I'm getting an FCB1010 this week and I'm wondering... It says it can transmit two CC messages at a time from each preset... Does this mean that one footswitch can be made to send two CC messages? If so, that means that the "pad on" and X axis value could be transmitted from one pedal, yes? And the Y axis can be one of the expression pedals?

So for the KPro, you could get notes and the KP3, you could get specific pad points... If I'm understanding CC messages correctly anyway.
If you send the X axis CC message with a value of 1, that will be the very left of the pad and one with a value of 127 will be the very right of the pad. Is this correct? If so, pedals can be set up with different values for the same CC messages and so making different notes. The 127 values of the X axis must be split up into as many notes as are in the currently used scale though, so 1 might be the root and 127 be the octave but then every 15/16 value points, the note will be different.

Can someone verify this for me? Or just tell me I'm way off? I don't understand MIDI well enough.

Also, is there any way of sending an "ALL STOP" and "ALL PLAY" message to start and stop the banks?

Hi there. hope somone sees this and reply...
I have the same problem that started this thread: pads on the fcb1010 with the correct note message control playback of sample buttons 1-4 but will not start recording. I didn't understand from the post what was the fix eventually.
Please help

When I was having that problem, it was caused by having an old version of firmware on the kp3. After updating and a hard reset everything worked fine.

Here is a video I made that might help people program.

Thanks Grizzle
Updated to v2.0 and the BCF now triggers bank a-d record and playback. Still have a problem with the expression pedals controlling the pad XY. Do I need to send a touch pad command before they can make an effect change?
Anyway thanks.

The video is back up. see if that helps.

Hey Grizzle.
I watched your video. Thanks for taking the time to make it. Although it didn't solve my problem, it really helped me to understand how the fcb (and MIDI in general) works.
Recalibrating the expression pedals did the trick so now it all works and I can take some time to play with the Kaoss. Being a wind intruments player I really can't enjoy it without foot control. Playing time....
Thanks
