It would be great to scroll through the scene, stomp and preset modes in an easier/more consistent fashion. When I play live, the dual click to navigate the scene, stomp and preset modes isn’t always consistent and having the option for one button to do this may be a good way to do it. Maybe having the ability to change the function of the top right up and down buttons into a mode changer could be a good way to do this? ---

When you say the word _page_, I think I you mean _mode_. Scene mode, Stomp mode, Preset mode. Is this what you meant? I’m only being picky about this because the word _page_ is used to differentiate scenes within a preset in the QC Mini (page I and II). That said, a request came up last year for scrolling through modes with the tap tempo switch: > [@Customization to the tap tempo button to change modes with a single foot switch](https://unity.neuraldsp.com/t/customization-to-the-tap-tempo-button-to-change-modes-with-a-single-foot-switch/20604): > > I like to switch between scenes and stomp modes throughout the night, but it never fails I don’t hit the two buttons perfectly and it sends me to another preset. I never use the tap tempo button, can you make a setting to allow us to customize the tap tempo button to be used for switching modes. So a short press will cycle (stomp mode, presets mode, scenes mode) and a long press goes to the tuner as normal. I know it’s not 100% the same request, but both touch on the larger discussion about reassigning and customizing footswitches. ---

Yes, sorry! That’s what I mean, I’ll edit the original ppst ---

Thanks for sending the other request, I agree that is basically the same sentiment, but I would still prefer the tap tempo/tuner as it is. But I get that it’s a similar post! ---

Hey Joseph, there is the ability to control the modes directly via midi. Change modes (Stomp/Preset/Scene) CC#47 value 0 loads Preset Mode CC#47 value 1 loads Scene Mode CC#47 value 2 loads Stomp Mode Any midi capable foot switch can do this. ---

But not hybrid mode apparently. Hopefully, NDSP implements full midi control and customization which should address many of these types of requests. ---

I get what you mean, but imo you shouldn’t have to buy a separate piece of equipment to be able to do that. That’s why this has been a request from a few people ---

Isn’t there already a combination of buttons we can hit now to cycle through these layouts? I could swear I accidentally did this once (maybe by hitting the bank down and tap buttons at the same time?) My Fractal has a similar feature, so maybe I’m getting the two mixed up. ---

There is, but in my experience (especially live) it’s hard to hit both to a consistent degree. Sometimes the tap tempo screen will come up and I have accidentally hit the unmute button for the metronome because of it. Having a single button to do this will always be much easier imo ---

That’s a good point. I have my own issues with the tap tempo screen altogether. These are the sorts of UI problems that can absolutely nuke a performance, and need to be fixed ASAP. I would sacrifice all of my other votes if these dumb UI decisions could be fixed. ---

100%, I think footswitching flexibility is probably the QC’s biggest weakness for me. And definitely there should be an option to turn off the tap tempo screen and access it, in a different way if you need to get to it ---

This feature would be an absolute game changer for me on QC. I’m always either singing and playing or musical Directing and playing. Hitting two footswitches at the same time to cycle through modes when a slight error (or a unique pair of shoes) could cause either a complete preset change or a Metronome/tempo menu shift is not at all an ideal solution. Neural’s QC webpage says “Switching modes couldn’t be easier…” but I have to disagree, it absolutely could be! ---

It’s such a bad design. Hopefully they can fix that
