Re: [AN1x] Using a foot for scene switching?

2006-09-18 by Ed Edwards

Lou,

I would prescribe a $35 Yamahaha FC-7 variable pedal for relief of your 
headache.
1.  Works great.
2.  Allows morphing between scenes.
3.  It's cool.
4.  It's known to work correctly because I've used one live for the last 
6 years.

The morphing trick is coolest, but as in any 2 scenes chosen for 
morphing, the parameters have to be correct for the morphing to be useful.

But to use it to quickly switch between scenes, just mash it all the way 
down or up and there you are.
