Boss RC-505 & FCB1010 Midi Controller (Part 1)

Is this working with the 505 mk2?

Hello 🙂.
Is it possible to connect keyboard on RC 505 ( midi connections ) for play and record in a daw. ( Fl studio ) without a additional sound card ?

Thanks. Keep it UP👍

Same question/comment I just got an RC505 MKII and wondering how to get it working with the FCB1010 and UNO505 chip upgrade

Unfortunately with the new looper version (RC-505mkII) I don't seem to get the same result as with the old model... Too bad... Did anyone succeed?

Hi, there. Is it possible to control boss rc600 with the FCB1010? Thanks!

HI Greetriman, I've just got the new RC 505 MKII and I'm wondering if is possible to use the same configuration

Thank you! This is great!

Hi, i bought the chipset, it work very good, but i wanted to have access to the bank of the FCB1010, to have the possibility to assign other stuff with a second bank, is it possible to configure this?

can i use my FCB1010 with my RC-505 without the UNO or 505 chip upgrade? right now i just want to try it without the upgraded chip

A lot of this has been changed now with the new FCB505. The Midi has to be set to 13. The buttons have to be CC#20 upwards not CC#21 upwards. And you don't have to do anything to the 1010 at all apart from make sure that the pedals are calibrated to start at 00 - 127. There is a Manual at the bottom of the FCB UNO site.

This helps a lot. Thanks!
Is there a way to write information saved in one channel to the other 99 channels without manually assigning them all?

Please can you tele.. once the pedals are assigned, do the buttons on the rc505 still work? I would like to be able to initiate play/record at floor level, but for the remainder of the song (performance)be able to use the rc505 by hand.

Boom got emm this one did it

give to use the fcb1010 Control on gt1?

Hey Greetriman,
So all that is needed is to install 505 into fcb1010 and then program the boss 505 loop station?
Thanks!,

Thanks for your time, I've been thinking about this equipment combo for days, with RC303 alternative... great tutorial.

Hi do you have to have the additional chip for all of this to work? Thanks

Great video, thanks for making the effort of posting! I saw your updated link and just bought the 505 firmware chip. can't wait.

Hi very nice video!
SinceI'm a proud owner of an 505 and fcb1010, Do you know where i can buy the 505 chip I cant find it in you link in the descpription.

Greetz,

Jasper

Hi thanks for this great video, i want to order the FCB 505 Ship but i'm not sur to understand everything... "only one bank is available though and everything is fixed on the fcb" means that i can't use other preset to control guitar Rig (For example) ? . Thanks again :) !

Can this be done with a stock FCB1010?

Could it be done with any midi pedal? Like the cheaper model Rolls mp80?

This is very helpfull!! I am a guitarplayer and just bought the rc 505 knowing that the rc 300 would be a better choice, still I decided to go for the rc 505. I have a question: how is it working out when you play, record and overdub? Does it work fine with the FCB?

Just an FYI for anyone purchasing a new FCB-505 firmware chip. The new chip turns your FCB1010 into a dedicated controller for the RC-505, your CC messages are fixed at this point and not programmable. That being said,,, these videos were quite informative and worth watching in understanding and making decisions on how you would make choices on what buttons to assign cc messages to . Thanks for posting this video its quite useful.

Thanks for the indepth gothrough! I am wondering if you could set a target ONLY TO RECORD / OVERDUB / NOT OVERDUB — reason for this is, I dont like having to hold STOP for 2 seconds to erase a loop. My line6 helix has a dedicated REC button which overwrites existing loops when you press it while not playing back. I find that vey convenient.

You absolute legend. I bought this pedal thinking it would be possible to operate my rc505, and this video will help me!

Thank you for taking the time to create and upload this video. It's quite useful.

do you reckon I can get the same results with Nektar Pacer MIDI Foot Controller ?

Aloha - I posted on your 3rd video in a thread that I started last week. I was asking you about using the expression pedals. Like can we use the expression pedal to control the large turning knob on the rc505 to control not only volume but also the effects. This would be useful. Thanks.

Than you were much! You ar the best! Can i program pedal 1 to input fx level and pedal 2 to output fx level? And how?

hello Greetriman . Do you know where I can by a UnO v1.0.4 on line ? thank you

Did you manage to assign undo/redo commands on a single switch?

Thank you so much for sharing this with us, check out my Looping buddy DOVYDAS, I'm going to share this with him , he has had one for a while , I just got on last week. Cheers!

Is It possibile To make start And stop a prerecorded loop only by clicking one footswitch? ??
