Midi Question

Post by gunnugget »

Hi everyone - I have been using FS for about 2 years now and I love it - great piece of software.

we have a very modest setup, 6x par56 led's, 2x icolor floods and a 750w strobe.

FS has been doing a great job running this gear but I would like to move into midi ..... I usually run the sound / lights for a little covers band that pulls around 150-300 per show I do it for free but some nights I just cant make it for whatever reason. I would like to setup the performers with something like the Behinger FCB1010 midi foot controler for when im not there.

Would this setup work? I am not sure how Midi communicates to FS or if it will even support this board - it has 10 foot switches that I would assign to scenes / overrides and 2 expression pedals I would like to assign to brightness and speed if possible.

HAs anyone run a midi setup that can enlighten me on how this will work?

I use the FCB 1010 and I would suggest getting the Uno chip upgrade for it and an pc editor called ripwerx.
Makes setting it up easy.
If you do this I have a file you can have a copy of that'll get you the first 10 switches and you can copy for the next bank and so on.
