Behringer FCB1010 Manual Do Proprietário

MIDI FOOT CONTROLLER FCB1010 User Manual

1. Introduction

Congratulations! With the BEHRINGER MIDI FOOT CONTROLLER FCB1010 you

purchased an ultra-flexible controller unit for a wide range of applications,

whether you are a guitarist, keyboard player or studio engineer: 10 BANKS

with 10 PRESETS each and two fully user-programmable expression pedals will

give you enough flexibility to manage your MIDI equipment. Guitar players

will particularly appreciate the option of selecting channels using two analog

SWITCHES, as they allow you to fully control both amplifier and effects from one

“switching center”. And with its ultra-rugged enclosure and built-in power supply

the FCB1010 is absolutely ready for the road, too. The easy-to-use programming

interface gives you fun instead of frustration, and invites you to fully exploit the

capabilities of your MIDI equipment.

◊

The following user’s manual is intended to familiarize you with the
unit’s control elements, so that you can master all the functions.
After having thoroughly read the user’s manual, store it at a safe place
for future reference.

1.1 Before you get started

1.1.1 Shipment
The FCB1010 was carefully packed at the factory to assure secure transport.

Should the condition of the cardboard box suggest that damage may have taken

place, please inspect the unit immediately and look for physical indications

of damage.

◊

Damaged units should NEVER be sent directly to us. Please inform the
dealer from whom you acquired the unit immediately as well as the
transportation company from which you took delivery of the unit.
Otherwise, all claims for replacement/repair may be rendered invalid.

◊

To assure optimal protection of your FCB1010 during use or transport,
we recommend utilizing a carrying case.

◊

Please always use the original packaging to avoid damage due to
storage or shipping.

◊

Never let unsupervised children play with the FCB1010 or with
its packaging.

◊

Please dispose of all packaging materials in an environmentally-
friendly fashion.

1.1.2 Initial operation
Please make sure the unit is provided with sufficient ventilation, and never place

the FCB1010 on top of an amplifier or in the vicinity of a heater to avoid the risk

of overheating.

◊

Before plugging the unit into a power socket, please make sure you
have selected the correct voltage:

The fuse compartment near the power plug socket contains three triangular

markings. Two of these triangles are opposite one another. The voltage

indicated adjacent to these markings is the voltage to which your unit has

been set up, and can be altered by rotating the fuse compartment by 180°.

ATTENTION: This does not apply to export models that were for example

manufactured only for use with 120 V!

◊

If you alter the unit’s voltage, you must change the fuse accordingly.
The correct value of the fuse needed can be found in the
chapter “Specifications”.

◊

Faulty fuses must be replaced with fuses of appropriate rating without
exception! The correct value of the fuses needed can be found in the
chapter “Specifications”.

Power is delivered via the cable enclosed with the unit. All requiered safety

precautions have been adhered to.

◊

Please make sure that the unit is grounded at all times. For your own
protection, you should never tamper with the grounding of the cable
or the unit itself. The unit shall always be connected to a mains socket
outlet with a protective earthing connection.
