Folder. The Toe Switch additionally has a “hard-wired” function to toggle your FBV Shortboard

MkII “Pedal 1” function between the “Pedal Wah” and “Pedal Vol” assignments.

• Pedal Wah - Adjusts the “Position” knob for Wah models within some of the POD Farm 2 Tone

Presets. In a few Tone Presets, one pedal may also control the Bender model’s “Position” knob,

for some cool pitch bending action.

• Pedal Volume - Adjusts both the Tone A Level and Tone B Level faders within the Mixer View

simultaneously. If your current POD Farm 2 conﬁguration is a single Tone, then only the Tone A

Level fader is controlled. Note that this is a “Global” MIDI assignment and only exists as a “pre-

conﬁgured” MIDI assignment in the POD Farm 2 standalone application and not in the Plug-In.

(However, you can use MIDI Learn to create this and other Global MIDI assignments manually

with your FBV Express MkII!)

With these settings made on your FBV MkII, exit the FBV Control application and proceed with the

steps to conﬁgure POD Farm 2 standalone application or Plug-In.

POD Farm 2 Standalone Application - MIDI Input Conﬁguration

To use your FBV MkII device with the POD Farm 2 standalone application, you’ll ﬁrst need to conﬁgure

POD Farm 2 to receive MIDI from your connected FBV MkII device’s MIDI port(s).

If you want to control POD Farm 2 Plug-In, please proceed to “POD Farm 2 Plug-In - MIDI Input

Conﬁguration” on page 4•8

. MIDI control of POD Farm 2 Plug-In requires conﬁguring MIDI settings

within your DAW software.

• Launch the POD Farm 2 Preferences dialog and go to the MIDI tab. Here you will be able to

select any connected MIDI controller device or port. Note that you’ll see the four FBV MIDI

Out ports named differently, depending on your computer’s operating system:

Preferences - MIDI dialog on Mac OS® X

Preferences - MIDI dialog on Windows® 7 & Windows® Vista
