Yes, that's an idea but that's not quite the solution in mind. A
physical controller - best a MIDI CC assiginment to FC (Foot
Controller) is whats needed - not SysEx. Furthermore, MIDI CC is much
more efficient than SysEx which eats up a considerable amount of MIDI
bandwidth - and the AN1x is already top heavy when it comes to SysEx ;-
