SoulPedal® Board

SoulPedal® SP3 is our Next Gen Wireless Insole with Haptics and a new "SoulPedal® Board" App for Ease of Setup.

Made in USA

Short descripton? Too late. Recommend reviewing my web animation first, then return here.

The latest App is solid, focusing on fast and easy Setup (image upload shows some of the MIDI functions).

SP3 Pedal adds Haptics with unique vibration patterns, also for Ease-of-Use. It is excellent and borderline necessary for full emersion.

Our latest SoulPedal® Board App configures foot gestures (angle limits, timing, complexity etc...) along with a Pressure Sensor profile. Originally for the Guitarist who loves a great Wah anywhere on stage (demo'd at NAMM '23 Booth) this system has evolved into an interesting option for any performing artist including DJs, Live Vocalist, and why not Magicians. Literally how the crowd sees this new tech, or doesn't see it at all, is completely up to the user to define, as I've seen both used this way.

The App also simplifies MIDI setup while providing tools and feedback to help understand the MIDI language, and possibly daring them to edit custom MIDI Controls over time. Help now includes a Decimal Hex converter and provides the actual Hex MIDI strings real-time on screen as you set the options. The mouse-over hints are also detailed and elaborate.

Notice this MIDI Table format has no "drill-down" popups or pages from the main screen. All setup is through this highly interactive table with icons that help to describe the setup at a glance. Columns Drag and Drop positions, LED colors match live use. This example is for a Headrush Looper Setup that actually works even while sitting and casually switching. These demos are also coming soon.

1. Control methods that invite any artist to move and groove on stage in a number of creative ways,
hopefully informing their playing style for an original show.
2. Ease of Use for non-MIDI users (features available today, and quite new for this year):
- Single page MIDI Configuration with an upgraded interactive Table.
- Handy Hex/Dec Converter on-screen, and can alternate between Easy & Custom MIDI.
- See the actual MIDI Hex byes real-time as you edit to learn something about MIDI.
3. Press the Box Pad to select your stored MIDI command strings live, send with exact timing using a
simple gesture (also new).
4. Simple color association with Haptic patterns makes this UX even easier to use (Haptics are fully
tested).
5. Several new features on the Pedal config side as well.

Artists will learn how SoulPedal® and MIDI integration can simplify their rig and enhance their shows by either hiding pedalboard control in stealth mode, or by showing off some cool tech of your own with some novel Human Expression on stage. I'm personally interested to continue on this journey through the most creative talent I can find.

SoulPedal® provides unique Artistic control and timing without distracting the crowd fubling for footswitch under full stage lights. These latest improvements provide sublties of human motion for physical emphasis on stage, all while keeping the smallest equipment footprint in some cases. The pedals are light and comfortable, S-M-L, Left or Right foot, and might even make you look just a little bit taller.

SoulPedal® has MIDI Out (old school, no MIDI In). Either Foot Pressure or Foot Angle can be used to Modulate Effects, including Virtual MIDI CC Pedals, Switches, Knobs, and PC Toggles. Intuitively controlled, and consistent. It neatly lets the user define their own depth and complexity.

The App simplifies configuration of a Virtual Pedalboard that can mirror or extend functionality remotely, potentially downsize if that's important. It will control most Multi-Effects Processors, DAWs, and Effects having a MIDI In.

For speed, the software was written in pure C Embedded, with very fast RF Packet delivery at 915 MHz (or 868 MHz, but not CE yet). This software is mature with auto notification of wireless firmware updates, xml file storage. It's a real playground and can't wait to see new ways applied.

1. Expand focus from Guitar effects into MIDI new use cases (this).
2. Offer a low-cost Upgrade, backward compatible with today's system (summer).
3. Deeply engage with Superusers, add some Social on X, and more demo's.
4. Partner where opportunities are ripe, including 3rd party licensing or hardware integration.
5. Patented and still very interested in finding the right user for a new style of artist.

Grow with demand. Increased MU on existing Semi-automated equipment in-house, cost cutting on Design and Production, use China PCB assy with the latest 2-layer design (vs 4) and with Haptics. Eventually train Optimus in 2025 to fully automate production.

That's one approach, but I'm all ears.
Cheers!
