Ultra Simple Midi Controller for Source Audio Programmable EQ

Recommended Posts

Hello all

I'm on the hunt for a very simple midi pedal to engage the 4 channels of the Source Audio programmable eq. Each switch will function as on/off and will also override an engaged switch (IOW, if channel 2 is on and press channel 3, it engages without having to switch off channel 2).

I don't need midi thru or display panels. Just 4 switches with 4 LEDs. Do such pedals exist? I had one built back in South Africa but during a bought of idiocy, I ditched the eq and controller  (can I get an amen for stupidly selling gear only to buy it all back later!!!)

Any help would be awesome. Cheap, simple, and cheap hahaha

If it's just a standard MIDI controller (That I believe it would be) then the Tech 21 MIDI Mongoose could well be the kind of thing you need. I have one that I don't think I've ever got round to using out of the house. Super small, lightweight. Could be the kinda thing you need?

You could build one with an Arduino and some switches..

Thanks @Bigguy2017.  Much obliged - a mate made me one in 10 minutes, I remember that - but this is what he does all day, every day LOL.  But I will try cos I think I should :)

I like the idea of DIY - cos over £100 for something that I'll use rather less frequently than say a mute, is a lot of bank to shell out on.

I will see if I can figure it out - time to call in a favour or seven

@Dood: these are not cheap... the Tech 21 MIDI Mongoose I mean.. are you selling?

Hmm, yeah, you know what, ok. Ping me a PM and I'll come up with a lockdown friendly price.
