Nice video. Waaaay Overpriced for what’s actually a simplified keyboard or Bluetooth keyboard for the foot. Should cost same as a basic keyboard. There’s no fancy hardware here.

Lol
I think there are apps you can download that may help teach you guitar. Where you won’t have to spend $200+ dollars

That’s neat, I probably wouldn’t need it cause I’m pretty much a professional air guitar player (in my own mind but the wife just laughs ????♂️)

This could actually be used for cooking, crafting, art and many other things where your hands are occupied or dirty… Love it.

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.

Way overpriced for what they do. Search for USB foot pedals. You can find programmable 3 pedal units for $40 or less
