I have no idea. the switches should be fine, the expression pedals might more complicated - depends how they work.

The physical space inside the J12 might pose a problem aswell. You'd have to crack it open and work out where you're going to mount the MB modules.

I think there will be enough space inside the J12. It's pretty big.. :)

The expr pedals use the same technique as the Behringer. (LED with light sensitive receiver; a piece of plastic with a gradient on the pedal that moves in font of the LED - sensor receives less/more light and transmits more/less voltage accordingly)

Yep. I also suggest getting the kits so you don't have to shop around for all the parts.

What kit would be best and most complete for my needs?

Thanks for your help!!

|I will gut the Johnson controller.. Want to dedicade it to MIDI controlling. I would only use the momentary switches and expression pedals which work like the ones in a Behringer BCF1010.

You think it would be possible?

I was thinking of getting a prebunred and programmed PIC from the AVI Showtech site. Than it wouldn't be to hard to build it am I right?

Hey! Great topic and great info!

I have a question.. I have a Johnson J12 footcontroller which has two expression pedals and twelve footswitches (momentary). I'm wondering if it would be possible to somehow modify this controller into a MIDI controller..? It holds a 27C256 PROM and works through a 7-pin cable which also supplies for it's power.

If it would be possible to reprogram the 27C256 PROM that would be very nice, if not, I give up and will get myself a Behringer or something.. :)

[floorboard midi controller - 2 expr pedals, 12 switches]

Hi guys..!

have been strolling around here for quite some time now and decided to take up on an old project of mine. I have this housing for a floorboard midi controller I'd like to use. What I want to use it for is: two expression pedals (for continuous controlling parameters) and 12 switches (2 for bank up/down, 10 for on/off switching).

I really need some help from someone who could point me into the right direction where I should start, which controller I'd need and maybe an indication of how much programming is needed..? :)

Thanks for any help! I hope I'm clear enough on this.. :console:
