics (weight and size limited) and accessibility feet do for me today the best foot control noon to u guitarist making a lot of live.

Midi pedal relatively compact (50x14), robust, inspiring strength.
I find her look very nice, even if it is a detail.
No expression pedal, but the possibility of adding via the jack on the back of the unit ...
The red is very visible.

The buttons are small round white rubber. I thought they would be less convenient than large switches the Behringer or Roland, but no ... they snap right from the time you press correctly!
Good afternoon to use Live regular, I think the other reviews will enlighten you more ...

Discovering the "Midi" via the Xpression pedal and I'm not too struggled to start. Well designed and full manual (already said!), Available in French on the website.

I think this is a good pedal to start at home and rehearsals.
Its price is really good ... occaz a hundred €!
I sold it recently because I did not have great utility. If I had adventures redeem a Midi pedal, I think I would resume, after I inquired about other models anyway ...

I use to control a head Midimate Diezel Hagen and a pedal Eventide TimeFactor.

The general operation, including the method with 5 PCs and 5 CC is very good and allows (line) to control almost any rig. The trouble in my case: CC buttons are not momentary, and it is not adjustable. So, it is impossible to use it correctly to deal with a tap tempo or any device that works with DC momentary, as ... the TimeFactor: (

This is something to know for future buyers, which is not necessarily clear in the manual.

Another worry for some reason the title of the first preset always starts with "___", even after renaming. So "Clean" becomes "___an". Either it is not serious, but it's there. I also had two concerns when a midi channels, which are all ironed off by themselves.

Otherwise, the Midimate seems solid, the rubber buttons are quite nice.

In short, overall a good pedal, but the story of DC and small bugs that I may have to replace it soon.

The Rocktron Midimate v2 is a midi pedal that I tried after using the one by Behringer. The Rockton Midimate is a good midi pedal with 128 presets and can be synced up in a heart beat. You will have no problems with this midi pedal. The manual that comes with it is very easy to understand, I actually lost my manual so I contacted them and they emailed me a digital version of the manual. I just wanted it on hand just in case I needed it or if I sold it I would want to be able to put the manual with it.

This unit in general is as well built as the Behringer midi pedals. It actually seems to be not very well put together. In the few months that I used it I never had any problems with it though. But just doesn’t seem to be as solidly built as I like my gear. I need my gear to be able to take a beaten because I travel a lot and take my gear all over the place and it will have to take some bangs and bumps.

Keep in mind that the Rocktron Midimante needs phantom power though. Either from a source that you already have with your interface or you will need to purchase some phantom power. I didn’t have that end mind when I got this. The Rockton Midimate has 12 banks and each bank has up to maybe 15 presets if I am remembering correctly. There are also 10 switches. The unit itself isn’t that big itself so its very easy to lug around.

Overall, its not bad. I just prefer the Behringer Midi pedals over this one just because I feel like it’s a better deal for the money and its built stronger. Though there is nothing wrong with this one at all, Rocktron has created a very affordable midi pedal that you will love. Give it a shot! But trust me you will like the Behringer mdi pedal better.

Prefs, activation / deactivation of real-time effects, 130 presets displayed by number and by name! YES! we can give them a name (8 characters) that glows in the dark! Too much!

A MIDI OUT only, but is 7-pin! So I can connect to my Triaxis using a phantom power! AWESOME! Even a cable and a power strip less!

An outlet for expression pedal type EV-5 (or Rocktron HEX), a power supply socket '(which is not me!).

Otherwise, b'en is also built like a tank!

My fourth (and final??) MIDI pedal! After a Roland/FC100 MkII which ignites a Yamaha idiot with only up to eight foot, after the necessary tapouiller fléflèches to mano as fléflèches were not designed for the 42, X15 and Art full, too full.

We arrive at tranquillou hack without reading the doc! Wow !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Addition, 13/03/2004:

B'en here, I had the silly idea to buy me another MIDI pedal to control my VAMP2 ... Behringer FCB1010 a bo. I'm trying to get rid of the Behringer, which, again, is far too complex and too full of features I never use MIDI. It is too big and it weighs a dead donkey, the 1010.

In short, I restored my old Midimate 1.0 (red and black) to drive the VAMP2, and I always use my Midimate 2.0 (white and black) with my rack. Still nothing better in ease of use (real plug and play), lightness (though robust, Heiniger!), And features twelve o'clock basic right for me (changing preset, on / off of an effect or a parameter, preset name display on the pedals).
