Behringer FCB1010 4-stars Reviews

Good MIDI pedal to a reasonable price.

Using this one with an Axe Fx II and it works well switching presets and whatnot. If you wanna get more advanced and have a pedal change individual effects inside a presents, you will need a 3rd party logic board for that. The expression pedals can be set to control individual effects, but they'r really not that good since there's no weight or balance to make them more precise. They feel very cheap and I don't really use them at all.

THE standard midifootcontroller!

The Behringer FCB1010 is one of the most used midicontrollers these days. Originally created to control the Behringer V-Amp series, it can be used with all the popular guitarpreamps on the market, for example the Kemper Profilamp, nearly every Line6 Pod, the Rocktron Preamps or Fractal Audios Axe-Fx.

It's easy to program and set up.

I use it with the Fractal Audio Axe-Fx Ultra and I don't think about getting an other Midicontroller. The price is unbeatable in relation to the given quality. I'm considering getting a second one as backup and for use at home. Especially the two expressionpedals are great to use as a volume, whammy, wha or to control different parameters.

Of course, it's not a high end product and the quality of the used parts is typical Behringer, but it does the job excellent! You won't regret buying it!

Best "bang for the buck" in this category!

It does the job well!

Whether you're on a budget or not, you have to be careful to invest well in your music equipment. I would rather invest more in an effects unit then in a midi controller that will be kicked around on stage! Stages can get quite busy...especially if space is limited. This pedal works well and does its job...and seriously...it's not expensive compared to others. So far it has done it's job well. I'm using it with Rack Eleven and it connects pretty well. I would suggest, however, to first research on it on the internet before purchasing the pedal. Some sites can give you some ideas of how best to use this pedal. It is built quite well too so I can't complain.

Great with Avid Eleven Rack

Have been using it with an Avid Eleven Rack Unit, and could not complain.

It was actually very plug & play, did not have to configure anything.

I'm not doing very sophisticated stuff with it, mere switching between different channels, muting and turning on the tuner, but it does that absolutely perfect.

No reason to complain, and no reason to buy anything more expensive :)

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.

easy to set up and rugged

i got this controller to use with tc g major 2 and i was dreading setting it all up as midi controllers can be notoriously difficult to set up well it only took 10 minutes after reading the manual, very straight forward to sync it in with what ever chosen FX processor you are using and was hassle free the expression pedals work great to and i found them easy to set up with g major 2 highly recommended if you don't fancy forking out for voodoo labs boards
