The lack of replies from your previous post was probably due to
everyone (like myself) not having a clue what to suggest. There are
very few midi pedal boards within a reasonable price-range, and all of
the ones that have sufficient programming power are double row switches
(at least to my knowledge).
You'll probably have to customise/build something to your own needs. To
get you on the right track, the Roland FC200 has 6 inputs in the back
of it where you can attach external footpedals or controllers, and can
assign them to various PC controls - however, the FC200 does not allow
CC messages and is limited to PC messages of 1-99.... (I don't know the
midi specs of the EDP, but this pedal was totally useless to control
the Repeater).
Does anyone on the list know of a midi box, similar to an electronic
drum master hub that has a number of inputs whereby Ian can customise
his own pedal board? I've tried googling for information, but have come
up with nothing.
Just an idea.... good luck :)
