I also tried to get out, ever since I started this thread some three weeks ago, but now I too just got pulled back again. Yesterday Kid Beyond was here for two gigs and we met up at my place for comparing looping rigs and commit ourselves to associated nerdy activities. A button on my FCB1010 was dead and it just dawned on me that "My FCB really IS an Instrument"! A simple MIDI foot controller, but the way I use it is to transpose the pitch according to a scale and I can't really say that I'm improvising more melodies with my hand instruments than by transposing my caught audio with those foot pedals. Feet, hands and wind intonation has simply become parts of the same "looping instrument" (before I learned to play it I used to call it "my looping rig"). And then today I finally found a new FCB1010 in music store. It appears Andy was right; my MIDI Sysex files from the five years old pedal can not be read by this new one. Oh The Crap!!! Need to tap dance for many hours to set up the new pedal... or eventually I may download some XP software to edit it?
