Short & sweet...... Just looking for some recommendations for a footswitch for the MPC X.
MPC X still not arrived yet, apparently the 18th of this month now.. :lol:

I use a Boss FS-6 Dual Footswitch for this...as the X offers 2 footswitch inputs...plus you can configure this one any way you want to. (latch- and momentary-type...tip : use a y-cable)

The Korg doesn't require a battery, power cable, etc. so I went with the more basic device.

Doesn't the Boss stay on all of the time unless you pull the batteries?

Battery is automatically shutoff when no cable is connected....so no drain...

Ended up purchasing the BOSS FS-7 Dual Footswitch Pedal.
Thank you for your recommendations definitely appreciated!
