RE: New MIDI footpedal (MFC10) and EDP.

John-

I'm not sure that i've fully got my arms around what makes a switch a
"momentary" one or not.  It seems like you need to be able to send a NoteOn
and a NoteOff in a single button press?  I'm not fully sure on that one, 
but
i'm hoping to hear more on this list.  I'll try searching the archives
tomorrow.

cheers,
jim.

James,

Does the MFC10 allow you to set the foot switches to
act as momentary switches? This would be necessary
to control the EDP, whether using notes or cc. I'm
assuming it does since it's capable of sending midi
notes. Maybe there's an extra programming step to
tell the MFC10 switches to behave as momentary?

Sorry, that's all I can think of.

John
