Troubleshooting
The batteries that are supplied
with the unit is for temporary
use, intended primarily for
testing this unit.
When running on power
supplied by an RRC2 IN
device, the power is switched
on regardless of the position of
the POWER switch.
Although the FC-300’s EXP
pedals are adjusted for optimal
performance when shipped
from the factory, extended use
over time and under certain
usage conditions may result in
the pedals going out of
adjustment.
