DIY MIDI Guitar Footswitch with Arduino

Check out my official shop for NAM Models, IRs, and more! https://nickleonard.gumroad.com/ Part 2 of my DIY MIDI guitar footswitch build. In this episode I cover everything from design and component choice, to building and coding. This is my second arduino-powered MIDI controller, and pretty easy to do - and much cheaper than buying one! Stay tuned for the next episode where I'll talk all about how I use it in Reaper - my own unique routing system for instant tone switching that works with any plugin, and any other electric or digital instrument! *UPDATED CODE* Thanks to Michael Fischer for setting up an LED Array, this code works the same, but is a little neater and easier to expand. You can change up the pedal design fairly easily, but be sure to set up the code for your own pedal! Version 2.0 here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jWlm...
