Midi switcher

hotpickups

I'm looking for a small/cheap MIDI switcher for my Strymon Mobius and soon to be purchased Strymon Timeline. I was thinking of the Tech21 MIDI Mouse but I don't think it can select the A or B banks on the units. Should I expect it to or can you suggest another switcher that can. 

Of course the GigRig G2 would do it all but I'm not in the market for that amount of kit neither would I use anywhere near its capabilities

I guess with so many presets to save i.e. 128 on the Tech21, I can just save a number to each A/B of each bank etc

I've checked out another switcher. The Gecko from One Control, anyone tried it? Have to be run off a power supply with that one though as opposed to the Tech21 can be run on a battery

I *think* AMT do a small pedal that can run off 9v and do midi program change, probably not bank or cc though

The Tech 21 will work fine. Don't the Strymon units work like this....

PC 1 = Bank 1, preset A
PC 2 = Bank 1, preset B
PC 3 = Bank 2, preset A
PC 4 = Bank 2, preset B
etc...
etc...

The problem with the Midi Mouse is that it will involve a lot of scrolling up and down.

Thanks but way too big

Yes they do. That's ok as I don't use a lot of presets so they will be fairly close together
