PMC 10 allows you to send 16 prg ch + any nb of controler + any other
midi messages youll want to.
all those at pedal press and the same quantity at pedal release 
basicly you enter any nb of messages you'll needthe only limit is the
pmc memory 

I currently work with 123 patches and 20 banks  so there is no real
practical limit
The only pedal that could replace pmc10 in everything is the rocktron
all access
