Combination of KFC and external MIDI controller possible?

i'm planning to organize my rigs with Performance mode. I would like to have one Performance for each song.

A Performance should be started by MIDI-PC from an external Controller (actually setlist maker, a wonderful tool). The Slots inside the Performance should be switched by the KFC or other foot Controller like Uno4kemper. Is this a valid combination, or can i run into Problems because KFC and external Controller both want to communicate via Midi cable with KPA?

Do i understand right, that i cannot connect an external midi Controller with midi cable to KPA, if midi-in on KPA is connected with a Foot Controller like Uno4Kemper?

This means i have to wait until KFC arrives, which hopefully connects via RJ45?

You would need a midi merge device to combine more then one device to the input of the KPA midi in.

Midi merge

Oh, i didn't know these Kind of devices. This will help me if KFC will not arrive in the next three months
But i would prefer very much KFC to avoid this additional Infrastructure.
Are there some rumors about KFC release date?

You could also try Popeye's with the external MIDI controller

Sorry, but what is popeye's?

seems to be a U.S. joke
