Same here. I recently went back, from a pedal board based looping set up, 
to 
a rack based system and have the Repeater in the top space of a 12 space 
SKB 
rack, where, when seated in front of it, I have access to all the digital 
tweakage needed - changing feedback, jumping from track to track, cueing 
loops, etc.  Until Electrix implements a midi pedal initiated fade 
function, 
or visual cues as to where the "feedback" level is when controlled via 
midi, 
I'm perfectly happy with the 3 button footswitch and hands on tweakage.  -
