[sdiy] MIDI channel footswitch changer gizmo ..

[Jean-Pierre Desrochers]

Hi all,

I own a DIY MIDI bass pedal that sets it’s MIDI channel on power up.
You press one of the first 16 keys (2 octaves pedal board) while powering up
and that’s the MIDI channel that remains. Ok.

But what if I need to change the MIDI channel on the fly while playing ??

I tried to find a footswitch gizmo that would have MIDI IN/OUT
that I could connect the bass pedal MIDI OUT to the gizmo MIDI IN and set/change
the gizmo MIDI channel using its footswitches then the incoming MIDI channel
would be overridden by the gizmo’s channel  and this one would use its channel
number for my pedal board..

But no luck to find this type of MIDI ‘interface’..
So far I’m thinking about building one..
Any clue for this type of gadget to buy ?

 

Cheers,

Jean-Pierre
