2078.0. "MIDI controlled switch" by STKSMA::HALL (Take care of your MIDI) Sat Aug 12 1989 08:11

    I looking for a small box (or anything) which gives me the possibility
    to send a Program Change into it and have som relays (or other
    electronic switches) activated.
    
    I have a Leslie Simulator with a footswitch to control 
    ON/OFF/TREMOLO/CHORUS and I would like to do this over MIDI.
    
    Any suggestions

2078.1Switch from bitchin' metal to, like, total jazz.TORQUE::BAILEYConstants aren't. Variables don't.Sat Aug 12 1989 14:369
    There are a number of these units.  Prentend you're a guitar player
    when you enter a music store and you will have an easier time finding
    them.
    
    Sholtz R&D makes device (call the Octapus, I think) which provides
    eight MIDI controlled ``foot switches''.  I think Kitty Hawk (another
    guitar electronics company) makes something comparable.

	Two or three months ago, Electronic Musician had a kit/project
	for a midi controller (channel select & 8 notes - on/off only).
	They had a PC board & parts available. You might want to look into
	recent issues (I was looking at this for a lighting system
	controller, since it can drive a relay, or any other switching
	device).
