After completing this tutorial, you will have three new
presets on your Behringer FCB1010 pedal:
Preset 1 recalls Scene 2 on your StudioLive.
•
Preset 3 recalls "F20: High Ceilings" on FXA on your StudioLive.
•
Preset 6 allows you to control the Main bus assignment for FXA
•
(effectively muting and unmuting the effect in the Mains) from
Pedal 6 on your FCB1010. You also can control the Main output
volume for your StudioLive using Expression Pedal A.
To begin, you must first set up your StudioLive to be remotely controlled by
your footpedal. In this example, we are setting up the StudioLive to receive
Scene changes on MIDI Channel 1, FXA preset changes on MIDI Channel 2,
and FXB preset changes on MIDI Channel 3. In general, you should set up your
StudioLive so that each library (Scene, FXA, FXB) receives Program Change
messages on its own MIDI channel. The danger of having, for example, Scene
recall and FXA preset recall on the same MIDI channel is that when you change
to Scene 3, you will change the FXA preset to F3: Closet at the same time!
For our example, we also have the output levels and FXA/FXB Assign to Mains on
their own MIDI channels (Channel 4). For your setup, it is perfectly fine to have
these controls share a MIDI channel with one of the recall groups. As previously
mentioned, these parameters are controlled using Control Change messages,
not Program Change messages, so there is no chance of a conflict—unless
you assign the same CC message to two different StudioLive parameters.
In addition to setting your MIDI Channels and Control Change messages,
you will also need to set MIDI Control Mode to On and make sure the MIDI
Source is set to the StudioLive's MIDI Input. Section 7.5.8 will show you
how to control your StudioLive via FireWire using Studio One Artist.
Navigate to Pages 4 and 5 of your StudioLive system menu
and set each page up as shown in these images:
Next, you need to configure the pedals on your FCB 1010 to send information
on different MIDI channels. We will use Pedal 1 exclusively for Scene changes,
Pedals 2 and 3 for FXA recall, and Pedals 4 and 5 for FXB recall. You can customize
your pedal to meet your needs; these instructions merely provide a guideline.
