Thanks for all of the great feedback everybody.  This is such a great list 
to
be a part of.  I'm still not sure which way to go, though.  I have a few 
more
questions that may help me to make up my mind.

1.  On the FCB-1010, can I set up one bank to control all of the basic EDP
functions, another bank to control an MPX-200(including setting up a
tap-tempo), and another bank to switch presets on an Adrenalinn?  If I can 
do
all of this from one pedal with out having to power it down(reference to
David's problems with the FCB-1010), I think I might go with the 1010.

Thanks so much,
John
