Please, I've been studying to produce footswits and loop pedals controlled via Midi with the Arduino.
Could someone tell me, what to study in these cases?
And which MIDI banks should I use for Arduino programming?
Thanks in advance!
Try one of the following projects to get an understanding of how to use MIDI with Arduino, then you will have a good foundation to create your own project:
It may help using the word "Expression Pedal"
Parameter Control With Footpedals https://www.midi.org/midi-articles/may-22-parameter-control-with-footpedals
Basically you can have a foot control send any Midi Control Change, Mod Wheel or Pitch Bend. With creative programming you can get it to delay Note off events from within the micro controller (kind of like the sustain pedal on a piano). it depends on how complex you want to get with it.
