Today I was having some trouble with RSI in my thumb from hitting command too much. I put together a footswitch to hopefully sort it all out. If anyone else is interested, the instructions are at https://github.com/jonhiggs/fs01.

A super quick project that you should be able to put together in around an hour*

*Assuming you have working tools to build the code and write the hex file to the Teensy.

I like the keymap! How about more than one footswitch for multiple mods? I'm thinking of pianos, which often have three. But then I remember how many feet humans typically have for simultaneous presses…

When I get around to finishing the ML62, I might think about making another to switch to the function layer. For now, CTRL is mapped to capslock and I don't use option very much so I don't really have much need for another one.

But having said that, it would be easy to run a cable out the side of one pedal and into another to give me two, or three, or twenty-eight.

Forget about pianos, organs had this interface aced since Bach.


Wonder if I could do this with my keyboards…

Sounds like something Rick Wakeman would feel right at home in.
