Re: MIDI continuous controller ideas

The Peavey PC1600 can probably do this.  It has a footpedal
input, as well as switches, and the user can program different
mappings for the footpedal (as well as the 16 sliders).  Then
the only task is to see if the program number can be set using
a footswitch.

The PC1600 definitely can't do this, I'm not sure of the latest
model, the PC1600X, so something like that.  The Deopfer Regelwerk
does have a fader mode to match this.  It is pretty expensive (I'm
guessing 600-800, but has 24 sliders, and an analog-style sequencer.
