Good footswitch for the MOD Duo

Welcome to the forum, @AntiT.

  1. The midi inputs into Mod can be aggregated or separated, you can choose. Two inputs unto USB A can be problematic, but one USB and the other 5-pin DIN midi are not. If you’re using Tripleplay, you may get 2 inputs – if I’m not mistaken, one is “Tripleplay Controller” and the other is “Tripleplay [something else I don’t remember now]”. If possible, select only one so you don’t get double triggers (it happens with some VST synths.) Also, block channel 8 active sensing completely.

  2. Midi mapping with MOD is as straightforward as it is with any DAW software: click map, move the switch, and it’s mapped. As to the MP-100 footswitch and what it can do, you will need to check its manual.

There are other options for footswitches you may consider: Behringer’s tried and tested FCB1000, Morningstar MC6, etc. There has been a long discussion about the Midi Chocolate pedal.

Good luck.
