MIDI FOOT CONTROLLER FCB1010 User Manual 2.2.2 MIDI channel setting ◊ External equipment, for example guitar or bass amps, can be controlled by using SWITCH 1 and 2 outputs of the FCB1010. If the FCB1010 triggers this function, you should first check if the piece of equipment you are trying to control reacts to connection state (contact open or closed) or current feed (contact closed as long as the switch is depressed).
