PP FAQ

What's the difference between Basic & Advanced PP programming setting?

Advanced PP programming allows you to set the MIDI channel per EF pedal, per Expression Pedal, and per Pr mode.

What do I need for this setup?

A Behringer FCB1010, a MIDI cable, and a MIDI controlled device (plus that device's MIDI manual).

Are there specific examples of how to set up this configuration with device X?
