Behringer FCB1010 Manual page 3

Dear BEHRINGER users, Page 3 of 10
I got the Behringer FCB yesterday. It is full metal, the switches look quite sturdy, and the controller pedals also make a good impression, they move very
smooth and even.
Right out of the box it basically worked with the CT, you can change patches inside the players lounge and control the master volume of the CT without
any programming. The volume pedal uses the complete range and works very accurately.
For the second controller pedal: The default for the second assignable continuous controller on the CT is 11, so unless you change these settings on the
CT, it expects controller #11 as input. The Behringer by default has controller #14 defined for the second controller pedal. So I just went through the
settings of the Berhinger and modified the controller number from 14 to 11. It worked instantly, I can now use the second controller pedal for the
assignable controller on the CT. You could achieve the same by changing the CT settings, I just thought it makes more sense changing the pedal settings.
For the tuner: You can select the tuner by selecting patch number 127 on the CT. You just don't get any indication (sharp/flat) on the Behringer, you have
to watch the CT display for that. But you can activate the tuner from the Behringer, which is fine enough for me.
You just need to make sure that for each FCB1010 Preset, you have a CNT1 enabled and sending out CC # 32 with a value of 0. This will make
sure that the CT will change to Bank 0, which is the MIDI Map and probably what you are used to - let me know if you need more details on how
to do that on the FCB1010...
What the manual addendum is saying is this. Instead of having a one button used to turn effects on and another seperate button to turn effects off, you can
have a single button programmed to alternate the midi message it sends out. So one press of the button would send the Effect ON message and the next
press of the same button would send the Effect OFF message...
Your is fairly new (Mine is too) and it MAY have this feature. I got my FCB1010 in December and it does NOT have this feature built in...
The other feature it talks about there would allow you to copy a preset from one button to another. So instead of having to build an effect on/off button for
EVERY bank, you make a preset in bank 0 and copy it to all the other banks.
Both of those features are very convenient, and I would love to get hold of the ROM upgrade to make them work on mine. I am in touch with Behringer
ASAP to find out how I can get it.
NOTE: in order to use these extra features, you need the v2.1 ROM upgrade.
Copying Presets
Activate CONFIG in the GLOBAL SETUP (see chapter 2.2 of the manual). Now, press footswitch 5 to activate the copy function. (The VALUE 1
LED lights up and the number in the display starts flashing.) Enter the number of the preset you wish to copy and confirm your selection with
UP/ENTER. Presets 1 - 10 are stored in bank 0, presets 11 - 20 in bank 1, and so on. (The VALUE 2 LED lights up and the number in the display
starts flashing.) Enter the target preset and confirm your selection with UP/ENTER, or cancel with DOWN/ESCAPE. If you want to copy further
