Manufacturer's Description for MIDI Solutions Pedal Controller MIDI Generator
The MIDI Solutions Pedal Controller accepts any expression pedal and generates continuous MIDI data based on the pedal's position.
The Pedal Controller accepts an expression pedal (such as the Yamaha FC7 or Roland EV-5 or any potentiometer connected to a 1/4 in. stereo phone plug) as an input and generates continuous MIDI data based on its position. The Pedal Controller may be inserted inline at any point in the MIDI data stream, allowing you to send continuous controller information to any device in your MIDI setup.
The Pedal Controller can be programmed to send:
Aftertouch The Pedal Controller can be programmed to send Aftertouch in response to the pedal movement. The MIDI Channel is programmable, as well as the minimum and maximum values sent by the Pedal Controller.
Pitch Bend The Pedal Controller can be programmed to send Pitch Bend in response to the pedal movement. The MIDI channel is programmable, as well as the minimum and maximum values sent by the Pedal Controller.
Control Change The Pedal Controller can be programmed to send a Control Change message in response to the pedal movement. The Control Change number is selectable, as is the MIDI channel, and the minimum and maximum values sent by the Pedal Controller.
System Exclusive The Pedal Controller can be programmed to send a System Exclusive message with one byte that varies in response to the pedal movement. The System Exclusive message can be a maximum of 20 bytes in length, the byte of the message that varies is selectable, as are the minimum and maximum values sent.
The Pedal Controller has a MIDI Echo parameter that is selectable on/off.
The Pedal Controller accurately tracks the position of the pedal or potentiometer connected to it. Small fluctuations are eliminated when the pedal is in a stationary position and no extraneous messages are sent out. When the pedal is moved slightly, the Pedal Controller will send an update even if its position has only changed by a single value. Many control wheels or knobs only update themselves every two or every four values, resulting in coarser control, and sometimes zipper noise.
Another unique feature of the Pedal Controller is its ability to add a variable amount of curvature to the response of the pedal. This allows you to correct for pedals with nonlinear responses, or to add greater response at one end of the pedal compared to the other.
The Pedal Controller is programmed by sending it MIDI System Exclusive messages (see FAQs - Programming). Once programmed, its settings are retained even after power is removed. The Pedal Controller can be reprogrammed with new settings as often as needed.
The Pedal Controller is MIDI-powered, and requires no batteries or power supply to operate with most MIDI products (see FAQs - Power and FAQs - LED for more information). A MIDI indicator LED lights up when the product is powered and flashes when MIDI data passes through it.
