I like the MFC a lot. It's the best choice - in Axe-Fx Mode - for "plug-and-play" control of the Axe-Fx. And the Kicktags are the finishing touch.
But I'm a MIDI controller junkie, always have been, and sometimes crave for more control and possibilities. So I got me a RJM Mastermind GT/22. A monster controller, expensive too. The one with the displays above the 22 buttons.
Received it today and programmed it. Takes more time than a MFC, but the result is fantastic. Everything is so easily accessible now, through single clicks, double clicks, holding buttons, pages etc. Looks very pro.
Some things I particularly like:
- Save/Restore with an USB flash drive
- Preset Number: press digits to recall a preset
- holding buttons to switch X/Y, or to switch between two effects speeds
And great support for the Axe-Fx out of the box.
Also, RJM offers great and immediate support through mail and forum too. A reason why I chose RJM and not Liquid-Foot.
