RE: Midi pedal for EDP

["Glenn Poorman" <glenn.poorman@autodesk.com>]

At the bare minimum, you need a unit with at least as many
buttons as the EFC7 (preferably more). The buttons need to
be programmable and all of the buttons need to be able to
send either CC or Note On/Off messages. Plus the buttons
need to be able to perform as momentary switches.

Note: The FC-50 will NOT work with the EDP.
