Hi Rich, So far, I've used the FCB1010 with Ableton Live to record and play back loops, and the expression pedals to change some continuous controls. Live has a MIDI Map mode (press the MIDI button on the upper right hand corner). You can then select anything that's highlighted, and then press the appropriate pedal on your FCB1010 (or swing an expression pedal its full travel), and Live will "learn" that you want that pedal to control that item. I use MIDI notes to record on multiple tracks, to play back and/or restart those recordings, and to play various samples. One frustrating thing: Live doesn't allow MIDI control of it's track pitch parameter. :( Seems like an oversight... Hope they fix it sometime soon. I have to say that this combo, combined with 2 EDPs, makes for an amazing rhythmic combo... and can also create beautiful, ever changing ambient loops. Yes, you can use the FCB1010, or other MIDI controllers, to control an EDP. There's a lot on that topic in the archives, on the Looper's Delight website, and in the EDP manual.
