It does not, it only lights up the midi button but no controls(when i asign) nothing lights up.File types | Find file converter | Software | Articles | FAQs | Privacy policy | About us | RSS Try it and you should see the result in the MIDI monitor. MIDI Program Change messages go from 1-128 ( or 0-127), so you switch banks on the FC to get to other Program Change numbers. If I remember correctly, the FC50 has 5 pedals which do 1-5 and 6-10, and then switches to select different banks Maybe i am going about this the wrong way or missing a setting in ms. Sorry, I have been on this 3 weeks now and am beginnign to lose hope, I thought it would be simple enough but obviously mainstage is not seeing any "notes" from th epedal (like no notes here Also I would like to use this pedal for MORE than just patch changes (ie to activate effects, mute channels etc) is this not possible? It does not, it only lights up the midi button but no controls(when i asign) nothing lights up. It sends a midi message but nothing more. I have and it does (sample) btw, when you say MIDI PG message, what do you mean? does it mean program change message?Ĭan you elaborate please? what is a pedal bank exactly? what am i looking for, I am on bank 1 but any bank I chose does not work. Ive followed your instructions but breaking it down, it goes something like this. Ive got the midi out of the pedal into the midi in of the pro fire 610 It seems i cannot control anything (not even patch changes) I dont know why. I have been trying to no avail to get the FC50 working with MS. Press some of the pedals on the FC and MS should change patches. I don't even seem to be able to do a patch change using the midi cable on MIDI.Ī) Check that the FC is transmitting MIDI PG messages using MS's MIDI message monitor (in the Window menu).ī) Make sure that each Patch in MS is assigned to a separate MIDI PG number: you can do this in one go by selecting all the Patches and using the Action (gear Menu in the Patch List:Reset Program numbersĬ) Make sure that the FC is working on the correct pedal bank using the buttons on the FC.ĭ Make sure that MS is listening to the FC PG messages by selecting the Concert (top of the Patch List) and checking that the Concert Settings for Program Changes are Device "All" and Channel 1-16 The generated MIDI CC messages come from the FC50 MIDI Out into MS. They are Inputs for additional footswitches/pedals such as the Roland FS 5 or FS 6 and the EV5. So if i understand this correctly, If I want to use the FC-50 to say, mute a channel or an effect on a Mainstage channel strip (on/off) which is what I am trying to do, I need MIDI CC messages and not MIDI Program Change ? so I cannot do that simply using the midi cable, I need to use the CTL outputs on the FC50? Also the MIDI IN window on the top of the screen, every press of the foot switch does not show a note (like B#, C D# etc) just numbers.Īny help on how to make Mainstage speak to the Boss FC-50 would be appreciated! In the Screen Control Inspector (side Bar) of the Layout mode, My hardware Input setup is as follows, though I have tried many different combinations to no avail. In other words, the layout buttons and footswitches do not respond when I assign any of them to the pedal (nothing happens, they don't light up, don't assign no connection between the two).
