Re: EFC-7 vs. FCB-1010

[Scott Martin <coirbidh_99@yahoo.com>]

I have both an EFC-7 and an FCB-1010 in my setup.  The
FCB-1010 used to control my Repeater, and I was quite
happy with that, but when I bought my EDP I made sure
to get an EFC-7 as well, for 2 reasons:

1. The FCB-1010 also controls my Genesis3 preamp, and
having a dedicated footpedal for the EDP (or at least
the basic functions) means less bank switching during
performance.  I'm not ruling out using the FCB-1010
later to access deeper EDP functions, but I want to
thoroughly familiarize myself with the basic functions
first.

2. If you're using the LoopIV software, you can't
really utilize the new SUS functions, which are in
operation only as long as the button is held down (the
FCB doesn't support sustained presses).  If anyone
else has found a workaround for this (Cara, maybe?),
I'd be curious to find out how.

Just my $0.02...

Later,
Scott
