sorry for cross post .... i'm using the 1010 to control pretty much everything you can on the repeater via midi. it took a long time to program. if you're lucky, you got one with the new rom that allows preset copying. in any case, if you're using the repeater midi implementation sheet to program cc's, you should also see the pc messages listed there. i'm using a lot of pc messages to control the repeater, but i had to discover by trial and error that i needed to use the repeater's listed pc value +1 when i programed the 1010, with the exception of Record (pc 4 i think), which worked as listed. you'll need to be patient (or more patient), verify that the midi channel assignments on both ends are the same, and try things one at a time. i would recommend getting the repeater working with the 1010 first before trying to integrate the other unit. you can only send 2 cc messages per preset with the 1010, so if you need to send cc's to your other unit, you'll need to assign a different midi channel to one of the 2 CC 'slots' in the global config and send only one cc to each unit, because the midi channel assignments for each message are global. if you just want to send pc messages to the other unit, dedicate one of the 5 pc 'slots' to this and change it's global midi assignment. same with the pedals. if you haven't downloaded the updated manual from electrix, i recommend going to their home page and doing so. you may have the newer manual in paper already, but it wouldn't hurt to check. i don't know if electrix has had any opportunity to reedit the midi message charts, but they seriously need to. fwiw, after i setup things properly, it's been working just fine. good luck, mike -----Original Message----- From: Joe Dallarda [mailto:jdallar@hotmail.com] Sent: Friday, June 21, 2002 1:26 AM To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com Subject: Repeater & FCB1010 Woes I'm hoping someone can help me with controlling repeater with the behringer fcb1010 before i totally lose it. One of the main confusions is this- without me programming anything on preset #2, the pedals on preset 2 can scroll through track select 1-4, engage play, record, overdub, stop, mute track 1, mute track 2, and mute input, which is a hell of a lot better set-up than i've managed to program myself as of yet. But this is (part of)what i'm not getting- I thought the fcb1010 can only send 2 CC messages per preset, and that repeater only responds to cc messages, and not program change messages. If so, how can this many different functions be accessed? Is this not correct? Does controller message also mean program change message, of which the fcb1010 can send 5? Also, I just don't understand how the global edit mode affects the preset edit mode- do you have to specify what kind of midi function you want to assign to each pedal in the global edit mode separetly for each pedal? The damn manual is even worse than a roland manual, minus the strange syntax. One last question- is there a painless and not too time consuming way to suggest how i might go about programming the fcb1010 to access as much of the repeaters front panel as possible, send a program change and continuess controller messages to an aleises midiverb (for changing vocal presets and controlling the amount of delay for vocals in real-time) and a program change and gain boost message (for loud sections of any particular song), to a pod, while having the repeater and a filter factory and mo-fx midi-synced to a roland 880 hard disk recorder without the mo-fx and filter factory recieving any kind of midi messages aside from being midi synced? (take breath). I know this is asking a lot, thanks, j. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.
