All user reviews for the Behringer FCB1010 Midi Foot Controller

Used for 3 weeks, I do not understand people who have difficulty s "... we must put a little stick thoriated twelve o'clock and voila ... in 1 hour while I was working on it. Apr s is on adpend devices connected to it ...

Note that it is important to the pdalier rebooted before use if certain functions such as prdales do not always work, the manipulation is simple and available on the Behringer site.

Assets:
He is really versatile and can do almost anything with a little savvy to grate the presets
-The change is almost instantaneous so progs ok c signals at noon and the latency of the items in pedals or switches are activated.
Its weight-consquent prevents it from moving on the ground even if a little slippery
He looks solid with no major design or default of ergonomics. For the price (140) it has no equivalent.
Cons:
-The pedals are a bit "easy" is not empty and have the feeling it but it is everything and we can paramtrer their race and turn everything down position.
-The cable supplied with the power supply is 10 times too short and nothing locks the cable to unplug the power supply which can be annoying with the singer on scne running around and vibration. ..
Similarly, on scne we must always seek the switches because it is not uncommon to operate the two times of the switches in the form of "ttons" as on more expensive MODELS t even have all the better.
-Documentation is spartan and lacks examples concrts that would save time ... That said once you go to the bottom of things and it's not worse forcment to understand the final product.

I will appreciate the possibility to use a Stereo jack splitter for the switching of channels rather than two mono cables made fewer Cables trainer.
Also note its size, not really a less, but disk storage / transport.

MODELS of more expensive better fucking have buttons but it is by far the best quality price time (spring 2004)

Hi everyone,

RUSI I finally set this thing thanks guys like toniodod, clarckkent4, sergiogibson of guitariste.com. It's really very difficult if you have the doc I behringer potash hours I did not understand. Also for your convenience I will not tell you not what to do to program it with a V-amp pro (I have only DSOL a): a zero is for MIDI like me. In fact I did not understand the principle.

----------------------------------------------

First and first we must choose the MIDI channel on which the v amp pro will match the support for this pdalier simultanment Arrows on 2 then A (you just turn on midi channels ) Here you choose a n 1 16 with the Arrows on the right (I chose 16) when you press select tuner. Ok you just said the v amp pro that he will talk to the pdalier on channel 16

------------------------------------------
GLOBAL CONFIGURATION

Now we have to say that FCB will discuss with the V amp pro on channel 16. I turn on the FCB while pressing DOWN (about 3 sec)

=> Select Direct lights (green lead) I press UP to move the utility (you can come back later)

=> MIDI FUNCTION flashes I press the pedals n1 (I just say that I program the FCB V AMP PRO on a program change)

=> MIDI FUNCTION is still flashing and the pedals by n1 cons I display (red leads) that included 01

=> I can confirm with pressing UP

=> I enter the channel when I selected the V AMP PRO (for me 16) then pressing the pedals on the pedals and a 6 j'appuis UP to confirm. (If you select a channel style 2 or 3 I think we should write 02 or 03)

=> And I leave the global configuration by pressing DOWN for 3 sec

--------------------------------------------

PRESET PROGRAMMING

Now we will select the sounds you want to select programming in the preset table SHEET V-AMPIRE / V-AMP 2 / V-AMP PRO REPRESENTATIVES all sounds dja programs in the v amp pro .

I take A2 (highway to hell), a small right-hand column (preset) is listed on n6

=> I stay on the bank 00 of FCB pedals I press the 1 (I put in the bank's A2 00 PDAL 1)

=> I press DOWN for 3 sec => UP => short blasts on the pedals a flashing (the I remind the FCB that the V AMP PRO I'll get the sound).

=> UP (I confirm)

=> I write in the digital display 06 (see the patch of APRS A2 corresponds to the table n6) with pedals pedals 0 then 6.

=> UP (I confirm)

=> I press DOWN for 3 seconds to exit the preset.

try another patch v amp pro a clean sound for example: A8 (DRY funk) n 12:36 ok?

=> I stay on the bank of 00 ETFs I press the pedals 6 (I put in the bank's A8 00 PDAL 6)

=> I press DOWN for 3 sec => UP => short blasts on the pedals a flashing (l I remind the FCB that the V AMP PRO I'll get the sound).

=> UP (I confirm)

=> I write in the digital display 36 (see the patch of APRS A8 corresponds to the table n36) with three pedals and the pedals 6.

=> UP (I confirm)

=> I press DOWN for 3 seconds to exit the preset.

Voil you just set your pdalier two sounds is more complete. Now I STUDY programming pedals and try to see what can be done with this machine

If you can not program the FCB and I've dgrossit thank you for the job leave me a msg was always happy.

friendly

HELLO EVERYONE!

I immediately find the hardware (behringer fcb 1010 ).... and I not pick up!
I have a hughes & kethner amp Attax 100 which has a 3 channel footswitch (crunch, distortion effects and loops), a multi effects tc electronics m300 and ze pdalier fcb 1010. Until now, to move from a clear, effective channel saturated void, must I press the 2 button footswitch on (1 to turn on the distortion and the other to cut the simultanment = effects loop, and while singing: p c practice!
So here I just want to control the multi and the amp with the same pdalier, but no way to do this;
the amp has a jack on the front of the amp for the footswitch that looks like a MIDI but not the same format. Any fawn, Mr. Behringer said that you go through jacks, and besides, you all talked about mono plugs and jacks Stereo: what is the difference? What should I do? And if you know my amp, my wish is it couraging?
thank you in advance.

I bought it originally to serve as a control of pdalier POD2 (Line6).
No problem with installation, operation and programming from a PC via MIDI.
Have a look on the Yahoo groups and search for 'FCB1010', you will find resources on programming INTERESTED pdalier this PC as well as presets ready to pilot a number of devices.
However, it is to look ncessaire srieusement doc on the FCB1010 programming and your MIDI devices DIFFERENT if you want full use of its possibilities and adapt your environment and how you play .
That's how I used to drive my POD2 Change presets as well as setting a preset mode given edition. But I also used to control the Cubase transport bar (Start, stop, rewind, record ,...) as well as my pedals associated MIDI master keyboard to control my MIDI soundfonts: soft pedal, sustain ...
By the way, I prcise it works wonderfully with POD2 including the Wah-Wah and volume, there is no latency supplmentaire intrinsque to the POD when changing presets .
I use it for 3 months.
It is rather strong and not too plastic end. The pedals are enjoyable dynamic.
Trs qualitprix good value.
I definitely recommend.
Bought ~ 180? in 09/2004 from Musik-Produktiv.

I used one and a half to control a first BASS POD PRO, BASS then the POD XT PRO version via MIDI only (I've never used the switches).
What I like most: it is robust and Fully parameter. It fits all MIDI devices. Dumper can be preset for a PC to the FCB1010 or vice versa.
What I like least: the expression pedals can not be assigned a MIDI channel per preset. DEFINITIONS they assign a single MIDI channel in the global configuration, which does not by a machine controller pedals. When only one, will have no worries.
Dtail that matters: the programming aspect. I do pigeais beginners to nothing, but I'm REALLY set and everything became clear. I was able to realize the possibilities of this unit standard.
I have tried any before acqurir MODEL. Its only competitor for the use I wanted to make the silent Line6 FBV Floorboard then. Compared the latter, the FCB1010 is much more robust, scalable and above all cheaper!
The report qualitprix is ​​excellent!!
I sold a few days ago with my BASS POD PRO XT, because I use it more. It's a good trs pdalier I recommend.
Finally: Behringer SAV hat, which costs you and sends you free days in the chip set case where you would not have the latest version of the software.

Purchased a month ago, I took the pedal to send program change MIDI instruments to four.

Unlike some, I find it very easy to use: you enter programming mode, it activates a pedal, we choose the control number, its value is all. To set one of my sets (4 prog change, a bank select), it takes less than a minute! Note that although it is possible to send a message via bank select both controls assignable patch, this control message is sent after the program changes, which may force them to call twice to access the patch good sound. An update is available on the Behringer website can still send the program change after 5 of the pedal controller 1.

In addition, for use as mine, I would have appreciated being able to send as many messages as bank select program change, to avoid having to consolidate all the sounds I need in one bank of each user synth .

The build quality is impeccable. As mentioned before, this pedal is heavy, sturdy and seems very reliable.

The two pedal modulation respond well, but I think their run a little short.

I put my 8 / 10 for the problem of bank select, but since the problem can be circumvented easily (in my case because one of my keyboard requires a similar message), I do not regret this purchase at all. This is a real plus for using live, and even in repetition, a little advanced MIDI configurations.

So it's a MIDI foot controller with 10 preset bank of 10, two expression pedal and two relays to control pedal or amp.

So I just saw a guy down that say that there is a lag time in Vienna to your amp or I do not know what control you because with my ada mp-1 and my marshall jfx no worries-1 latency it gives me the pod, however.

It is a rather robust bottom bracket, the price is honorable and the quality is good, I used that to change the preset in my preamp and my multi purpose and for what I do is seeing a task completed fully .

c I do it again without choice problem especially when I voi MIDI mate of my Rocktron colllegue scratch, hum hum .....

I use it mainly for a few months is to drive my POD XT or Toneport of Gearbox Software Line 6, or Ableton Live or Logic (transport bar to register).

Unbeatable value for money!

But above all I changed the EPROM to use alternative firmware Uno. The chip cost me 15 euros on the net and just for the Stompbox mode (which preserves the state of the preset / effects pedals assigned to stomp / mod / delay / RGB even if we change the preset or bank). .. is the day and night for the Line 6 POD.
Not to mention a tap tempo that really works.
In short, we can begin to compare it to the Line 6 pedal in terms of functionality and ergonomics (and given the price difference, there's no photo).
You end up with 19 banks of 5 presets + 5 stompbox assignable fixed instead of the 10 banks of 10 preset standard mode (still managed by the UNO, a global setting to enable or not the mode "stompbox").
Also note that the stompbox can operate in "temporary" effect is active until you release the pressure on the pedal. It can accommodate as well.

For MAC users: I just programmed with a dedicated editor Sysex
http://www.ripwerx.com/RipwerxFcb1010Editor.html
It can handle both the official firmware of the UNO Behringer. (For the PC there are two excellent graphics editors, see the yahoo group). CAUTION: provide two MIDI cables in and out to use software to read / write config / presets ... the FCB is delivered with a cable).

What is good in providing Behringer is that, despite the fact that in general they do not break the ass for their clients, they are nevertheless quite interesting commodity to third-party developers to do the job in their place (I've seen it with the viewer software for Mac on the BCF 2000).

All that to say that I rediscovered my FCB1010 for several days.

EDIT: To avoid disappointment, do not you start in changing the EPROM if you do not read English. (I say this to people who contact me by MP but I do not have too much temsp to help them out)
