Hi you all, I just bought a MIDI Foot Controller from Behringer, the FCB1010. It is working great in triggering samples or loops, even footswitch functions on the MPC can be done with your feet.
My question is how can I use the expression pedal that came in the controller with MPC. They send Control change messages.
I looked in the manual and it has only in page 33 , nothing really explainable.
Can I control parameters in real time,such as volume or even tune as the sliders, with the expression pedal?
Would the expression pedals be useful for anything in the MPC1000?
Thank you

I have both of these products. It's got nothing to do with the FCB, the MPC doesn't respond to CC#s for any sampler, FX, or Mixer settings. Nobody's ever figured out if there's SYSEX you can use though.

The MPC can TX & RX CC# messages in sequencer section. I dont think u can control it in real time though. you'll have to edit them in step edit mode.
