Beatheavy Posted March 12, 2002 Share Posted March 12, 2002 I'm looking to find a way to trigger samples from an Akai s5000. My band has no keyboard player and my drummer is overwhelmed with the responsibility of triggering up to 10 seperate events in one song. So i'd like to help him out. Can anyone suggest a midi foot controller to use. Would an Rocktron All Access work. I use the All access w/ a Boogie Triaxis and a replefex. Thanx alot ATOMIX! http://www.abc.net.au/common/logos/whtblkgrn.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rog951 Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 How 'bout a Roland OctaPad? It's not a footswitch, but it looks much cooler than any footswitch AND it'll send out MIDI "note on" messages all day long. It's always fun to whack stuff with a stick! Also, I know there are some MIDI triggers out there (Fatar might've made 'em at one point?) that are set up like an old Taurus pedal...kinda like the bass pedals on organs...they're like a piano keyboard for your feet. I'm not sure a MIDI foot controller like yours can be configured to send "note on" messages. They're usually just meant to send patch change info (I think). I have an old ART MIDI footswitch and I'm pretty sure it won't trigger notes. Let us know if you find anything... None more black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sysexguy Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 Lake Butler Midi Mitigator, I don't know if it's made anymore but it works. Check out GP archives for Vernon Reid inteviews, he used it for the samples in "Cult of Personality" among other things. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
