I've just made my own, using a £10 ebay marshall footswitch as the
basis and an arduino chip to control it - total cost about £40 and
it's fully programmable.

This was my photoshop mockup

and this is the reality (so far)

I'm now wrestling with the subleties of creating a matrix of
footswitches so I can add more functionality to it.

As with the other thread, it would be good to find pressed steel
containers so I could position the holes only where I wanted them -
those on the marshall were too central.



All the best,
