This doesn't change the IA switches, it is simply sending a bunch of CC messages when you press a preset switch. So, if you setup a preset to send only one CC message it would behave sort of like an IA switch except that it cannot operate in "momentary" mode where CC 127 is sent when the switch is down and CC 0 is sent when the switch is released. >> BUT those 4 jacks can also be used as a switch, either momentary or >> latching. >> >> So you could assign "pedal" 4 to be a switch, and to send MIDI CC# A >> on Channel B globally, and to send MIDI CC# C on Channel D per preset. Yes, but like the other guy he's talking about the 4 jacks for an external expression pedal or switch. You can save different CC assignments for these per-preset, but you only have four of them and you have to mess with 4 external pedals or switches. To make it really specific, what I would like to do (and what the AllAccess allows) is to assign IA switches 1-12 to CC numbers 0-11 in preset 1, then to CC numbers 12-23 in preset 2, then to CC numbers 24-35 in preset 3, etc. That way you can use the bottom row of preset switches to instantly select 6 banks of 12 completely different IA switches. What makes this confusing is that when people with my needs say "I need to send a lot of different CC messages" what most foot controller manufacturers think that means is "I need to send a lot of different CC messages at the same time when I press one switch". What it really means is "I need a lot of switches that send a single unique CC message". Jeff
