Korg PA 600 and Behringer FCB1010

Post by Mica »

Hi Everybody.
I'm pretty new to MIDI Controllers.
Recently purchased fcb1010 and was wondering if it can be programed to control Korg PA600 Start/Stop, Fill, Var1-4 etc.

Please respond if you have any solution for it,
Thanks
Mike

Yes, you can program for any midi messages supported by Korg Pa600.
Best way to program is using software PC Editor for the FCB1010

Hi Mica:
I am going to buy me a fcb1010. Haven't gotten around to it yet.
Got me a 13.3" tablet first to display the sheet music so I can see what I am playing.
I would really appreciate it if you could let me know how you program this
midi controller to control these functions, and let me know if it is easy or hard. Since you are new to this it would be a perfect evaluation.
Your help is greatly appreciate it.

FCB1010 is midi controller with huge possibility.
Is to much to write all at once.
I can answer question, but is hard to write all what FCB1010 can do . :wink:

Hi Snorkum,

You were right. Since I did not get much help from people on this forum, I had to do it my self.
I leaned how to program FCB1010 both ways, using a computer and by "Riverdancing"( pressing board switches) :wink: .
What I needed and did was controlling following 10 commands on PA600,,usind 10 FCB1010 pedals:
Intro1,2and3,Var1,2,3,and4,Break,End1,and Start/Stop.
Same way you can control every command on PA600.
FCB1010 has 10 banks x10 Pre-sets. 100 in total.
Did not work on Volume and Expression pedals ,yet.
I'm using PA600 Volume jack with original Volume pedal....

Nemik:

I assume that would be the same for the PA900?
I would appreciate that. It certainly would make my life a little easier.
Thank you very much for your help with this.

Mica:

These are pretty much the same functions I would like to control with my foot instead of my hand. Did you find it to be user friendly or cumbersome?

Please turn on Caption (CC).
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/2hOSKV0eT90" frameborder="0"></iframe>

I made small mistake :oops:
CC# for volume channel is 7 not 12.
Caption is corrected, just hate to record again video . :wink:

Hi Snorkum, I find it user friendly.

And Nemik just posted this very nicely made video about setting it up for
PA 600.
Other PA Keyboards have slightly different commands.

Watch his video and consult your keyboard user manual together with FCB1010 manuals , and you will figure it out.

Great, Mica. Thanks for your comment.
And thank you, Nemik, very much for your video on the FCB1010.
I will go ahead and order mine tomorrow, and hopefully receive it
next week sometime.

It's been a while since I've used it, but it's a lovely pedal. I don't think I've seen anything as flexible for the price and size.
