Re: Andromeda Delay Midi Pedal Controller
Andromeda allows me to access the 4 programs contained within the bank 1 via right Footswitch; but, if I want to access bank 2, then I need to do it manually. So, I need a midi pedal that allows me to access programs as well as banks. But, if the price is high $$$, I might as well buy another delay with such capabilities. Just exploring options right now, I really like the Andromeda delay.

Re: Andromeda Delay Midi Pedal Controller
Take a look at the MIDI Implementation Guide. It uses program changes to access all of the presets. Also, the manual has this:
Andromeda presets are arranged in 32 banks of 4 presets each for a total of 128
presets. Access to these presets via MIDI is sequential, for example:
Bank 01 Preset A (01A) – MIDI Program 00
Bank 01 Preset B (01B) – MIDI Program 01
Bank 01 Preset C (01C) – MIDI Program 02 etc
So, it doesn't seem to be using bank change messages to get to the presets. You can use bank messages to switch banks, but you can access the presets directly by just sending program change messages. A Midi Mouse can do this. You would need a more full-featured controller to access parameters within presets, as you need CC messages for that.
