Expensive? What are you talking about? It's a steal compared to the outrageous cost of a Mastermind controller and it does far more than the MFC. Besides, no one is forcing you to buy one as you can use any MIDI controller you want. $700 is a great deal to me. Your mileage obviously varies.Why is the FC-12 going to be so expensive? It appears to be approximately the same price as the earlier MFC unit but with less than half as many switches, which would perhaps indicate more menus? Regardless of the improved connector, it is still basically a switching matrix right? For three or four hundred dollars more, one could buy the AX8 that actually has amp models and effects on board plus many switches. I don't understand. Please explain.
Thanks

You can’t do multiple displays, color changes and layers with a switching matrix.Regardless of the improved connector, it is still basically a switching matrix right?
Last I saw posted was "October"...Hey guys , I’ve been out of the loop for a while now - with work. It just occurred to me that quite a bit of time has passed since the waitlist started. ( at least it seems it to me ).
Aside from SOON , is there any projected estimate for when FCs will start selling - yet ?
Just curious. Loving my III. Looking forward to using the FC in the (hopefully) near future.
Hard to believe Def Leppard is using the III now , and neither of us is using a foot switch by now.......
There's always a chance... But not very likely.Any chance these will come with a padded shoulder bag? If not, recommendations?
Not sure how anyone could recommend anything with them not being available yet.
To be added to the FC Series Controllers Wait List,
please email waitlist@fractalaudio.com with the subject "Wait List Request - FC".
If you specifically want either the FC-6 OR the FC-12, or want more than one,
please include this in the body of your email so we can consider these details.
For EU customers, please send the mail to waitlist@g66.eu. or use the button on the Axe-Fx III presentation page
Since I am blind here, with no official updates at all, I have to start considering alternative options. This one sounds interesting. I will research about it. Thanks!Currently using FAMC Liquid Foot JR+, with two BE-2 Button Expander for my Fx3. Among four expression jacks,two are connected with volume and wah respectively,and remaining two are for two BE-2. One for bank up/down,the other for preset up/down. All eight buttons are functioning scene's. You may find PAGE concepts that were introduced by FAMC,for JR+model 60 pages. In my humble opinion, FC's are going to resemble the page concept,which scheme allows all tasks and functions carried via MFC be executed with only 6 or 12 buttons. Any one out there using Liquid Foot controllers on Fx3?....

Hey Rob, I've been using the RJM Mastermind GT, and have to say it is a powerful and capable controller. They have been steadily working on it for interaction with the Axe FX III. I'm still on the FC wait list, but have been happily gigging my III with the MMGT/22 for months without issue. It's a really nice foot controller.Since I am blind here, with no official updates at all, I have to start considering alternative options. This one sounds interesting. I will research about it.
