Korg Pa5x Tutorial: programming the FCB1010 foot controller

[⚖Robinez]

The Behringer foot controller FCB1010 is a great addon to your pa5x, but it needs configuration before it works. This explains how to do it:

   

Korg Pa5X setup
In the Pa5X midi settings:
- midi channel in subtab
- set CH 01: Control
- set CH 02: Global
- save the midi settings as a new default with the name FCB1010


Now program the FCB1010 (you only have to do this once), the most easy way to do it is to download the editor and connect your foot controller to your pc and then enter the numbers below.

FCB1010 setup
Here is what you can enter in the FCB1010:
button 01: Variation 1 -> program change 84
button 02: Variation 2 -> program change 85
button 03: Variation 3 -> program change 86
button 04: Variation 4 -> program change 87
button 05: Break -> program change 92
button 06: Keyboard set 1 -> program change 65
button 07: Keyboard set 2 -> program change 66
button 08: Keyboard set 3 -> program change 67
button 09: Keyboard set 4 -> program change 68
button 10: Ending 1 -> program change 93
Expression pedal A: Filter cutoff -> Control change 74 (on midi channel 2)
Expression pedal B: Expression -> Control change 11 (on midi channel 2)

And if you don't want to program it, you can download the SYSEX file for this software that I created, just import it in the software editor and send the sysex to your FCB1010 with that software, then everything is programmed for you. (unzip it and load the sysex file in the pc editor mentioned above)
