Synthesized percussion pedal and looping station

Abstract

The disclosure provides an apparatus and method for managing audio signals using foot-operated switches and selectors. The apparatus includes foot-operated switches that control signals from an instrument input, a looper module, or a MIDI sequence. Selectors adjust parameters like tempo, volume, or attributes of main and fill MIDI sequences. A sequence of foot switch depressions governs signal behavior. Additional features include sequence analysis for activation commands, signal recording, and sequence transitions. An external device may further adjust the signal, and a display offers visual feedback. The disclosure is applicable in music, audio engineering, and live performance contexts.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
