FCB1010 controller pedal question
Hi All,
I am using a controller pedal on an FCB1010 midi floorboard to control crossfading in LIve 4 and the response seems sluggish - the initial pedal movement generates no change in the crossfade, so I only have a small amount of pedal travel time that actually works - it is kinda off then suddenly on. I have my controller values set to 0 - 127.
Am not so savvy with midi controller messages, so any help greatly appreciated.
Thankx,
Chris

sounds like you need to calibrate your fcb... copy/paste from loopers delight (which was copied from the fcb yahoo group;) )
---------------------------------------------------
1. Keep footswitches 1 and 3 pressed while switching on the unit (This bit
you can't do standing up!). Release the switches when the display blanks. The LEDs on the footswitches, the ones on the display and each segment of the two numeric displays will turn on and off in sequence.
2. Wait until all footswitch LEDs are on. Depress all footswitches one at a
time,
including UP and DOWN, until all LEDs are off.
3. Wait until relay switch test is finished. (There will be a couple of
mechanical
clicks, and the display will end up reading "F1" (at least, it did on
mine)). [Also, if you have connected a MIDI cable between the MIDI in and out, the display will show "A1" before this, meaning the midi ports work correctly.]
4. Press DOWN once.
5. Adjust the left expression pedal (A) to the lowest value. Once adjusted
press UP.
6. Adjust the left expression pedal (A) to the highest value. Once adjusted
press UP.
7. Adjust the right expression pedal (B) to the lowest value. Once adjusted
press UP.
8. Adjust the right expression pedal (B) to the highest value. Once
adjusted
press UP.
9. Select a patch which has both pedals set to their full range, and check
the expression pedals now send 0-127 (0x00-0x7F)
