Foot Stomper Shenanigans

OMG, Teh Pedal Thingy

Yah, so this is where u go when u wanna torture urself w/ fancy foot pedal stuff. Honestly? U prolly don't need 2 be here. Like, seriously. Most peeps just use the basic setup in Foot Pedal Stuff & call it a day. But if u're feelin' spicy & wanna dig into the advanced nonsense, buckle up buttercup. 🎪

Here's the alphabet soup of options we're gonna throw @ u:

Pedal Type (aka "Which Flavor of Confusing?")

OnSong has like… drivers? For different foot pedals? It's a whole thing.

  • None = "make the pedals shut up & go away." Classic.
  • iOS Compatible = u can teach ur pedals 2 respond 2 arrow keys & random letters. It's like training a digital dog, except the dog is ur foot. U configure it below. U're welcome.
  • AirTurn = fancy AirTurn foot pedal drivers that work w/ all their models. Uses arrow keys like a normal person. (This is the default cuz we're not monsters.)

Pedal 1–4 (aka "Name Ur Pedals Like They're Ur Pets")

So if u picked iOS Compatible above, congrats! Now u gotta map each pedal 2 a letter or phrase. Wild, right? Like, u could make Pedal 1 = "a", Pedal 2 = "s", Pedal 3 = "w", Pedal 4 = "z" (no quotes, nerds). Then OnSong gets all excited & sends notifications whenever those characters happen. U can even use full phrases if u're feelin' extra.

Once the characters r matched up, the pedal does its thing based on whatever u set it up 2 do in the last screen. Revolutionary stuff, really.

Sensitivity (aka "Chill Out, Twitchy Feet")

This stops u from accidentally stompin' all over urself like a maniac. It adds a lil' pause b4 responding 2 duplicate pedal mashing. Tweak it between 0 & 2 seconds. Zero is default (ur foot moves = instant chaos). Anything higher = OnSong takes a breath & waits b4 lettin' u spam it again. Live ur best life. ✨
