Guitar Lessons (and Other Things) Made Easier With Foot Controls

That’s actu­al­ly a lot more inter­est­ing then I thought it was gonna be.

LMAO at the price of these sim­ple controllers.

would be use­ful for peo­ple miss­ing hands or arms too. cool product.

inter­est­ing

From a gui­tar play­er stand­point, this is a waste of mon­ey. If I am going to spend $200+ on ped­als, I am going to buy gui­tar effects ped­als instead for some­thing that just can make con­trol­ling my com­put­er eas­i­er for watch­ing lessons. You can buy a cheap gam­ing key­oboard with macro capa­bil­i­ty and pro­gram those controls.

Nice to see foot ped­als fea­tured on a main­stream chan­nel! I use 3 foot ped­als cur­rent­ly when play­ing FPS games: a sin­gle ped­al for my left foot, and a dou­ble ped­al for my right foot. I just bought cheap plas­tic USB ped­als on Ama­zon for between $20 and $40.

There are some­times a lot of con­trols to use when play­ing games and I found my motion and some­times my aim­ing being ham­pered by try­ing to do too much with just my hands. For exam­ple, I use the left foot ped­al for either slow-walk­ing in the game (hold it down to do so) or to just switch to my sec­ondary weapon quick­ly (sin­gle press), depend­ing on the game. The lat­ter is usu­al­ly required dur­ing the mid­dle of a gun-fight when you run out of ammo in your mag, so to be able to make this switch with my foot instead of my hand is very help­ful. With the right two ped­als, I use them for voice chat dur­ing the games. I get sick and tired of lis­ten­ing to peo­ple in my squad breath­ing, cough­ing, sneez­ing, or talk­ing to oth­ers in their home because they don’t use push-to-talk. I vowed to myself that I would not be that incon­sid­er­ate to oth­ers when I’m gam­ing, but I also found it annoy­ing to pull a fin­ger away from either mov­ing or aim­ing to talk to my squad dur­ing a fight. So, I set the two right ped­als for push-to-talk — one ped­al for dis­cord, the oth­er for in-game voice chat. I use two ped­als because if I use just one for both, then my squad in dis­cord always hears me echo­ing in game.

For me, foot ped­als make play­ing games eas­i­er and does­n’t pull focus away from using my hands for move­ment and aim­ing. Thanks again for fea­tur­ing foot ped­als on the channel.

Not as advertised…caveat emptor…you have to do all this goofy crap to get it to work…you have to dis­able your key­board on all devices which means you have no con­trol once you con­nect to it. You can not use it with YouTube…you have to watch video inside a brows­er (only Safari which sucks IMO) which means your screen has all the tabs and oth­er crap on it. If won’t work with Apple TV and if you con­nect it to a device and stream that device to anoth­er device so you can watch videos on a large screen you still get all the goofy brows­er win­dow crap. It works, just not as clean and sim­ple as they claim. I’m just saying…know what you’re buy­ing and what this video nor the mak­er does not disclos
