Digitech Control One, Johnson J-12

Hi Everyone,

since there is still much discussion about foot controllers for the KPA, i would like to know if there might be a way to make these special kind of foot controllers usable for the KPA...

Please consider that these controllers do not use MIDI, but a specific protocol by Digitech, which was said to be way faster. It is also was bidirectional and phantom powered. Every time i power up my old Johson Millennium JM250 Head i could simply cry how good the controller is. It switches extremely fast and the display which reads the preset names is a great help. It also displays the tuner data.

Easy:
Johnson midi out >>> KPA midi in....

Sorry, couldn't resist

mDan is working to a project called Kempline, allowing the Line6 FBV series pedalboard to control the KPA.
Unfortunately the KPA doesn't send any information so, at this moment, you can have unidirectional midi communication only.
I hope they'll be working on this too.
C'mon mr. Kemper, we need more complete firmwares!!!!
