RE: Unidentified sub actually MIDI peds



I actually read about this delay after i had already purchased the pedal,
and i must say that i don't notice that in mine, so i thought that might
have been on individual units, rather than the 'rule' for the device.
Perhaps it IS there, but i don't notice it, because by my design, my 
looping
strategy involves creating slightly oblong loops, rather than 'perfect'
ones.  Who's to say which came a dictated first, the strategy or the
'delay'?  : )

I guess i'd have to do a side-by-side test of the two pedals, or is there
another way of confirming this 'delay' which i have not noticed to this
point?

cheers,
jim.

the Yamaha MFC-10 has a delay from when you hit the switch to when
the MIDI instruction is sent. 
Almost 100mS, which is quite a lot!

This was confirmed by Yamaha customer support UK,
who also confirmed that Yamaha had absolutely no interest
in the subject.

For most loopers, the delay makes the pedal unworkable.

I have the MFC-10 next to me now, I had to get the 
Behringer pedal for the EDP.
