The A,D,and B strings are using the expression pedal to come up a full tone.

I'm not able to get the bending with my FC-300. Anyone have a clue how to get that to work? I've not had good luck using it for anything other than switching patches and as a volume pedal  ::)

Thanks aliensporebomb your patches and playing knock me out too.And 727Lawrence I don't have an FC-300 but if you open your VG99 editor with the BENDYSTRAT patch and go into the control assign section this should do the trick.Go to the CTL/EXP section and turn off the EXP pedal. Then go to the FC-300 section and under the menu for EXP pedal 1 go to ALT TUNING then to (A)BEND then to BEND switch the EXP pedal 1 on and you should be good to go.

Thanks Duffy. I had realized that same thing about the assignments and got it working. Fun stuff!

I took the liberty of modifying this patch to work with the FC-300, and also to make it a bit more straight-ahead country in sound. Left pedal is bend and right pedal is volume.

H1, ive used your patch with the FC-300 modification but cant get the bend to work, any ideas
love the tone,

Hi Philpot. I'm just getting my feet wet with some of the assignment stuff myself. Hopefully, one of the more experienced "guru" status members can help out here. However, I did use the pedal as an on/off for the bend capability also, so you might try pressing down on it all the way forward. For it to be working you should see the red light come on by the pedal. Good luck!
