RE: FCB1010 - Can it control both my EDP and my efx unit?

Title: Meddelande

Hi Steve,

 

You can set the EDP to be controlled by note numbers, which can be sent from the FCB1010. Then you have all midi cc msg for your Studio 400, also sent from the FCB1010. Then I don't think you will run into any problems.

 

I'm using a FCB1010 here to control an EDP by note numbers, a Repeater by pr change and cc and finally a filter bank by only cc (on the same midi channel as the EDP note numbers, only to use the foot buttons more efficiently). Sometimes the FCB sends out cc although I have programmed it to only send note note on msg but I have signed the "faulty foot pads" to filters that doesn't damage the music by being turned back or on randomly in the background. But you should stay perfectly clear from this problem by running your two devices on different midi channels.

Best wishes

Subject: FCB1010 - Can it control both my EDP and my efx unit?

Hi loopers,

First, a BIG Thanks to everyone on this list, for making it one of the most intreresting and consistently informative of any forum I've ever been a part of.  My only complaint is that, at about 30 - 40 posts PER DAY, it's hard to keep up with it!  But I'm trying . .

Anyway, I'm thinking aboput getting the FCB1010 to control my EDP.   Does anyone know if I can set up a bank on the 1010 to also control my digitech efx unit?  I seem to recall from a previous post that using the 1010 to control multiple units is unreliable because of the way the unit is designed.

Most of the parameters of the  digitech (Studio 400)  respond only to midi cc's.   My plan is to (hopefully) assign the tap tempo function to one of the pedals on the 1010, and use another pedal/switch for general program switching ( i.e. from delay to chorus). 
Thanks for any help.

Thanks
SteveK
