Again, thank you all for writing!
Steve,
I sure would consider a device with an app via iRig or whatever. Do you mean WiFi from the pedalboard to the device? That would be the trick -- how to control it via pedals.
A low-cost micro processor like a arduino or a pi sound over my head without someone who's done it holding my hand.
Modifying/adding an old foot controller is an option but I need know it's been done successfully first.
Please let me know what you find out from the someone that you know with a programmable foot pedal.
Gordon & Lee T.,
Thanks for letting me know about the three-byte MIDI message problem. While I don't quite understand it yet, I'll keep that in mind. Would it also apply when using a tablet and iRig?
Lee T.,
I still would like to know more about what you mean by "extending the existing controls with a couple of wires."
I called around to determine which pedalboards can send specific predefined SysEx commands. So far, lots of no's and only one company said yes but, their product is upwards of $500. Too much.
I would still love to know if anyone here is already doing this on stage with any Casio.
Thanks again!
Please keep it coming and I'll let you know what else I find out.
Sacha
P.S. The delay time from the date messages are posted to when they appear on the board is substantial.
