So, I tried saving each preset with my Yamaha FC-7 expression pedal plugged into Expression 1 of the FSM foot pedal to no success.
I made sure that I moved the volume pedal to 100% then saved each preset. After saving, the FSM pedal board still wants to save the preset volume; in relation to the pedal position, at about 75%. This can be very disconcerting. The volume will get louder than the preset has been saved at and that is not good in my opinion.
I tried; per the FSM manual to set the volume using the "hard" value (controller value 75) and the volume pedal stopped working. I will create a support ticket with H&K and see if this is something that can be fixed via a firmware update. They may say that the FSM is designed to work this way but I don't like it. I think you look like an idiot if you can't control your volume!
This may be the expression pedal that I am using that is the issue. I will include this idea in my H&K support ticket. Maybe they designed it to work with a specific pedal and just forgot to tell us? I think I will go back to using my EB Junior volume pedal. It worked like a champ. It never went to 125% volume!
