FOOT CONTROLLER FCV100 Controls

Controls

By switching into “NORM” mode, the FCV100 is capable of controlling the volume of two individual musical instruments. Signals from INPUT 1/2are led to OUTPUT 1/2. In “CV” mode the FCV100 can control modulation and volume levels of other musical instruments by connecting OUTPUT 2 to the volume or modulation input of the instrument. In “CV” mode, when OUTPUT is in use, INPUT/OUTPUT 1 can still be used for controlling the volume of another instrument, similar to “NORM” mode.
All connections are made with standard 1/4″ TRS plugs.
In “NORM” mode, these jacks are used to feed separate instrument inputs with the FCV100’s input signal. If you only use OUTPUT 2 in “CV” mode, the FCV100 functions as a CV controller.
Turning the MIN VOL control fully clockwise will increase the volume at the minimum setting. This allows you to set the volume range.
By using the pedal in the NORM mode, you control the volume level in both channels. In CV mode, the pedal controls OUTPUT 2 for a remote control of parameters such as sound or effects.
When the battery LED indicator dims or does not light up, you need to replace the battery.
Connect your instruments via the INPUTS 1/2 using the “NORM” mode.
In “CV” mode, INPUT 2 of your FVC100 can not be used since the control signal comes exclusively from OUTPUT 2. As stated before, you may use INPUT 1/OUTPUT 1 also in “CV” mode to control the volume level of instruments.
The FCV100 can be operated via an 12 V DC power adapter or with a 9 V battery (Type 6LR91). If you use a battery and the power adapter at the same time, the FCV100 draws no power from the battery.
