FBV MkII Advanced User Guide: Controlling 3rd Party Software

fbV™ Mkii wiTh 3rd ParTy sofTware
Once you have things connected and powered up (if you haven’t, then head on back to “Getting
Started” on page 1•1), you should now be ready to put your Line 6 FBV Shortboard™ MkII or FBV
Express™ MkII device to work to remotely control your favorite software applications! Here we’ve
included some helpful tips and examples for how to configure MIDI and DAW software applications to
respond to your FBV MkII device.
About USB MIDI Ports & Channels
When connected to the USB port of your Mac
®
or Windows
®
computer, your FBV MkII device
establishes one USB “MIDI In” port and four USB “MIDI Out” ports on your computer. These are not
“physical” ports that require you to use a mess of MIDI cables - your FBV communicates all its MIDI
data across your USB cable to these “virtual” software MIDI ports.
The FBV MIDI In port is utilized by your FBV MkII device to receive MIDI information, and its primary
function is to allow your FBV to communicate with Line 6 Monkey and FBV Control applications.
You likely will not be using this MIDI In port with other software, since your desired use of your FBV is
to transmit MIDI commands, which it does via its MIDI Out ports. You’ll be able to access these FBV
MIDI Ports within the Options or Preferences settings of any software on your computer that supports
MIDI communication.
Windows
®
MIDI Port Communication
It is important to note that the Windows
®
USB Class Compliant driver, which is used for your FBV
MkII device on Windows
®
7, Vista
®
and XP, inherently will not allow more than one application utilize
one USB MIDI port at a time. The Line 6 FBV Control application, when open, uses the FBV MIDI
In port and the MIDI Out port 4 for communication with your FBV device. Therefore, if you have
another MIDI/DAW software application also currently running on your Windows
®
computer that is
configured to also use these same FBV MIDI ports, only one application will be permitted to do so.
If you already have your MIDI/DAW software running, and it has the FBV MIDI In port enabled,
trying to then launch the Line 6 FBV Control application will typically result in the FBV Control
application failing to detect the connected FBV device, since it is “in use” already by the other software.
One possible solution is to disable the use of the FBV MIDI In port and FBV MIDI Out 4 port within
your MIDI/DAW software to permit you to still use it while also using the FBV Control application.
(You should be OK keeping the MIDI/DAW software enabled for receiving from the FBV MIDI Out
ports 1 through 3, which allows you to still send MIDI Control commands from FBV to your software.)
Otherwise, you should exit all other MIDI/DAW applications when using the FBV Control software
to provide full MIDI port access to the FBV Control software for editing your FBV control settings.
Note: The Line 6 Monkey application also utilizes the FBV MIDI ports for its ability to detect and update
your connected FBV device. It is always recommended that you exit the Line 6 FBV Control, as well as
any MIDI/DAW software, before launching Line 6 Monkey.
Setting your Software to Receive Communication from your FBV MkII
Most MIDI and DAW applications have options within their “Preferences” or “MIDI Options” dialogs
where you’ll need to select your FBV MkII device and/or the FBV USB MIDI port to allow the
application to receive your FBV device’s commands. These options may be presented differently in
your MIDI/DAW software.

- In many cases this is all the configuration needed and the midi daw software will then receive your fbv midi commands some applications however offer additional options to choose the brand or type of midi controller device to communicate properly with it for applications that offer this you ll want to look for the option to choose a generic controller device further some applications also allow you to rename your midi device port names giving them more friendly titles see your midi software s help documentation for specific instructions you can also check the following sections to see examples of a few popular midi application examples 48
- In some midi and daw applications preferences or midi options you may see only a set of midi input settings rather than a specific control surface or midi control option as described above if your midi daw software s documentation instructs you to use this for selecting midi controller devices then you ll want to select the fbv midi port to which your controls are transmitting by default all your fbv mkii control assignments are transmitted to the fbv midi out port 1 but you can change this midi out port setting per control within the line 6 fbv control application s control properties list see page 3 3 48
- Midi input options in your software 48
- Some applications specifically offer a selector to choose one or more connected control surface or midi controller devices and you should first look to see if your software offers this type of option you should see 4 selectable options for your connected fbv mkii device one for each midi out port note the slight differences for how your fbv mkii midi out ports appear within computer operating systems for fbv express mkii you ll see express in place of shortboard in these titles 48
- You ll want to select the fbv midi out port to which your fbv controls are transmitting by default all fbv mkii control assignments are configured to transmit to the fbv midi out port 1 but you can change this midi out port setting per control within the line 6 fbv control application s control properties list see page 3 3 48
