Is this feature from PA4X available in PA3X?

Post by benny7284 »

Hi. Today I bought the Behringer FCB1010 Midi controller and Im looking for a way to configure the footswitch to activate the 'Synchro Start' and 'Synchro Stop' buttons. This feature is clearly available and written in the Korg PA4X manual (here: https://ibb.co/crCfDQq ) but on the PA3X is only mentioned in the EC5 assignable controllers menu in the keyboard itself that you can assign. So technically if you can do it with the EC5, you can probably do it with the Behringer but I can't find the Midi command for it. Any help..?

This is an old classic problem due to Korg not supplying the MIDI data.

If it's only listed as a PA3x EC5 option I doubt you will be able to configure it.
You could try the PA4x MIDI PC value and see if it works....

Now that the PA5x no longer supports an EC5, I have this issue with other functions like VAR-UP/VAR-DOWN.

Cheers

I did try this and it doesn't seem to work... That's a big bummer that it's only available for EC5. :( Still looking for a way but it seems impossible! Though I don't get it how it would be available for the EC5 and not for any MIDI controller (unless KORG really tried limit some features only for the EC5 just so that they can sell more units...)
