Blackbox Looper + footpedal control

[mokomo]

It would be great if the following sort of functionality could be introduced:
Midi footpedal control to
1. switch the track recording source to be L or R mono or L+R stereo (allowing to switch between two inputs, with a config in the settings for levels)
2. start, stop track play/record, overdub, loop on stop record
3. select track, track up, track down midi
4. tap tempo
5. mutes/solos
etc


This would enable use of the Blackbox as a 16 track handsfree looper/recorder

I like this idea for recording stuff that is intensive, like scratching or playing a keyboard. Do midi foot switches exist?

[mokomo]

yes, there are lots of them readybuilt; and easy to DIY with an arduino and a few components.

I was thinking of having a few tracks of whatever samples playing away and be able to record guitar or vocals into other tracks using remote midi control

I've build a controller with an arduino micro that works on usb of the blackbox. Global midi assigns for record, overdub, undo, redo, track up/down would be nice.

I am super big supporter of this.

i really love live looping and am hoping to have the live looping capabilities of the Blackbox enhanced.

MIDI controls for arming channels and record, stop, auto toggle play will be really helpful.

That sounds like some very interesting features. We'll keep them in mind for a future release.

footpedal control for looping is my nr.1 on the wishlist!

+1 !!!

Midi : play , rec , stop , mute etc
Part of song ! ( By cc or note )
Just play with arrangement with foot controll it will be amazing for live perf

Lfo or automation , seq view like a bar drum , or view option by column , quantification midi bypass
Management project fonction ( folder, export, cut... , save with project ...)
usb data transfert

...

This product it's wonderful now ! Soon a monster !!!!

[underwood]

foot controllers that send note on/off are rar, so cc would be better.

[valeriodaniele]

+1, foot control is indispensable, if we would use Bb as a looper. I think looping features could be enhanced!

[jaggdl]

+1 For guitarists that use pedalboards with MIDI would be an amazing feature and could also open a new market for the Blackbox

[Quasimonastic]

Yes please to all these suggestions!

+1 for foot pedal control

[SandersLabus]

+1 on the foot control. If you were able to control the record button from the sustain pedal connected to a midi controller, this thing would become a performance beast for multi-instrumentalists.

EDIT: That should say the BB is *just a step away* from being a multi-instrumentalist performance beast.

+1 looper & foot-pedal support would result in yet another box the black one will replace in my studio.

[Philipp]

Absolutely, this would be so amazing!!

great idea...
