FCB1010 : Great budget midi controller for the price

I purchased my FCB1010 to use with my Elevenrack and have found it great. My main gripe would be that the 2 expression pedals are a bit cheap feeling, although for the price of the unit that isn't really a big gripe. There aren't any other midi controllers with so many options in this price bracket, although I felt that the FCB1010 had far more options than I need - it'd be great if there was a unit that was half the size of this one available. I found this unit a little heavy to be carrying about with me to gigs when I have a rack case, guitar etc too.

It does have very solid metal construction and the buttons do seem very rugged. It has a big bright display and if I felt like I needed the functions, I'd definitely replace it like for like.
