This is a great tutorial thank you for posting it. For anyone asking, I'm using M-Audio UNO USB interface with Guitar Rig Pro 5 on a Macintosh OSX 10.7.3. I needed to calibrate my expression pedals even though I've had my midi pedal for years. If you find the settings don't go all the way to zero/min or don't go all the way to 100/max then you need to calibrate your expression pedals, instructions can be found online.

This has got to be the most helpful video I have ever seen on KZread! I have been trying to figure how to control Guitar Rig with my All Access. One minute of your video and I had it. Thank you for this video. Doing it this way blows the pants off of the NI controller.

Finally a clear concise run down of how to set up my external foot controller This is SUCH a time saver. Thank you so much!

Hey dude nice video i setup my keyboard to these presets. I would like to know if i can use *any guitar pedal to use as controller* . I have a digitech RP150 connect via usb. I click the "learn" button but when i press the pedal cant be recognised by programm. Is there any way?

Hi! I have the FCB1010 and Guitar Rig 5. Your video was a great help in assigning presets and component control to various pedals. The one I can't figure out is the Loop Machine RECORD button. I want to be able to lay down guitar loops, one at a time hands free with the FCB1010. Your thoughts?

Greets, how can I use 2 fcb1010 with just ONE midi input? I want to use both in my AXE Fx (only 1 midi input). One FCB for preset change and the other for pedal effects. DO I need a USB merger or something? I haven't found anything like this. Thank you in advance.

Thank you for taking your time to explain excellent video M8

Ohhh, I love that MIDI VST stuff. I just grabbed a used FCB1010 with UNO chip on the german eBay "small ads". BUT I am into VST/software edrumming and I think this will be a very nice toy to play with. Yeah! Now I suck in all he knowledge of programming that thing. Thank you!

what do we do if you hook it all up and pressing learn doesn't do anything.midi connections made to pc but made.

Connecting stock FCB1010 via MIDI to USB cable, using Bias fx. I don’t even think the computer is reading the 1010, in the usb tree, it lists that the “mio” cable is plugged in, but nothing about the 1010. Any thoughts?

do you by chance have a similar sysex file for amplitube? I would really appreciate.

Thanks for the info now I can use my midi keyboard sustain pedal to turn on and off fx in GR. Can't believe I never copped that you could do this before! :) Quick question do you mind letting me know if the Sonnus Wahoo can be configured to use the WAHs and Pitch pedals in GR5?

I purchased the FCB1010 (2.5.1E- no Uno) to control GR4. I'm connected with the MidiSport Uno USB. I can't get it to communicate with GR4 as a plug in Pro Tools 8. It's like it's not recognizing the FCB at all. I tried to program it using the FCB1010 editor then using the "learn" feature in GR4 with no luck. I have 2 other midi devices that work fine (Roland drums via MidiSport Uno 1 and M-Audio Oxygen via USB). I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

@EL34XYZ I'm having a problem with my FCB1010 where it wont turn off an effect. Take Cry Wah for example. I've added a new controller and clicked learn. It picks up the controller and i assign it to Cry Wah. On/Off. I hit the stomp on my foot controller, it turns Cry Wah on. If i hit it again - Nothing. Can you help at all? For some reason, if i assign the expression pedal to the on/off switch, it does switch it off and on like it should.

The Ed Dixon editor is what I used, but I'm not sure if I used it right. I got the CC controllers to work in the GR4 standalone, but not in Pro Tools. Also, the pedals only work, not the 1-10 buttons. I'm sure I'm missing something (or a lot).

Do you need the uno chip to use controller with computer. I tried this with amplitude and guitar rig and nothing happens but with vamp it works fine.

Thanks for all the great info. I'm using the Uno. The stomp boxes work fine, but I do not understand how to get the FCB1010 to tell GR to switch patches. I want each song (or song type) to have its own patch, and then each patch will have certain stompboxes, including their on/off state when I switch patches. Some songs may have multiple patches - e.g., "Beautiful Day" by U2 has a bunch of different effects chains...can I do this? This is what happens when a drummer thinks he can play guitar.

Can this or something roughly equivalent be done with a single FCB1010 without the UnO chip?

Jill Lawson I am not sure how Amplitude handles MIDI, but the default setup for the FCB1010 only sends PC messages. If it needs CC, you need to either edit the FCB locally (a little bit of a bastard) or download an editor. Just setup up 1 button on the FCB to send one CC and check before getting a patch together. The PC messages are for changing patches, the CC are for operating stuff in a patch.....generally! Your results may vary.

Hi El, great video!! I have a 2.2 firmware (April 2002) calibrated FCB 1010 and it doesn't learn anything…… it just change presets (even when i'm on "learning mode") and if i use the expression pedals it change them continuatively, having a continuous input…. so I need a UNO chip? It seems… Thanks in advance!!

Yes, you need the UNO chip and that will turn 5 of your foot switches into stomp box switches. The Stomp boxes switches can then turn effects on and off in GR and do other nifty things. If the expression pedals are working correctly, you should be able to learn those in GR. The 2 expression pedals work the same way with or without the UNO chip. You can turn knobs and sliders with the 2 expression pedals.

I only really want to select presets but my switches just pick the first 100 presets and not my user presets (which are in the 400's).

Do you need the UNO FW to set up toggle? I don't have the 'ALT' option in the Midi editor next to the CC values. Version 2.99-2

Hello friend. Can i save guitar rig presets inside this pedalboard? and then use them in my amp?

went u add a new controller if u see ur video at 0.56 u are doing click on learn and none its changing i cant see clear but i thing its changing at key 120 on so im doing the same way but went i click learn nothing change still none what do i have to do??? i hope u can understand what am talking abut

I've been reading all the comments here trying to troubleshoot. I have a stock FCB1010, and of course by default it's only selecting random presets in Guitar Rig 5. In GR5, I add a controller and click Learn, but GR5 doesn't recognize any commands from my FCB1010 except the expression pedals. I only want to assign an FCB1010 preset button to a specific GR5 preset, no stompbox or modifications to it. Is this possible or not? I set up the controller to trigger a particular preset, but again, it doesn't see input from the FCB1010 and then it starts selecting other random presets. I also tried your .syx file which didn't seem to do anything. Also, would the UNO chip remedy why GR5 doesn't see any input from my FCB1010? Thanks.

HI. HOW CAN I CONFIG A STEALTHPEDAL IN GUITAR RIG. THANKS.

Hi there. Whenever I hit pedals, it just changes presets all the time, even with learn on. Is there a certain mode the pedal needs to be in (configuration mode? Direct mode?). Sorry to ask, hope you can help.

Hi 1) Yes you need a USB to midi device (like a M-audio Uno) or a soundcard that has midi in and out (Like a M-Audio fast track ultra). Or a firewire card if that's what you use. 2) A stock fcb just has 10 pedals that only switch presets. Only the UNO chip can toggle effects and other things in Guitar rig. The Uno chip turns 5 of the preset pedals into stompbox pedals and you can control several things at once with one pedal. 3) I don't think cable length is an issue with decent cords.

I recently got a single stock FCB1010 to use with guitar rig. The footswitches work fine for changing the patches in Guitar Rig 5, but when I actually try to get GR to learn the footswitches (or expression pedals), nothing happens. Any ideas?

@EL34XYZ

10 жыл бұрын

The 1 to 10 footswitches can only change presets on a stock FCB1010. I have mentioned that several times in the comments section below. The expression pedals need to be calibrated before they can be used. The FCB1010 manual should have instructions on how to do that.

John Xoán They can only be used to switch between presets in Guitar Rig unless you buy and install the UnoChip. Look up FCB1010 UnoChip on eBay. It's like $10 and you can then use the footswitches to turn on and off reverb, distortion, whatever. You can assign them to any part of the program for on off.

No, the buttons on a stock FCB are for changing presets. They are not stomp box pedals. You need the UNO chip to be able to make 5 of the pedals become stomp box pedals

I might have to look into it. Sounds like exactly what's been holding me back. Just so you know, I never meant to question you...just to let you know that I have a stock FCB1010 and tell you that I get it to turn on and off stomp boxes...but as I said, it is inefficient since you have to double stomp. Even turning on the "Switch" mode doesn't really help, but it does allow you to use 2 pedals as stompboxes. Is the chip hard to install?

Th UNO chip turns 5 of the pedals into stomp box pedals. The stomp box pedals no longer change presets. In a stock FCB, the pedals change presets when you step on them. The easy way to have 5 stomp boxes is to buy an UNO chip

@EL34XYZ .....ah, good to know. I also noticed a guy commenting here mentioning his problems.....so the uno mod is pretty important?

I'm reading that these are even better then NI's own Rig Kontrol 3.....your thoughts on this? And this UNO chip, thing.....is it needed to be able do everything the RK3 can do?

@RobertCella I don't know much about the NI hardware FCB's are only $150 and are rock solid built Two expression pedals and 100 100 presets by switch banks

I have a Midisport also hooked up to my two FCB's in series. Did you go into guitar rig and activate the Midisport as your midi control device? You have to turn it on in guitar rig. If that is not the problem, you should download the Ed Dixon FCB editor from the web. It's way easier to program the FCB's with a GUI app than with the FCB pedals. Do a oogle search for Ed Dixon FCB 10 editor. It's free but only works on Windows. There is another editor out there that works on any platform via JAVA

@ROCKERSLASH1 Thanks and Good luck

You have to have a USB to midi interface like a simple M-Audio midisport or a sound card with midi in and out on it

@hardrockjase Yes, I believe that is correct 10 pedals x 10 banks = 100 presets that you can select Numbers 1 through 100 only as far as I know

Hi, after many days of hard work, seems as if yours is THE video I was desperately needing. GR5 is receiving the MIDI commands, but then it doesn´t respond. So it seems as if I have to right click on the controls at the right and select learn, then assign it to the MIDI command detected in the new controller I just added...I wasn't doing that. What was puzzling me is the fact that if after clicking learn in the controller I press any key (in the PC keyboard) it is detected and it will be working on the spot. I'm at work now, I can't wait to be back at home ant test this thing. Thanks, Robert.

But the only difference was that instead of right clicking on buttons or knobs on devices at the right, I clicked on the controller's Menu button and select the action from the list, do you think that that is my problem? So far, C0 commands, like "go to preset #nn" work without any learning, but I need to add commands for skipping to previous/next preset and change volume knobs. I must add that I'm sending MIDI commands from an Arduino board (but it's the same for GR, it detects the incoming commands, maybe I'm not using the right ones), thanks. I'm not a MIDI expert (but at thie pace sure will be in the future!)

rva1945 Hi, I can't remember how all the Guitar rig functions work. It's been a while since I did any of this. I now have a Kemper profiling Amplifier and I hardly ever use Guitar rig anymore once I got the Kemper. It's been a few months since I last used guitar rig

I don't understand your question? The FCB1010 will switch presets on any application that can be controlled by midi commands The UNo chip only makes the FCB into a 5 pedal stomp box and 5 presets

There is a link in the video description to my web site. The info there may be helpful

@ROCKERSLASH1 Hi, I am not sure what you are asking?

You have to have the UNO chip to be able to do stomp boxes

@warchild1976 You only need a midi out from the fcb to a midi in on your interface If you want to program the FCB with computer software, you will need to hook up a midi in to the fcb

No problem, I was just throwing out info. see ya

Thanks for the video. Do you need the uno chip to program stomp boxes?

+Off Wires No you can't control everything with one FCb1010. There are 100's of effects in Guitar Rig and only so many pedals on a FCB1010

thanks this its a great video i going to try to do i hope i can do it thanks again :u:u

Keys and switches can only turn things on and off You need an expression pedal. The fcb1010 has two of them

@HolyoakeD Hi, Yes, you can record the output of Guitar Rig I use guitar rig as a stand alone program I record the output of Guitar rig into Mixcraft 5 (and now Mixcraft 6) I don't record dry and then use GR in Mixcraft as a VST Most of my recordings have more than 10 guitar tracks It's difficult to have 10 tracks all with GR as a VST on each track I prefer to record Guiatr Rig just as if I was playing in a studio live or playing live. What you hear is what you get.

ur the best !

@ashasinov Yes, you can, but you can't do anything until you learn to program them Do a search for the Ed Dixon FCB1010 editor That's what I use to program my FCB's

@ROCKERSLASH1 Sorry, can't figure it out? Better ask on the Guitar Rig forum Maybe someone there knows?

The stomp box pedals can be set up to toggle off and on. Look at the video description above. There is a link to my music page. Look for the link on programming the FCB using Ed Dixon's editor. Copy my setups on those pages or download my .syx file and use it.

hi just got a stock 1010 to use with guitar rig it switches presets randomly. i just want certain pedals on the 1010 to bring up certain presets is this possible.

Yes, You have to program the FCB1010. The pedals can be made to call up any preset number when you program the FCB. Go to the link in my video description

Paul Burke Go to my page, look at all the info, install the software and then see if you still have questions. My web pages have a ton of helpful info

@warchild1976 You need a midi interface, not a midi controller The FCB is a midi controller as are most MIDI keyboards Do a search for M-audio UNO if you want to see a simple one I have a UNO and a M-Audio external sound card. Both of those devices can send MIDI signals to the computer

Hi, When you first get a FCB, you have to calibrate the pedals. That may be it. If not, I don't know why the pedals don't register You could try and program them like I have my stock FCB The link in my description will lead to my fcb page

@EL34XYZ ok thank you
