Egnater 8 Button Footswitch?

[dfrattaroli]

Sorry to have to ask this but the "search" function here doesn't let you use "M4".

Is there an Egnater 8 button footswitch that can be used with the M4? I know the E2 will have one. Now that I've split my rig up I could use a simple foot controller for the M4. Is there something simple on the market that I could use?

Thanks.

Dave

Any idea on the price Jeff?

Heh?

Eggy 8 switcher would just be a midi PC 1-8.

why not just grab a cheap 1-10 midi PC controller, and use buttons 1-8?

dig?

Label the two extra buttons "FUN" and "BEER".

I think in an effort to keep a pedalboard compact as can be, and for those of us like me that don't really use midi EXCEPT for the footswitch, the 8 button is a great idea. Keep it simple.

Yes. I'm still afraid of MIDI. hahaha. JK.

MIDI is our friend Nick Unless you just really like tap dancing!

Totally get it. Can you suggest one?

 

[dfrattaroli]

Actually I think I'm going to just use my GCX/GCP for the loops and get something like a Rocktron Midi Mate for my Axe Fx.

ADA MC1 - ~~$40?? or so.

I would say ADA MPC, but my M4 doesn't activate it power-wise. the current draw is too high on the MPC.

Oh and Nick...don't forget that your 4-button footswitch IS MIDI!

hahahaha..so you are already using midi!

You're using phantom power for your MC-1? I have an MC-1 as well. I'm using a 7 pin midi cable, but I have to use an adapter to power it....won't work otherwise. I thought maybe it was a compatibility issue. I guess it's just broke.

WE use the MC-1 in the shop for testing the switching with cable power.

Nope. It's either adapter or look for a different pedal.
