If you wanted an instantaneous 8va change you could do that too. Eg, 
if you have foot a foot controller (or another controler with off/on 
CC functionality), set one switch to a CC# of your choice [perhaps 
whatever N is set to if its already in many presets to control pitch]. 
You'd have to tweak the patchcord so that the switch on corresponds 
with and octave jump--unless the off state of the switch is 
programmable.
