FCB1010 - hmmm

  • Hello,


    Well I just waited 3 weeks for the Uno 4 Kemper to go with my FCB1010.


    I have been hanging to use this.
    Well! what a real disappointment.
    I calibrated the Volume pedal twice or 3 times, still has a really poor range of movement,IMO.
    On zero it goes to the tuner and I have to move the pedal quite a bit to get it off.
    That really doesn't leave much range at all.
    While playing if you go back to far the tuner comes on.


    So I think I will disable the tuner to avoid this while playing.
    I have been playing with the Volume range in the Kemper.
    Many years ago, when I was using a GT8, I use to have it set like this, heal 60% toe 100%, which worked really well for Rhythm and lead.


    Is this range of movment normal for the FCB1010, or do I need to change something?


    Any help apprenticed.


    One more thing, I see only a hand full of rigs with Midi #, so do I have to give them all a number if I want to use them?


    I can see a lot of work in this.


    Cheers,


    Gezza.


  • The FCB pedals have a shorter range than, let's say, a Boss FV500.
    But are you aware you can change the volume curve applied to the movement of the pedal ( from linear to logarithmic settings)?
    Still you can do the 60% to 100% thing playing with the volume range.
    You'll lose the tuner at heel position then of course.



    It's time to make yourself familiar with performance mode. ;)

  • Let's not dance around it, the FCB expression pedals suck.
    They do the job, but feel horrible
    I would set up a profile with a pure boost or a 2nd profile with a volume boost before working the fcb expression

  • Just got the Behringer 1010 with EurekaProm 2 chip. Very happy with its performance, pedals and all.


    For a good feeling/sounding cry baby, set up Wah in Stomp 1 with these settings. :thumbup:


    Manual 3.4


    Peak 7.5


    Pedal Range 31%


    Peak Range -43 %

  • Hello All,


    Thanks cranyrayhany, yes I agree. Good not great.


    After hours of playing, I came to the same conclusion, leave the pedal alone and use presets for solo and boosts.


    I did just that, I set all my effects and have 2 boosts on the X and Mod.


    Cheers,


    Gezza.

  • Hey Guys,


    Just hoping if someone can share compressor settings.


    I have found a few.


    But hoping for some like the Cry Baby settings.


    If you have some please let me know.


    Cheers,


    Gezza.
