Luis, Thank you for this idea. Unfortunatly the PCM-10 is very hard to find in second-hand in France, and even in forums, very little writings : http://fr.audiofanzine.com/pedalier-midi/digitech/PMC-10/ I've studied about all the midi foot controlers available here (in second-hand) and my choose were about the FCB1010 / midimate / MFC10 I've not choose the midimate because this problems, and not choose the FCB1010 which were too large for a "peaceful family atmosphere" (not sure we can write this in English), I've better choose the smaller one YAMAHA MFC10. Have pay 130€ for it last week (second hand but a quite new product, full with power and manual), and very happy about it ! It works perfectly, VERY easy to program, 4PC or 4CC or 4 notes simultaneous, other midi messages (note, start/stop song, tempo...). It takes me few seconds for each switch to program my looper, there is 1 expression pedal, and I can plug 4 other, perfect for my 5 track looper ! I have programmed yet : o Mute / unmute of all the 5 tracks + entry track o Solo of all the 5 tracks + entry track o play / stop / record / overdub / new loop / ext Sync / octave ... o volume of each of the 5 tracks + entry track with the internal expression pedal (receive 1 external tomorrow, will test 2 tracks at same time) o pan of 4 tracks + entry (L/R) o dry / wet (L/R) of all tracks... o chorus / verse... ... No limit for somebody comfortable with midi. So easy to enter in the foot controller. All that works perfectly Not noticed latency yet (how to perform a latency test? my leg is not as fast as 70 ms) :) only one limit : it send (on one clic switch) 4 CC OR 4 PC, not 4 CC AND 4 PC, but with my looper it doesn't make problem for now.
