SWITCHING ON THE POWER
First, check that you are connected properly with the external MIDI instrument. Then set the power switch on the FC-200
to “ON” or “ECONOMY.”
or
* The FC-200 is in the Program Change mode when first switched on.
* When the power is turned on, the MIDI channel is set to “1,” but you can change the MIDI
channel and store the setting in memory. For more information, see “MIDI Channel” (p. 21).
Ab out the ECONOMY Se tting
Ifyou’re runningthe FC-200 on batteries, settingthe powerswitch to “ECONOMY”instead of“ON”
makes it possible to use the FC-200 continuously for about 1.3 times longer. The display and
indicator may flicker a bit, but this doesn’t affect actual operation at all.
The Flow of MIDI Me ssa g e s
Regardlessofwhatmode you’re in, the FC-200 alwaysperformsa “SoftThru.”Thismeansthatevery
MIDI message produced by the FC-200 itself, as well as all MIDI messages that arrived at its MIDI
IN connector are sent out through the MIDI OUT connector.
* “Soft Thru” is a function that accepts MIDI messages coming in from the MIDI IN connector
and outputs them unchanged from the MIDI OUT connector.

1. Cha ng ing the Ba nk
Each press of a BANK pedal (UP/DOWN) changes the Bank, and the new Bank appears on the
display.
Press the UP pedal to increase the Bank number and the DOWN pedal to lower it.
* Simply changing the Bank does not cause a Program Change message to be sent. The Program
Change message is sent when you choose a Number as the next step.
2. Cha ng ing the Num b e r
Press a Number pedal (1 to 10) to choose a Number. The indicator for the Number pedal you’ve
depressed lights up, and a Program Change message is sent.
* If you want to send a Program Change message for a different Number in the same Bank, you
don’t have to choose the Bank again — just depress the pedal for the new Number.
* In addition to the method just described, you can send Program Change messages just by
switching the Bank, or use the Number pedals like a ten-key numeric keypad when switching
the Bank. For more details, see “Output of Program Change Messages When Changing Banks”
(p. 24) and “Changing Banks Using the Number Pedals” (p. 24).
Using the Control Pe d a l
Depressing the Control pedal causes the value for controller number 80 (General-Purpose
Controller 5) to be sent.
Depressing the Control pedal sends the message “ON” 127 (7Fh), and releasing it sends the
message “OFF” 0 (00h). The pedal indicator lights up when on.
*You can change the value ofthe controller numbers. See “Controller Number Settingfor Control
Pedal” (p. 21).
* The Control pedal sends an ON message when depressed and an OFF message when released,
which meansthat it isa “momentarytype pedal.” You can change thisto “latch type” operation,
which sends an ON or OFF message each time you depress it — see “Setting for Latch Type
Control Pedal Operation” (p. 21).
* You can use the Control pedal to send Realtime messages and MMC (MIDI Machine Control)
messages. For details, see “ABOUT REALTIME MESSAGES AND MMC MESSAGES” (p. 29).

Using the Control Pe d a l, Num b e r Pe d a ls, a nd Ba nk Pe d a ls
Depressing the Control pedal, a Number pedal (1 to 10), or a Bank pedal (UP/DOWN) sends the
Control Change message for the controller number assigned to the corresponding pedal.
Depressing a pedal sends an ON 127 (7Fh) message, and depressing it again sends an OFF 0 (00h)
message. The indicator for the pedal lights up when on.
* The Control pedal is a momentary type pedal that sends an ON message when depressed and
an OFF message when released. You can change this to latch type operation, which sends an
ON or OFF message each time you depress it — see “Setting for Latch Type Control Pedal
Operation” (p. 21).
* The Bank pedal (UP/DOWN) is a latch type — see “Setting for Latch Type Pedal Operation” (p.

Cha ng ing the Note Ra ng e b y Oc ta ve s During a Pe rform a nc e
During a performance, you can change the note range in octave steps. To do this, connect a BOSS
FS-5U foot switch (Optional) to FOOT SW/EXP jack 5 or 6. The operation of the pedal will vary
depending on whether it is connected to jack 5 or 6 — read on for more information.
FOOT SW/ EXP 5: Oc ta ve Shift-Up Func tion
Each press of the pedal makes the current note range an octave higher. You can raise the note range
as high as C6. The display shows the key number when “do” (Number pedal 1) is depressed.
FOOT SW/ EXP 6: Oc ta ve Shift-Down Func tion
Each press of the pedal lowers the current note range by an octave. The display shows the key
number when “do” (Number pedal 1) is depressed.
* At the factory defaults, you cannot lower the note range unless you have already connected a
foot pedal to FOOT SW/EXP jack 5 and depressed the pedal to raise the note range.
You can also vary the extent of the note range within which changes can take place when you
depress the foot pedal. For details, read “Octave Shift Upper Limit Setting” and “Octave Shift Lower
Limit Setting” (p. 27).
* If you have changed the note range with the foot pedals, the new setting remains active until
the power is switched off (even if you change modes).
Using the Exp re ssion Pe d a l
The expression pedal has the same settings as in the Program Change mode and Control Change
mode. Operating the expression pedal causes Control Change messages to be sent.
Using the Foot Switc h/ Exp re ssion Pe d a l Ja c ks
When you connect separately available BOSS FS-5U foot switches or Roland EV-5 expression
pedals to the FOOT SW/EXP 1, 2, 3, or 4 jacks, the connected pedals will have the same settings
as they do for the Program Change mode and Control Change mode. Operating the pedals causes
Control Change messages to be sent.
FOOT SW/EXP jacks 5 and 6 are used for the functions of Octave Shift Up/Down, so they do not
send Control Change messages.

In the Program Change mode, this sets whether Bank Select messages are to be sent together with
Program Change messages. This should normally be set to “Off” (not sent).
[On]: Bank Select messages are sent.
[Off]: Bank Select messages are not sent.
With MIDI, you can use combinations of Bank Select messages and Program Change messages to
select programs for a large number of Tones and other sounds.
* A Bank Select message consists of the controller 0 and 32 Control Change messages.
The FC-200 can send Program Change messages from 1 to 128, so a total of 128 programs can be
switched. This is the unit’s normal status, whereby Bank Select messages are not sent.
However, if you set the FC-200 so that Bank Select messages are sent, the total number of programs
that can be selected rises to a maximum of 1,000.
* To find out whether the receiving instrument can recognize incoming Bank Select messages,
refer to the Control Change column in the MIDI Implementation Chart in the manual for the
receiving instrument.
* If the receiving instrument uses controller numbers 0 and 32 for some function other than Bank
Select messages, you should set the FC-200 so that it does not send Bank Select messages.
The chart below shows the relationship between the MIDI Bank Select and Program Change
messages that the FC-200 sends. The Program Change messages enclosed in boxes are not sent.

The program number indicated by the Bank and Number pedal values shown in parentheses is
calculated in exactly the same way as for the Program Change numbers described in “About
Program Change Numbers” (p. 11). That is, the Program number is the Bank multiplied by ten, plus
the Number (Bank x 10 + Number).
* The Bank pedals are used to select the Bank, but you can only specify a Bank whose number is
within the limit set by the Bank Limit parameter. Read the next section, “Bank Limit,” for more
details about this.
Ba nk Lim it: 0 to 12 to 99
[
] (Ba nk Lim it)
In the Program Change mode, the Bank is selected with the Bank UP and DOWN pedals. This
parameter sets the upper limit for the Bank.
If the Bank DOWN pedal is depressed when the current Bank is 0, the Bank switches to the Bank
with the number set for the Bank Limit parameter. In the same way, pressing the Bank UP pedal
when the Bank is at the number set for the Bank Limit parameter, it switches to Bank 0.
As an example, let’s say that you’re sending Program Change messages to another instrument that
has 40 programs for Tones and the like. In this case, it can be handy to set Bank Limit to “3,” because
this causes only Banks 0 to 3 to be displayed.
* When the Bank Select parameter is set to “off,” Bank Limit cannot be set to a value of 13 or
higher.

In the Program Change mode, this sets whether Program Change messages are sent when the Bank
is switched.
[On]: A Program Change message is sent when the Bank is switched. The Number is that of the
Number pedal chosen before switching the Bank (in other words, the Number pedal
whose indicator is lit up).
[Off]: A Program Change message is not sent even when the Bank is switched. Instead, the
Program Change message is sent when the Number is selected with a Number pedal.
Cha ng ing Ba nks Using the Num b e r Pe d a ls: On / Off
[
] (Ba nk Cha ng e )
This setting determines whether the Number pedals can be used like a ten-key numeric keypad
when switching Banks in the Program Change mode.
[On]: Pressing the Bank UP pedal makes the left-hand (tens) digit for the Bank shown on the
display start to flash. You can then use the corresponding Number pedal to select the
desired Bank.
Pressing the Bank pedal DOWN makes the right-hand (units) digit for the Bank shown
on the display start to flash. You can then use the corresponding Number pedal to select
the desired Bank.
* Pressing a Number pedal higher than the value set for Bank Limit has no effect.
[Off]: Each press of a Bank pedal (UP or DOWN) switches the Bank, and the display changes
accordingly. Pressing UP increases the Bank and pressing DOWN lowers it.
* The timing for output of Program Change messages depends on the setting described
in “Output of Program Change Messages When Changing Banks.”

ABOUTREALTIMEMESSAGESANDMMC MESSAGES
Realtime messages and MMC messages are both used to operate externally connected devices. On the FC-200, Realtime
and MMC messages can be assigned to the pedals and FOOT SW/EXP jacks instead of controller numbers (p. 25).
Ab out Re a ltim e Me ssa g e s
These messages are used to operate a MIDI sequencer. If you connect a MIDI sequencer that
supports Realtime messages, you can use the pedals on the FC-200 to operate the sequencer.
* The FC-200 does not output MIDI Clock (F8h) data, so it cannot be used to start or stop some
types of MIDI sequencers.
* The connected sequencer must be in the “Remote” mode.
Remote mode: A playback mode that uses the MIDI sequencer’s internal clock to control
playback according to start and continue messages sent from an external device
(in this case, the FC-200).
Ab out MMC (MIDI Ma c hine Control) Me ssa g e s
These messages are used for MIDI operation of an audio device such as an MTR or tape recorder.
If you connect a device that supports MMC messages, you can use the pedals on the FC-200 to
operate the MTR or tape recorder.
How to Ma ke the Se tting s
Refer to “Controller Number Settings” (p. 25) for an explanation of how to make the settings. “FA,”
“FB,”“FC,”and “c1”to “c9”are displayed forRealtime and MMCmessagesin addition to controller

DATA TRANSFER USING MIDI
You can use System Exclusive (SysEx) messages to send the FC-200’s settings to another MIDI device. This makes it possible,
for instance, to reproduce identical settings on another FC-200, or to save the settings on a MIDI sequencer or some other
piece of equipment.

ABOUT CHANGING THE BATTERIES
Whe n Ba tte rie s Ne e d Cha ng ing
When the FC-200 is operated only on battery power, the display starts to flash when the batteries
begin to run down. This is a warning that means you need to replace the unit’s six size AA batteries
with fresh ones as soon as possible.
* When the display starts to flash, we recommend setting the Power switch to “ECONOMY” (if
it isn’t already at “ECONOMY”). Of course, you still need to replace the batteries as soon as
possible.
Cha ng ing the Ba tte rie s
* When changing the batteries, do not mix new batteries with used ones, or mix batteries of
different types.
* Be sure that the positive (“+”) and negative (“-”) ends of the batteries are positioned correctly
when installing new batteries.

USING MIDI
The FC-200 is equipped with MIDI terminals. Using these terminals to receive data from an external MIDI device makes
it possible to switch Program Numbers and change effect settings remotely.
Ab out MIDI
MIDI is the acronym for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface.” It is an industy-wide standard that
allows for data (such as that representing the music played, or for changes in sounds used) to be
exchanged among various instruments and computers. As long as they are MIDI compatible, all
devices, regardless of model or manufacturer, can exchange whatever performance data they are
both equipped to ‘understand.’
MIDI converts every ‘performance event’ into MIDI data. When received by another instrument,
this stream of MIDI data can be used to “play” it, as if that instrument itself were being played.
The Exc ha ng e of MIDI Da ta
Ab out MIDI Conne c tors
In carrying out the exchange of MIDI data, the three connectors shown below are used. MIDI cables
can be routed from these connectors in varying ways depending on the kind of setup you have in
mind.
MIDI IN:
MIDI OUT:
Receives data from another MIDI device.
Transmits data originating in the unit.
MIDI THRU: Sends out an exact copy of the data received at MIDI IN.
* The FC-200 has MIDI IN and MIDI OUT ports.
MIDI Cha nne ls
In MIDI communications, a single cable simultaneously carries different streams of performance
information for a multiple number of MIDI devices. This is possible thanks to the concept of MIDI
channels.
MIDI channels are in some ways similar to the channels on a television set. On a TV, a variety of
programs broadcast from different stations can be viewed by switching channels. This is because
the information on any particular channel is conveyed only when the receiver is set to the same
channel that is being used for transmission.
On a TV, you switch channels to watch the station (program) you want.
Station A
The cable coming from
Station B
the antenna carries the
TV signals for a variety
of broadcasts.
Station C
The channels available with MIDI range from 1 through 16. When a musical instrument (the
receiver) is set so its channel matches the MIDI channel used by the transmitting device, the MIDI
data is successfully ‘communicated.’

MIDI Me ssa g e s Re c og nize d by the FC-200
In order to convey the great variety of expression possible with music, the MIDI standard contains
a large range of data ‘types’ (messages). MIDI messages can be divided into two main types:
messages that are handled on each channel (Channel messages); and messages that are handled
independently of channels (System messages).
CHANNEL MESSAGES
These messages are used to convey the events of a performance. In most circumstances, they alone
are sufficient for providing the range of control needed. The specific results obtained by the various
MIDI message of this type are determined by the settings on the unit receiving them.
Prog ra m Cha ng e Me ssa g e s
These messages are used for conveying information about changes to another sound. Sounds are
changed using Program Change Numbers, numbered from 1 through 128.
Control Cha ng e Me ssa g e s
Control Change messages serve in enhancing the expressiveness of a performance. Every available
function can be identified by itsown Control Number. The functions which are available forcontrol
can vary widely depending on the MIDI device being used.
Note Me ssa g e s
Note messages convey the notes played during a performance. There are several kinds of Note
messages:
Note Number: A number representing the position of a key on the keyboard.
Note On:
Note Off:
Velocity:
Produced when a keyboard key has been pressed.
Produced when a keyboard key has been released.
Conveys the amount of strength used when keys are pressed. (Commonly called
‘volume’.)
* Note Numbers express the full range of possible keyboard keys, using the numbers 0 to 127.
Middle C (C4) is Note number 60.
SYSTEM MESSAGES
System messages include Exclusive messages, messages used for synchronizing the performance
of multiple units, and other messages employed for diagnostic purposes. The RV-70 supports the
use of Exclusive messages.
Exc lusive Me ssa g e s
Exclusive messages handle information related to a unit’s own unique sounds, or other device-
specific information. Generally, such messages can only be exchanged between devices of the
same model by the same manufacturer.
Exclusive messages can be employed to save the settings for Parameter Programs into a sequencer,
or for transferring such data to another FC-200.

MIDI Im p le m e nta tion Cha rt
MIDI has made it possible for a wide range of musical instruments to communicate with each other, but that doesn’t
necessarily mean that the many types of data will all be understood. If communication between two connected MIDI
devices is to be successful, it must take place using only the types of data that they have in common.
It is for this reason that every owner’s manual — for all kinds of MIDI devices — always includes a MIDI
Implementation Chart as a quick reference to the types of MIDI messages it is capable of handling. You should
compare the MIDI Implementation Charts for any two devices in order to find out which types of data can be
exchanged. Since these charts are standardized, you can place them so they overlap. This way you can easily
compare the receiving device with the transmitting device.

1. Da ta Form a t for Exc lusive Me ssa g e s
This field contains a message to be exchanged across an interface. The
exact data size and content will vary with the Model ID and Command
ID.
Roland’s MIDI implementation uses the following data format for all
Exclusive messages (type IV):

Model ID
Address mapping is a technique for transferring messages conforming
to the data format given in Section 1. It assigns a series of memory-
resident records—waveform and tone data, switch status, and param-
eters, for example, to specific locations in a machine-dependent
address space, thereby allowing access to data residing at the address
a message specifies.
Command ID

End of exclusive
• MIDI sta tus: F0H, F7H
An Exclusive message must be flanked by a pair of status codes,
starting with a Manufacturer ID immediately after F0H (MIDI version
1.0).
Address-mapped data transfer is therefore independent of models and
data categories. This technique allows use of two different transfer
procedures: one-way transfer and handshake transfer.
• Ma nufa c ture r ID: 41H
• One -wa y tra nsfe r p roc e d ure (Se e Se c tion 3 for
d e ta ils.)
The Manufacturer ID identifies the manufacturer of a MIDI instrument
that sends an Exclusive message. Value 41H represents Roland’s
Manufacturer ID.
This procedure is suited to the transfer of a small amount of data. It
sends out an Exclusive message completely independent of the receiv-
ing device's status.
• De vic e ID: DEV
The Device ID contains a unique value that identifies individual
devices in the implementation of several MIDI instruments. It is usually
set to 00H–0FH, a value smaller by one than that of a basic channel,
but value 00H–1FH may be used for a device with several basic
channels.

• Mod e l ID: MDL
Connection at point 2 is essential for “Request data” procedures. (See
Section 3.)
The Model ID contains a value that identifies one model from another.
Different models, however, may share an identical Model ID if they
handle similar data.
• Ha nd sha ke -tra nsfe r p roc e d ure
The ModelID formatmaycontain 00H in one ormore placesto provide
an extended data field. The following are examples of valid Model IDs,
each representing a unique model:
(This device does not use this procedure)
This procedure initiates a predetermined transfer sequence
(handshaking) across the interface before data transfer takes place.
Handshaking ensures that reliability and transfer speed are high
enough to handle a large amount of data.

IDs, each representing a unique function:

transfer procedure, share identical Device ID and Model ID, and are
ready for communication.

The MIDI standards inhibit non real-time messages from interrupting
an Exclusive one. This fact is inconvenient for devices that support a
“soft-thru” function. To maintain compatibility with such devices,
Roland has limited the DT1 to 256 bytes so that an excessively long
message is sent out in separate 'segments'.
3. One -wa y Tra nsfe r Proc e d ure
This procedure sends out data until it has all been sent and is used when
the messages are so short that answerbacks need not be checked.
For longer messages, however, the receiving device must acquire each
message in time with the transfer sequence, which inserts 20 millisec-
onds intervals.

This message is sent out when there is a need to acquire data from a
device at the other end of the interface. It contains data for the address
and size that specify designation and length, respectively, of data
required.
On receiving an RQ1 message, the remote device checks its memory
for the data address and size that satisfy the request.

If it finds them and is ready for communication, the device will transmit
a “Data set 1 (DT1)” message, which contains the requested data.
Otherwise, the device won't send out anything.
