Hi,
I’m about to embark on my first midi based project & looking to build my own Midi Foot Controller to allow me to send Midi Commands to a Guitar Effects processor (an Fractal Audio AxeFX 2) and was wondering if any of the Teeny USB boards would be suitable.
Examples of possible commands are:
Preset increment (+1)
Preset increment (+10)
Preset decrement (-1)
Preset decrement (-10)
BANK increment (+1 - start at 1st preset of new bank)
BANK increment (+1 - start at same preset number of new bank as currently on in current bank)
BANK decrement (-1)
BANK decrement (-1 - start at same preset number of new bank as currently on in current bank)
Scene switching
Effect toggling (ie ON/OFF)
Inputs would be:
10 to 20 momentary switches.
1 to 2 Analogue inputs for Volume Pedals, Wah Pedal etc.
Output would be:
5 pin Din midi OUT port
Would also maybe look at some point in future to integrate an LED display too (to display current BANK#, PRESET # & PRESET NAME) – not a deal breaker.
I assume the USB port on these boards is to allow programming of the Midi CPU – would that be correct?
Are you able to advise pls.
I’m fairly new to this so any help you could offer would be great pls.
Thanks
