  I'm looking for a 4 switch foot pedal where I can program different sounds/audio files for each pedal - start/stop each loop with each switch - and change the bank of files in each switch easily.

  any way of doing this?

  there's loop pedals and there's midi pedals you could use on a laptop with something like ableton live

  • that's pricey, are you saying I could use midi pedals + ableton on the cheap?– doesnotexist1/3

    yeah just look for some midi pedals, you could get a smaller one with two pedals instead but you said four– oozie2/3

  all different types of MIDI switches out there. Not gonna get too much cheaper than oozie's post. And with BOSS, you're in pretty good hands.

  You know anyone who is into constructing equipment? You can get some killer custom stuff built.

  Like morilla said, there are a lot of electronic muisicians who build and/or mod their gear. Maybe post an ad for one of them?
