Re: [CZsynth] Re: Transmit SysEx via PedalBoard to CZ-101

2016-04-15 by Daniel Forró

Yes, this would be possible. MIDI foot pedals usually have limited  
functions. But all of them can send Program Change and select memories  
on some more advanced processor connected between the MIDI foot pedal  
and the instrument. Something like Yamaha MEP-4 or Peavey 1600/1600x.

Still all this is unnecessarily complex (and also expensive) solution  
in the comparison with just simple pressing buttons directly on the  
CZ, when we want to select patches, do transposition or even change  
some parameter value.
