Custom Teensy 3.1 Midi Controller - FCB Inifinity 2

Hey miknshla! That's awesome! I'm still enjoying my FCB modification daily. It's really stable and useful. Especially love the single cable setup and ability to use tap tempo, tuner and stompboxes. I was thinking about adding a keyboard mode. Have the FCB send midi notes to a VST instrument so...

Axe-Edit Developer's Diary, Jun 13 2013

I'm running win8 on a laptop/tablet hybrid with a removable touchscreen. Are you guys making the new AxeEdit touchscreen compatible? eg. drag/drop effect blocks, dragging sliders, etc? The old AE worked quite ok with a touchscreen. I'm just wondering since you say it's a complete rewrite. Keep...

Front or back input?

Hey Guys, I'm using a MusicMan JP model with piezo pickups that has the ability to send out magnetic and piezo signal separately over stereo cable. I've been using the back input with a TRS to 2x TS Y-cable so the AxeFx also receives these signals separately. I've been able to create nice...

Behringer FCB1010 Mod: LCD to show tuner and patchnames

Good to hear. Everything's open source, so if someone wants to start a modding service for the FCBInfinity they have my blessing. I personally dont have time to do this full- / part time for other folks. Furthermore, allthough there might be a market for it, the current market is already...

Behringer FCB1010 Mod: LCD to show tuner and patchnames

Hey! yep, i've been working on the pedal every so now and then. But for the most part i have just been gigging and enjoying it ;) Just waiting for v10 firmware before modifying more. v9 scene's are supported now and work wonderfully. Oof, sorry man. Sorry I made you feel like I have abandoned...

Using SysEx to recall Present/Effect bypass status Info available?

Using SysEx to recall Present/Effect bypass status Info available?

Does someone know what triggers the AxeFx to start sending Looper Status messages? (0x23) I never receive these mind of messages until I open the looper block in Axe-Edit, afterwards it just keeps sending these messages. It contains the status for the various looper controls and the current...

Behringer FCB1010 Mod: LCD to show tuner and patchnames

Oof, two bumps already. :( Very sorry folks, I have been abroad for a couple of weeks. So not much progress on the FCBInfinity at the moment, other than the fact that it just works. I still need to fix the power stability, better indication of the various Looper states and general cleanup of the...

Behringer FCB1010 Mod: LCD to show tuner and patchnames

Thanks! The draft version of the parts list is on the github. I'm still struggling to create a stable AC to DC current transformation. The setup I have now works great on USB power, but the 10v AC power conversion makes the LCD flicker and the analog inputs from the ExpPedals very unstable...

Using SysEx to recall Present/Effect bypass status Info available?

I'm getting some strange results when I request this info from the AxeFx-II v6.02. For a (testing) preset that has a bypassed Reverb1 and an active Amp1 I get the following response. Request: F0 0 1 74 1 E 8A F7 Return: F0 0 1 74 3 E 1 4A 10 53 6 2 26 51 73 6 F7 Per effect block the data...

Behringer FCB1010 Mod: LCD to show tuner and patchnames

For some reason I had "Mapping mode" set to custom instead of none in the AxeFx > IO > Midi setting. Sending the CC#0 didnt fix the PC#2 mapping to 384, but setting mapping to none did fix it. Good to know ;)

Behringer FCB1010 Mod: LCD to show tuner and patchnames

BOM? I'm not quite sure what that means ;) Hah, just look for a PCB service near you. My board cost about 25 euros (30 dollar). The exact line is here: https://github.com/mackatack/FCBInfinity/blob/102ebce67115fce167c0208d9b1306b7a7ce280c/Teensyduino/fcbinfinity/fcbinfinity.ino#L198 I'm...

Behringer FCB1010 Mod: LCD to show tuner and patchnames

Having that said, the ports are bi-directional. You can use them as input to connect buttons, but you can also use them as output to control a led. To control a led you'd just have to add a resistor so the led doesn't burn out. So basically you could add 12 buttons or leds using the 4 ports on...

Behringer FCB1010 Mod: LCD to show tuner and patchnames

Hehe, no clue :P perhaps it was sending CC#0 from some debug code of mine ;) Well, I have added room for 4 extra buttons on my PCB, and a single RGB led. Beside that, if you check the FCBInfinity schematic you can see PWM pin 26 is still available for you to directly solder a led to. If you...

Behringer FCB1010 Mod: LCD to show tuner and patchnames

I have added it to the code yes, but I havn't been able to test it yet. At the moment i'm coding in the dark since i'm not at home, haha :P Nonetheless thanks for the hint, it sounds very plausible that might just be the problem. ;)

Yes, the project is entirely open source and everything can be found either on my blog or on my GitHub repository, the code I have so far is also available there. Of course, the code is nowhere near it's final state at the moment. The switch I've added is to control the stompbox mode on the...

Behringer FCB1010 Mod: LCD to show tuner and patchnames

Heya! - Nope, as you can see on my Blog is that I have completely replaced the original PCB and replaced the chip with a Teensy++ 2.0 board so I can control everything myself. - Yes, it still allows you to send midi messages over the 5-cable setup, however I used my earlier mod and send...

It's been a while since an update, so here we go! In the meantime I redesigned the PCB and had a couple of PCBs manufactured for me. I now have everything housed in the old FCB1010 again. I have so far programmed it to do some simple ProgramChanges and show the preset name and tuner info on the...
