    About to upgrade to III - best "expanded" footswitch layout?

    Hey all, I'm about to upgrade from my trusty Axe-fx II XL to the III. Having used the MFC-101 for a decade now, I'm wondering what the best option is for maximizing the amount of available controls at my feet with the FC-12. Two FC-12s feels like overkill. Has anyone ever paired the FC-12 with...

    Using MFC 101 with FM3 to select 8 individual scenes. 🎸

    Good day fellow fractal users, Ive been using the MFC-101 as an external midi switcher with the Fractal FM3. Currently running 5 presets, 10 effects on/off, scenes up and down. So far things are cool. But I would like to get direct access to the different scenes. So the mfc101 would be...

    Axe FX II MFC 101 scenes?

    Hey y’all! Im new to fractal audi equipment and recently acquired an axe fx II and MFC101 midi foot controller.

    Is mfc-101 mk2 not compatible with fx2?

    I initially tried to operate the fx2 with my old midi controller, but it doesn't seem to be compatible. I selected preset number 1, but there were problems such as going to number 640 or taking several seconds to switch presets. I'm trying to buy mfc101 because of that problem, but I see mk2 for...

    MFC-101 Jumping To Different Preset

    Hey Guys, I've got an odd one. When I land on preset X001 it always jumps to X383. This happens when I select it with a switch or if it lands on it when up or down. It doesn't do this on any other preset that I've found yet. I've reset the MFC and tried setting up anew preset in my AXE2-MK2

    MFC-101 no longer available?

    Hello, i just visited the Fractal Shop and the G66 Shop and in both the MFC is not available anymore. Is this because the new tariffs are hitting imports from china right now, or has this other reasons? I hope the MFC will soon be available again :)

    MFC-101

    Does the MFC 101 come with a connection cable? I just opened the box and there is just the adaptor with it. Was i supposed to order the cable separate? And if so what is the best cable to use? Not sure if they forgot to put in box.
