Hello everyone, and thank you for accepting me here 
Total noob on the forum, so forgive me if i break the rules from time to time
I've been working on this for a couple of months and i think it's time to show it around, get some feedback, do some troubleshooting etc. It's a pedalboard switcher, a bit different than what we usually find on the market. I wouldn't say it's got brand new features, but the whole thing is very easy to use
First things first, a BIG thank you to bryan for sharing so much info and marshall arts for the guidance with this project so far. It's built around the arduino mega, and features:
The relays box is under heavy construction/design, the prototype of the controller is already here and working (attachments)
So what do you think about it guys? Any features worth adding?

First things first, a BIG thank you to bryan for sharing so much info and marshall arts for the guidance with this project so far. It's built around the arduino mega, and features:
- Separate boxes for controller and looper, this means you can have it all set up on your pedalboard somewhere far away, and only use the controller with the foodswitches in front of you.
- 10 loops, the last 2 of which have trails/spillover option (thank you guys)
- midi control with 7 different parameters stored per patch. that includes program change, CC and other stuff
- 4 amp switches, which can also be used for tap tempo input for pedals that support it
- expression pedal support right next to the controller. It can control any midi parameter real-time
- switchable pre-gain on guitar input, post-gain on guitar output, i intend to give it a +/-9dB range
- 100 presets stored in banks of 10
- tap tempo stomp (green led blinking)
- bank up/down stomps
- patch/stomp mode stomp (when active, you can directly control any of the loops via the 10 stomps. for improvising situations)
- Color LCD resistive touchscreen. Yes i wanted to have a capacitive touch, but could not find something that fit the project. It works just fine though!
- The whole setup/programming is done on the screen. This makes it very easy to understand and fast to configure, even if you've never seen it before!
