From Our Research Team:A Foot-controlled MIDI Command CenterThe Roland FC-300 MIDI foot controller gives you the power and flexibilty to control any performanced-based MIDI instrument or device with ease, onstage or in the studio. The FC-300 features two assignable expression pedals, two control pedals, nine footswitches and even more expandability, and can store up to 100 MIDI setups. Live performers will benefit from the unit's two Amp Control switches, which control amps and effects. A three-way power supply (AA batteries, AC adapter, or via RRC2) and rugged construction ensure roadworthy dependability from the Roland FC-300.Roland FC-300 MIDI Foot Controller at a Glance:
Control and Expression The FC-300 is outfitted with nine industrial-grade footswitches and two programmable expression pedals for fast, easy control and expanded performance capabilities. The backlit LCD offers a high-contrast view of patch names (when used with VG-99) and other important data, even in the darkest stage environments. Power Patches Up to 100 sets of MIDI messages/parameters can be stored simultaneously in the FC-300 as patches. Complex MIDI transmission is made simple, thanks to the FC-300’s ability to package chunks of data together in a single patch and transmit each data-burst via footswitch. Advanced Connectivity Using commercially available LAN (Ethernet, Cat 5e) cable and the newly adopted RRC2 protocol, the FC-300 provides both bidirectional MIDI transmission and electrical power supply with one simple connection between VG-99 and FC-300. Programmable Switching Two multipurpose switch jacks are built into the FC-300. These programmable outputs are an ideal feature for guitarists, as they allow amp channels to be switched from clean to lead, for example, in sync with patch changes on the FC-300.

by Mike Harvey from New Orleans, LA
I've been using this lately as live control for Apple Mainstage 2. The rest of my rig includes a Motu Traveller, Akai MPD-32 controller, Tech 21 Power Engine 60, and 3 Sennheiser ew100 G2 wireless sy... read more [+]stems for acoustic fiddle, electric fiddle, and whichever guitar I bring - Strat, LP or Godin. As with all of the Boss pedals I sold to move over to this setup, Roland gear is built solid. With Mainstage, I've found numerous uses for 2 expression pedals onboard. It fits like a glove, alone in a cheap Roadrunner pedal bag - easy setup, just power and Midi through loom tubing back to a custom box I built for the Motu, Akai, MacBook Pro, and a power strip that sits on top the Tech 21 like an amp head. With Mainstage, just plug in the board to a Midi in, press the mode button once to change to "Control" and you're DONE! Requires NO PROGRAMMING, other than doing "learn" for each of the footswitches, for the first time you set up your layout in Mainstage. With this pedal and the other components, I now have a simple, compact rig that does EVERYTHING! Only improvement would be if it allowed Mainstage to send Midi back to it, so upon Patch Changes, the lights for effects that are on or bypassed would switch to match the new patch. From my research, it seems that none of the current controllers from other companies have this feature either. Right now, I set the buttons to "Absolute" mode in Mainstage, so On is lighted, and Off is Off. Upon patch change, I quickly switch a few pedals to match the pedal state on the screen before starting the song, to avoid my own confusion - the patch will still sound right regardless. close [-]

Carson McClainI currently use this to control Ableton Live and Apple Mainstage during my live performances. Pedal #2 moves down from backing track to backing track and the patch pedals switch entire scenes of synths, guitar rigs and vocal FX inside of mainstage. This is truly a limitless tool for the creative musician. Also popular
