7 THE CONFIG MENU
The Cong Page of the FC Controllers menu contains various options. Some of these are detailed elsewhere in
this manual, but the following table collects them all in one place for reference.
Reminder: All changes in the FC Controllers menu take effect immediately with no need to store.

PARAMETER Description
Press & Hold Timeout
0.25–2.00 seconds
This sets the time limit before a Hold function is red, beginning
from the moment the switch is depressed. When a Hold function
is assigned, a Tap function res if the switch is released before
the press and hold timeout elapses. See illustration, p. 11.
Master Layout Menu
ENABLED/DISABLED
In its default state, the Master Layout Menu (aka “MLM”, aka “Layout 9”)
provides access to the other eight layouts (see p.11). The standard
way to load the MLM is to perform a special “switch combo” step
where you press the lower right switch with your heel, then, while still
holding it, press the upper right switch with your toe. This combination
can be , leaving you to navigate the FC without the MLM, or
perhaps to use a dedicated footswitch to display it (see p.32).
Per-Preset Switch Overrides
ENABLED/DISABLED
The FC allows any Axe-Fx III preset to override the function of any FC
footswitch in any layout. This offers extreme flexibility, making it possible to
handle exceptions easily in an otherwise global system. This option allows
you to DISABLE Per-Preset overrides so only the global switch functions
appear. See “Per-Preset Method 1: Overrides” on p. 34 for details.
Bank Size
1–12
The FC’s “Preset: Select in Bank” function (see p.26) automatically maps
presets across special footswitches in your layouts, making them available in
dynamic groups as you step through “Banks”. The FC-6 defaults to 4 presets per
bank. The FC-12 defaults to 10 presets per bank. The Bank Size number should
correspond directly to the number of “Preset: Select in Bank” switches used.
Preset Number/
Scene Number in
Main Display
ON/OFF
The main display of the FC shows both Preset number and name, and
Scene number and name. This option allows you to individually hide these
numbers, so a greater number of characters can be dedicated to the names.
Ring Intensity
1–50%, 25–100%
Each FC footswitch has its own segmented LED ring. The rings change
color to show switch function, and change between two brightness
levels (and “off”) to show switch states. These parameters allow
you to adjust the intensity of both dim and bright ring states.
Control Switch Link These six parameters can be used to link two or more Control Switches
(see p.36) in a mutually exclusive group. The single exclusive group is global
and affects all instances of the designated Control Switches across all layouts.
To join any Control Switch to the group, set its value here to “Exclusive”.
