I have two of them, use them as volume pedals all the time. Make sure you're using a stereo (trs) cable on output 2, and you have it switched to CV mode. It's set up like the yamaha pedal, so depending what you're using it on you might need bruce's adaptor

Bobby,



I know very little about the Behringer pedal.  The fact that it
doesn't work in your situation is NOT a guarantee that it's
'Yamaha-wired.'  In fact, I suspect that it's not:  Yamaha is the
only manufacture that uses their wiring scheme.  (The CX-3 pedal
was made by Yamaha.  Even old Korg gear cannot use an FC7
directly.



The Yamaha wiring is uses the Ring for the pot wiper (and the Tip
for the top of the pot), while most of the rest of the world uses
the Tip for the wiper.  However, neither wiring is completely
compatible with a standard CV pedal, which is usually mono (TS).



You're on your own, I'm afraid.  The good news is that there are
only three wires, so that only means a few combinations.






Regards,

I bought a Behringer FCV dual mode foot controller
(either stereo volume or CV). It's unwired - requires a
TRS cable which I also got. It looks just like the Yamaha
FC7 and works just like it - it doesn.'t At least, my
controllers don't see it, though it works fine on my Korg
CX-3. Well hell, I already have two FC7's (and the Korg
pedal) around here somewhere. I know you make adapters,
but since there isn't a cable attached I'll try to build
my own. I found one posting from a guitarist that uses it
with his old GR300 guitar synth,  I thought I'd run it by
you for veracity. . .




"This pedal
works fantastic as a VCF controller. Built like a tank
and has the harder-to-find 50k pot. Using the CV out,
build a cable using TSR connectors. F100 (use a right
angle connector) White = Ring Red = Ground GR300 end
(Straight connector) White = Ground Red = Tip". . .





Does is sound right to you?

Thank you, Obi Wan.
