Small footprint Midi board

Hi,

Maybe the Peak FCB4N2:

Or the discontinued Axess MFC5.

Single Cable foot controller is here...my Midi Moose MOD

why don't you just use two dual button switches into the back of the kemper? use one to navigate up and down performances and the other to navigate up and down performance slots... takes up no space and cost very little..

Liquid Foot Mini+

The Midi Moose is 17" as I'm sure you know. To get smaller than that, all I can think of is Disaster Area Amps. If you don't see what you want, he will build it.

Cicognani (FBT) MF24 is a little bigger than Tech 21 midi mouse, and the price when I bought it (5 years ago) was 120 E.

If you are up to the challenge: you can make you own Midi board according to you own specifications. This will direct you in the right way: www.pekenverenmediaproducties.nl/projects

I have emailed disaster area amps about a custom pedal for the kemper to meet my particular needs. I too would like to have a small controller. I'm on the waiting list for the liquid foot+ jr+ , but we all know how long that can take and the price is definitely higher than what I would like. Liquid foot also never responded to an email that I sent them which also concerns me if I'm getting ready to purchase their product......If II hear back from disaster area amps I will let you know what they say.

I'm waiting on JR+ as well, since Oct. - FAMC have emailed me back (I send email every two weeks to see whats going on) - parts have arrived and looking forward to getting a shipping date soon.... but the wait has kinda sucked . FCB1010 w/ Uno chip in meantime no complaints but the JR+ smaller foot print and 3 (or 4) expression pedals will be great....

FYI Pete Turley makes 4 button footswitch for KPA - affordable option, quick turnaround - I have as back up and to use at home if I don't want to drag the MIDI board out... He goes by "okstrat" on this forum; petesprofiles.weebly.com

I've got nothing but praise for Matt's customer service at Disaster Area Amps. And they continually churn out product as seen on their Facebook Page

I'll check out okstrat's pedals....It's good to hear such a positive recommendation on the Disaster Area Amps as well. I'm gonna go follow them on facebook. I love the looks of their pedals. I'm after something that can utilize kpa's two way communication to be able to use the tuner and control 2 devices independently with a small footprint. I never dreamed of such a challenging search but I've enjoyed looking.

HOW independently do you want to control two devices? If you mean independent control of Program numbers/MIDI channels, there are few options.

The SoftStep (with MIDI adapter) is a good option. It is VERY programmable, with a little effort. Ground Control is another option (including a smaller, older, non-PRO version, if it has new enough firmware to support multiple devices.

@paults....I am trying to utilize simple program changes between kpa and vocal pedal. Just want to use one controller to use both devices, so nothing super complex....I had seen the softstep but had never read about it because i wanted something a little smaller, but after your advice I went and read about the controller and that will definitely be an option. I'm torn because I love alot of the bigger controllers like the behringer but my whole goal by going to kemper was to downsize. Therefore, I'm trying to make a compact pedal board (something like a pedaltrain jr size) that houses a TC Helicon voicelive play gtx, a line 6 wireless, an expression pedal, and a midi foot controller. I feel like I'm being super picky but I've always thought part of the fun is the hunt so I enjoy looking through alot of options and setups...I've been in the mind set of something the size of liquid foot+mini which would be my ideal controller if it would let me utilize the tuner function on the kpa but it doesn't have midi in, so I signed up for the wait list for the liquid foot+ jr+. I'm gonna continue to wait on disaster area amps to return email before I make any moves, but I really appreciate the advice on some other options.

I did a little reading on the WiKPA page and found that the softstep doesn't support 2 way communication with the kpa....Bummer. I was really considering this as an option but the tuner function is a must on the wish list....Let the search continue.

Why can't you just use the tuner on the Kemper by turning your volume to zero?

The bj devices tb5 will probably have tuner support really soon.
Mine left moscow for sweden a couple of days ago, hopefully I'll have it this coming week.

Regarding the whole "why need tuner in the midiboard" question, at least for me looking st the kemper screen is a no-go as the kemper is situated in one of our backlineracks standing behind the stage
