Hi Bernhard-
I think you shouldn't bother spending more time on that. It doesn't work 
reliably. A couple of people tried to get it to work in the past, but 
could 
never get it. We designed the possibility in to the Echoplex from the 
beginning, but since it wasn't a real feature of the product it was never 
really tested.

Isn't there some company that makes single function midi pedals, with just 
one switch? Maybe you could get something like that to send the command 
for 
the parameter button. Or use presets and a midi pedal to send the program 
changes.
