In my experience it is definitely unreliable: You program its switches
to send out certain MIDI events and find that they also send out other
random events! My experience with FCB1010 pedals is limited to only
three of them, each lasted for three years and all three had this
bizarre issue. Since it is random there is no way to protect your MIDI
gear except for setting up a mondoficious MIDI filter that stops every
event that is not to be listened to by anything in your rack/laptop.
But even this doesn't help when one switch leaks out an event that is
supposed to be sent by another switch and thus assigned to some
function. My guess is that this bug is what also Daniel describes in
hist post. After nine years I had enough and bought a Gordious.
