Re: [sdiy] potentially dumb question - MIDI chord pedals??

[Roman]

	isn't it possible to use Midi-Yoke or other MIDI software to trigger any MIDI events by single note-ons? I'd say it's possible to find such a tool. 
	If I had more time, I'd make a special PIC keybaord encoder with "chord memory" button, although it would be rather tricky to play a chord on pedelboard consisting of more than 2 notes. Another option would be to press a special button, like bypass switch on effect boxes, and while it's activated, all notes that are sequentially played, will form a chord when the button is released. 
	IIRC someone on this list has recently done that, with beautifull wooden case and cute yellow control panel.

Temat: [sdiy] potentially dumb question - MIDI chord pedals??

   Hi everyone,   I am wondering if there exists a pedal board that one could program to send out MIDI data for playing three or four note chords, one chord per pedal.  It would be laid out like a guitarist's effects pedal board, but each pedal 'button' would sound a user-programmed chord via MIDI.  The use would be similar to those chord buttons one finds on little Casio keyboards, or on a accordion, to allow someone who is standing up playing a bass or guitar to play padding chords with the feet.     Does such a thing a thing exist, or would it be hard to make one (PIC, etc.) ?     thanks,   Dave
