the Lake Butler midigator, which i have and love - will send out ANY midi
signal, and does some HEX stuff i don't need or understand. But it will 
send
anything in the basic protocol, on/off, notes, prog change, ALL OFF, etc.
someone had posted a few weeks back on finding a lot fo those 
cheap/used....
they rule, and they look cool for the gear-gazers (like me) that wander up
to the stage after the show....

also - that MIDI MOUSE that tech 21 came up with - small as a dist. box but
send prog change only. then there's an obselete Digitech box (in the same
chassis as all  those digi - 2-pedal boxes... it can be programmed to have 
a
sequence of midi prog changes, that you can stepp thru at will.

perhaps, though, none of this blather has helped you !
