RE: Tech 21 MIDI Moose?



Hey Loren you might have missed my for sale blurb a few weeks ago but my
barely used roland, GFC50, is laid out like the midi moose with 5 preset
switches and a switch to change to the next 5 presets. It also can be
battery powered, run on a standard psa120 adapter, and additionally has two
1/4 jacks for bank up and down, two momentary 1/4 cc jacks and two
expression cc 1/4 inch jacks on the back.
 Though the CC# are fixed #7 for volume,#16 for exp 2,#64 for ctl 1, and 
#80
for ctl 2. However this shouldn't be a problem if you can assign CC's in
sooper looper. Like the Midi mouse, its small but has more real time
flexibility if you want to use expression pedals, and frankly, I can't
understand why any one wouldn't want to:)

Subject: Tech 21 MIDI Moose?

Folks,

Thanks to a little coaching from Jesse, I got my GI-20 working as a MIDI
control for SooperLooper running in 
Ableton Live on my Mac. Works great and I'm in the game. Can say enough 
good
things about SooperLooper!

I'm looking for fewer moving parts, though, for performance. Also looking
for something that's reasonably 
priced, small, and tough. And I'm not averse to using the mouse and 
keyboard
for some of the functions in the 
software. Basically looking for record/overdub and undo as a minimum set of
pedal functions, add will add 
others as real estate allows. I know many folks are using the FCB1010 with
the uno chip, looks good but I'm 
looking to go smaller. 

The Tech 21 MIDI Moose has caught my eye. Is anyone using this? If so, 
how's
it working for you? Any other 
suggestions?

Thanks,
