Re: Looping footwear



I would love that! On a related note, I was talking to Jeff Kaiser a while 
back about a cool type of expression pedal concept. I was thinking of a 
hard 
plastic mat that had zones marked out on it. Basically, it would be like a 
touch sensitive computer screen, but capable of sending MIDI expression 
data. So, you would take your shoes off and leave your socks on, and 
rather 
than operating a pedal, you would slide your foot over the mat to change 
expression values. There could be two or more zones, for multiple 
controller 
#s.  And a fun feature would be an x/y axis grid, so that you could 
control 
that puck in Cycling 74's Hipno "hipnoscope"....where moving it around the 
x/y axis changes multiple parameters.
