This is a modern take on an old school look for a MIDI controller... of course, it has a very welcome modern set of functions, going well beyond the original simple MIDI program changes. The price seems quite reasonable, too. Nice.
Only disappointment is there is no pc programming utility, but you can backup/restore via sysex so some smart guy could definitely make one, I might do this if I have time. With a decent pc utilty i think it could replace the FCB1010.
I bought the FCB 1010 and returned it because I couldn't set the msb lsb values I wanted. Maybe I needed some chip or update for the software to work but it didn't. I'm wondering if this may work
Hi. Is it possible to assign a different color for each Step? (Each of the 6 possible messages a Switch can send. So I can have visual feedback of which is the current one). Thanks beforehand
Can I program the following? LSB 000 MSB 085 Program 008? I'd like to choose performance sounds [favourites] in my JUNO-DS and it reads that in the imñlementation manual of the Juno ds
HI, Anyone know if the Nektar Pacer will control the Boss Rc 505, allowing for Rec/Stop/Overdub/start for each track? i.e. One foot switch per Boss Rc 505 Track (with complete control). Apparently the Boss FCB1010 can do this but only by connecting or replacing a chip inside the Boss Hardware. Whereas the Roland FC-300 can achieve it all straight out of the box, or so I have read in forums (relating to the RC-505).
Can I change all the switches to be toggle switches in Ableton? It says on the box 1 through 10 available switches to use. I wanted to be able to use all 10 in my mini mapping but it only allows me to do 6! What the heck why?
I just purchased one of these units for my Fractal Axe Fx III. Can you send me your midi/remote settings on your Fractal and the settings you use on your Pacer ? I am having a terrible time making the two communicate. Maybe do a video on program settings for both products.
Shoot an email to Justin Sullivan at NEKTAR and he will send the settings back to you. My Axe-FX III is now configured for an RJM Mastermind. support@nektartech.com

Really a great video. Are you still using this unit? Thanks again. 👏🏻
Looks like a boss gt-100.
hello,
thanks for this quick rundown ;)
Can you tell me if the Pacer will articulate well with Bias FX (or other apps) on iOS ??
thank you.
cheers
does it work with Guitar Rig 6? especially UP and DOWN for preset change

Joseph Douce , hi, do you think this is better to control the boss RC-505 than a Roland FC-300? Thanks in advance 🤗

It is possible.
Great review! Do you know if this would work with a Line 6 POD HD PRO X?

Can you use it without a DAW? i.e. Can you just trigger an external hardware drum machine or synth?
Yes and yes. DAW compatibility and facility is just one of its features. Otherwise it's a full-blown MIDI controller.
@@BrettKingman Awesome! Love your demos, I'm sub'd. Thanks!
That’s exactly what I’m looking to do👍🏼
Any good for boss katana??
I'm guessing it wouldn't control a zoom ms70cdr directly as you'd need a usb host?
Does it work with mainstage 3 ?
can i use it with my android phone?
Can i use it with FM3.?
can I use it with fl studio mobile?

If I can use wiresely it will be amazing but it’s impossible
