Btw. another issue might be that the OP perhaps wants one foot switch to start and stop, but the quasi default is that there are different switches/commands for start and stop and stop might provide an option to continue playing from the start position. So preparing a qwerty-keyboard might need a script to change the command between play and stop after each usage of the footswitch. Do those USB MIDI foot controllers work with Linux, IOW is it possible to allocate MIDI commands to the switches, without the need to run Windows/Mac software for doing this? _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
