> - Assign Hold :what does it for?
Suppose you got your volume pedal on the fcb half up (lets say on value 63
or something, I use a fc 200 footcontroller)
If you change a patch with the assing hold on the next patch will also have
the volume on 63.
If you have the assign off the patch will get its programmed value.

> - Effects off MD ?

Direct: the signal will be send unchanged to the outputs if the fx are not
on.
Mute: if thewre are no fx's on you won't hear anything, have an output
signal.

> - Key=C user# ?

I think they are for the pitch shifter, never used them.
I can do a lot of bla about them but it has to do with the key a song is
written in I think......

can't help you here, wath do you mean ?

They are not the midi channels but Control Commands, CC numbers.
Your FCB probably c\also sends them like my fc 200 does.
You can assign effects to your midi foot controller in the vf's master
section, they have to match to react.

The cc numbers are necesary for the fcb.
The assign hold function is not really necessary to know but itsd helpfull
to know, lol.

ok, not a member myself but I guess you mean the yahoo fcb group.

thats fine

success.

Last word, I have  my vf as an fx machine hooked up in my mixer, dont' use
it together wit a midi footcontroller so I gave you some quick and hopefull
more as  halfway reliable answers.
