newbe questions about program recall !!

[alexglvr]

Hello,

I am working on a midi pedalboard for guitar effect switching.

The idea is to have presets memorized in it, regrouped in banks of 10.

10 switchs will permit to select the wanted program in a bank, and two other switches (Up and Down) will permit to select the wanted bank. (It is that way most of guitar pedal board work)

Do i have to change the core program for that?

I am ok with the need of :

- a core module

- a Din for the switches

- a Dout for the leds

- a Ain for an optional external expression pedal

I would like to be able to define the presets of each banks directly on the pedal board (without the use of a computer).

Therefore i think i need the LCD module to be able to do that, don't I?

Moreover, do i need the Bankstick to memorised my presets? I want them to be kept even is the board is not powered...

Each preset will have to command up to five midi devices. Is it a pb?

At least, i have to have in it 4 commanded switches to replace my amp control. How can i do that?

the midi device commanded by the external expression pedal (analog) can change according to the preset...

here is an example of a preset:

- Switch1 on

- Switch2 off

- Switch3 on

- Switch4 off

- external midi device 1: prog114

- external midi device 2: no change

- external midi device 3: prog 10

- external midi device 4: no change

- expression pedal command the whawha effect on the device 3.

Sorry for all these questions, and this long message...

Thank you for your help.

Hi Alex,

currently there isn't an application available which fits exactly your needs. But I guess that it could be easily programmed with the SDCC wrapper. Or maybe somebody has already implemented a similar floorboard application, which could be easily adapted?
