Dead MIDI Controller

[Rand-O-Monium]

My beloved ART X-15 just crapped out...


Hoping it's just the internal battery,but who knows?

Anyone got any experience w/ these?

Re: Dead MIDI Controller

I am astonished it lasted this long. The X15 was pretty bad as a controller, so anything you get now works so much better.

Bump-O...

Yeah,I've had a few over the years,they seem to last me relatively OK(3-5 years-ish)...
Just seem to prefer them,I guess,esp w/my finances(used/pawnshops,etc)...

Anyone else?

Re: Dead MIDI Controller

I'd say replace it with an inexpensive used Behringer FCB1010. It can do so much more than just change patches. I hated the way the x15s expression pedals step through the values instead of gliding smoothly.

Re: Dead MIDI Controller

It is probably the only Behringer product I'd recommend. You can even replace the chip inside to get it to do all sorts of things.
