Cycling through devices with foot switch

picur8572 · #1 September 7th, 2011, 12:05

Hi!

I'd like to use a foot pedal to cycle through the loaded devices within a project. Is it possible? What should I do? Connect the pedal to the Sustain or Expression socket on my keyboard then set up Target Next Track to this controller in Additional Remote Overrides?

This would work, but only in one direction. Unfortunately, Target Next Track doesn't wrap around -- so when you reach the last device, you're stuck.

To make this work, you'd need two pedals -- one to select the next device, and one to to select the previous one.

Thanks for the help, one-way switching is right what I want
