FCB 1010 and Tubefex; Working out the kinks.   Message List

Re: [tubefex] FCB 1010 and Tubefex; Working out the kinks.

Don't call it chatter! You'll jinx those finicky motorpots! (Heh heh ... sorry)

Nick, thanks for the reply! I've not tried an FCB yet since I recently acquired a PFC-10. It sounds like the FCB1010 will do a thorough job of controlling the TubeFex though. I may need one in the near future.
 
On another note, it seems that not many people speak on this forum much any more. Maybe we can start some chatter. I love my tubefex. I have two of them. One is version 2.0 refurbed and upgraded at Peavey. The other is a version 1.2 that I plan to have Peavey refurbish/upgrade as well. These units are great.
 
Have a good one!

You would have to see if customer service had any parts to do that. If not, they could maybe bend it back into place enough to make it work ... even though it...

There's actually a v2.1 for the PFC-10 controller. It had something to do with the controller toggling P1 & P2 instead of just turning on/off the first one in...
