Re: Midi Footcontrol Problem

This isn't going to help you, but:   I'm looking for a midi footcontroller
and was thinking the yamaha looks very good (4 expr pedal inputs!--seems to
be the only one out there with that capability), so please let me know if
this delay problem turns out to be in the controller...
