I know this comes across a bit prog excess but we want to do some more modern pop songs which can be greatly uplifted with an original sample or three. Keyboard player has enough on his plate, singer not very enthusiastic, so I was thinking about triggering them by foot. I don't know much about this stuff but I'd go for an FCB 1010 and a software sampler on my laptop (linuxsampler). Anyone got any lower footprint (literally) solutions? The FCB 1010 is a bit of a beast and floor space can be at a premium.

Obviously there are "proggie" organ-style bass pedals that are MIDI controllers to drive anything that accepts MIDI, but they're similar sizes to an FCB1010.
I'm quite keen on my Hotone Ampero Control. That's a 4 button MIDI controller with 99 banks of presets, pretty small on the floor, you program it using an iPad app and it sends MIDI over 5-pin DIN and/or USB cable and even via Bluetooth. Runs on 9v DC. The only thing missing is the display telling you what preset bank is loaded is numeric rather than text, so you'd need to know what number wwas needed for what song.
The footswitches are quite flexible, too. One footswitch could be a single message, or toggle between two messages, or momentary or hold (you press once and it pretends you're pressing it for a preset amount of time IIRC). It can send PC, CC Note ON or Note OFF messages. So you could probably trigger a 4 bar sample and just let it run or press and hold or a pad sound, releasing it when you want it to stop.
Worth a look, TBH.
yeah basically the same as the Jamman principle..
So does ours fortunately now..
