I have ben happy with the midi mate. I could use more CC switches though. pretty good controller for around $100 used on ebay.

I like the idea of the FCB and the 11prom, the only thing is you can't name the patches like you can with the rocktrons and the GCP.

My band plays Classic Rock.I use the FCB with the 11Prom and find it well suited for our sets. Very flexible in the EFX mode and I've found the Favorite Program mode handy for special requests and jams in club gigs.

Has anyone an idea whether the Fractal MFC101 works with the 11R?
Anyone got any experience with this?

The MFC-101 will drive an Eleven Rack, although obviously Axe-FX specific features like the tuner display, RJ45 connections for the Axe-FX II etc. won't work with the Eleven Rack. You may also want to look over on the Fractal Forum or a the PDF manual on their web site.

Its a really nice looking controller, I've was close to purchasing one but ended up on a distraction with analog pedals. Hopefully one day Fractal will release the rumored/hoped for external editor for configuring the MFC-101.

I've been using my Line6 POD HD500 as a MIDI controller for the 11R with good results.

Pros:
- Easy set up
- Tap tempo works
- Tuner on/off (and thus mute/bypass) works
- Wah works (including turning it on and off with the toe switch)
- Turning individual effects on and off works
- The POD HD500 is itself a backup unit for the 11R
- Presets can be named (and not just numbered like in the Roland and Behringer units)
- Reasonably priced if compared with similar controllers considering it can also work as a backup

Cons:
- I miss having one more patch switch
- Can't access all the 11R presets, there are a few banks at the very end that can't be recalled from the HD500
- Can't send more than one CC message per switch

Sounds good. One question:
Can you simultaneously use it as a MIDI controller and effecs processor (for example use a few distortions or extra delays) with the eleven rack?

Yes, that's perfectly possible but you have to keep in mind that the POD HD will add an extra 2ms of latency to your tone. If you want to use it just for extra delays that wouldn't be a problem as you can control the dry/wet ratio on the FX loop of the 11R so the added latency would only apply to the wet (delayed) signal of the HD500 making it irrelevant. I honestly don't feel the need for going that route, but it's doable and quite easily I might add.
