IMPORTANT NOTES

291a

In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT

SAFELY” on page 2, please read and observe the following:

Power Supply: Use of
Batteries

301

• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is
being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by
an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine,
microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a
motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical
appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit
to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not
practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a
power supply noise filter between this unit and the
electrical outlet.

302

• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long
hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a
cause for concern.

303a

• The use of an AC adaptor is recommended as the unit’s
power consumption is relatively high.

304a

• When installing or replacing batteries, always turn off the
power on this unit and disconnect any other devices you
may have connected. This way, you can prevent
malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices.

306b

• Batteries are supplied with the unit. The life of these
batteries may be limited, however, since their primary
purpose was to enable testing.

307

• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the
power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions
and/or damage to speakers or other devices.

Placement

352a

• This device may interfere with radio and television
reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such
receivers.

354a

• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near
devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed
vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes.
Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.

355b

• When moved from one location to another where the
temperature and/or humidity is very different, water
droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage
or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in
this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must
allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation
has completely evaporated.

360

• Depending on the material and temperature of the surface
on which you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor
or mar the surface.

Maintenance

401a

• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth
or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To
remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a
mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe
the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.

402

• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or
deformation.

Repairs and Data

452

• Please be aware that all data contained in the unit’s
memory may be lost when the unit is sent for repairs.
Important data should always be backed up in another
MIDI device (e.g., a sequencer), or written down on paper
(when possible). During repairs, due care is taken to avoid
the loss of data. However, in certain cases (such as when
circuitry related to memory itself is out of order), we
regret that it may not be possible to restore the data, and
Roland assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.

Additional Precautions

551

• Please be aware that the contents of memory can be
irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the
improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against
the risk of loosing important data, we recommend that
you periodically save a backup copy of important data
you have stored in the unit’s memory in another MIDI
device (e.g., a sequencer).

552

• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents
of data that was stored in another MIDI device (e.g., a
sequencer) once it has been lost. Roland Corporation
assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.

553

• Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s
buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks
and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.

554

• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.

556

• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the
connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you
will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s
internal elements.

558b

• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s
volume at reasonable levels (especially when it is late at
night).

558c

• Since sound vibrations can be transmitted through floors
and walls to a greater degree than expected, take care not
to allow such sound to become a nuisance to neighbors,
especially at night and when using headphones.

559a

• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box
(including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise,
you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.

561

• Use only the specified expression pedal (Roland EV-5,
BOSS FV-500L or FV-500H; sold separately). By
connecting any other expression pedals, you risk causing
malfunction and/or damage to the unit.

Introduction

About the MODES

The FC-300 features the following four modes. The pedals function differently
depending on the mode that’s selected.

This manual describes each mode separately, while explaining the items available in
a particular mode.

Standard Mode (p. 16)

This mode is for sending Program Change messages and Control Change messages.

You can use the pedals to send any Program Change messages.

Control Change Mode (p. 21)

This mode is for sending Control Change messages.

You can use this mode to send the Control Change messages assigned to the pedals,
and enhance the expressiveness of a performance.

You can also store up to five sets, or configurations, of settings for all of the pedals
(Pedal Setting function).

See “Switching Modes” (p.

15) for an explanation of how

to choose a mode.

System Exclusive Mode (p. 28)

This mode is for sending System Exclusive messages.

You can use this mode to operate other equipment that accepts SysEx messages sent
from the FC-300.

Patch Mode (p. 29)

This mode is for transmitting multiple MIDI messages (MIDI streams) already saved
to patches.

Patches are areas of memory in which MIDI streams are stored; you can save up to
100 patches.

An individual patch can hold MIDI messages containing up to a maximum of
approximately 500 bytes.

Using Patch Mode, you can transmit groups of MIDI messages through one patch,
which allows you to switch the settings of multiple devices all at once.

Standard Mode

Using the External Control Pedals and Expression Pedals

You can connect separately available footswitches and expression pedals and use the
external pedals just like the FC-300’s pedals to transmit Control Change messages,
Realtime messages, and other such data.

For details about the all

parameters and changes the

setting, refer to “Change the

Pedal Settings” (p. 19).

When a BOSS FS-5U, FS-6 Footswitch is Connected,
Assigned to CTL Pedal:

These function in the same way as the FC-300’s built-in control pedals.

Connect a control pedal to the EXP PEDAL/CTL jack and set the FC-300 to enable
use of the pedal. (p. 50)

* If you have two FS-5U pedals or an FS-6 pedal connected to the CTL3,4 jack with a special

PCS-31 connecting cable (from Roland; available separately), the footswitch connected to
the plug with the white ring controls the setting of CONTROL 3, and the footswitch
connected to the plug with the red ring controls the setting of CONTROL 4.

* When only one footswitch is connected to the CTL3,4 jack, the CONTROL 3 settings are

enabled.

* When an FS-6 is connected to the CTL3,4 jack with an optional connection cable

(stereo 1/4” phone ←→ stereo 1/4” phone), pedal switch B operates according to the
CONTROL 3 settings, and pedal switch A operates according to the CONTROL 4
settings.

See “Making the

Connections” (p. 11) for

instructions on setting the

polarity switch and mode

switch for the connected pedal.

When a Roland EV-5, BOSS FV-500L or FV-500H is
Connected, Assigned to Expression Pedal:

These function in the same way as the FC-300’s built-in expression pedals.

Connect a expression pedal to the EXP PEDAL/CTL jack and set the FC-300 to
enable use of the pedal. (p. 50)

* These do not operate as expression pedal switches.

* If you are connecting a BOSS FV-500L/FV-500H, connect the pedal with an optional

These output Control Change messages.

When the pedal is used as an expression pedal, consecutive values are output within
the range set with the Range setting. When the pedal is used as a control pedal or
other type of switch, the maximum value is output when the switch is on, and the
minimum value is output when the switch is off.

• MIDI START / MIDI STOP / MIDI CONTINUE / MMC STOP / MMC PLAY /
MMC DEF PLAY / MMC FAST FWD / MMC REWIND / MMC REC STROBE /
MMC REC EXIT / MMC REC PAUSE / MMC PAUSE

This transmits MIDI Realtime messages and MMC messages.

When assigned to an expression pedal, messages are output once the pedal is
pressed downward past the halfway point; when assigned to a control pedal or other
switch, the messages are output when the switch is on.

• P.BEND / CH.PRS

These transmit various Pitch Bend messages and Channel Pressure messages.

When assigned to an expression pedal, consecutive values are output within the
range set with the Range parameter. When assigned to a control pedal, the
maximum value is output when the switch is on, and the minimum value is output
when the switch is off.
