Don, I can see how being able to assign negative values to the foot controller would help with expression. Being able to assign negative values to aftertouch would also be high on my list of improvements for my arranger. Instead of just bringing in more sound, we could cross fade from one sound to another. Yamaha, if you are listening . . .

By the way, I tried the sound combinations recommended by Uncle Dave, and I do like the expression that can be achieved by them. Still, I find my foot is rather clumsy for controlling musical nuances. I wish my PSR8k could do more with aftertouch.

By the way, how is the Solton X1 when it comes to realtime control of timbre?
