Totally agree Steve! I would like a simple footswitch to go forward through the banks - set up song by song, so I just hit the footswitch to move onto the next bank/song! I'm following this thread to see if there's any progress.
Hi Andrei - yes that appears to answer my question on this topic - I have the USB Pro Mk2 which doesn't support a footswitch.
Also - instructions/tutorial on how to set that up! Please!
hey guys, I believe this is already presents in EMU. See it's manual page 10 (says only DMXis allows you to have footswitch) and 18 (tells you how to use footswitch). Isn't it what you're looking for?
Still awaiting any word from EMU on being able to control the BANKS in EMU with a USB foot switch programed to a key stroke. I can advance the PROGRAM side with a footswitch, but I must advance the Bank with a mouse on stage.
It would be great if another key, say the Left Arrow, would advance the PROGRAM side. My song list is on the PROGRAM side and the verse, chorus, solo, etc light effects are under the BANK side.
Hey Steve, this year was presented EMU hardware, it works with footswitch. As you said DMXIS is out of production and that's true but seems like EMU hardware is the successor with being more advanced. I have already one and it does work good.
Steve, got a question, how do you advance your programs with a footswitch? Do you have DMXIS or EMU hardware? I just can't imagine how else it could be achieved.

Currently, the down arrow key will advance through Banks and Progams when the cursor populates the corresponding field, however it would be a game changer if there were keys that independently advanced through Banks and Programs regardless of cursor position so a USB muti-pedal footswitch could be programmed to advance through an entire performance without the need to mouse over to the Banks field to advance to the next "song" and then back to the first Program to start the light show for that song. It is difficult to juggle an instrument and a light show when you have to manipulate the laptop between every song to get a footswitch to advance the Bank and then again to advance the Programs. Key commands for advancing Banks and Programs in EMU would be a GIANT advancement and a total game changer for live performers that do not run MIDI signaled tracks to queue EMU changes. This would be HUGE!
