Guest newenham Posted November 19, 2002 Report Share Posted November 19, 2002 HiI love the idea of these DIY MIDI boxes. I want to make one for live performances, but since my hands are occupied when I play guitar, I need to make some sort of foot pedal. I was thinking of 8 or 16 on/off buttons to trigger loops in ableton live and/or other programs.I don't have much experience in building hardware - does anyone know if this is possible, or realistic?thanks!

TK. Posted November 21, 2002 Report Share Posted November 21, 2002 Sure, this is realistic. You could use the MIDIO128 with just a single DINX1 or DINX2 module for 8 or 16 buttons. This would come to about 25 EUR (w/o case, buttons & JDM PIC programmer). Or - if ableton reacts on program changes - this cheaper circuit could be interesting for you: http://www.ucapps.de/floorboard.htmlBest Regards, Thorsten.
