a midi foot controller sending note on messages will do the trick if correctly configured.
i made myself one with an arduino, but something like Keith McMillen 12 step with the midi din out box should do.

so been looking at the 12 step and the soft step, they look like they might do what i want but considering the price would you know of a cheaper one? say, the beringer fcb-1010 or the midi moose?

thanks again!

there's a foot switch parameter in the system that allows you to step thru the patterns, i'm not sure if it allows instant pattern switching like using the pads or it just changes at the end of the current pattern..

yes, think it only gives you the start and stop right?
hmm, tricky one! still havnt found an easy way to do this...
would love to hear about what more, cheap, smallish pedals could do this for me.
