Correct, Uno can be flashed, never done that tbh. You have to consider the form factors too - uno is larger than say micro. Mine was already crammed with the micro, not sure if I could fit in a Uno. You can also go with a small internal male micro USB to female USB-B cable as a workaround. But it's up to you really, you can even have the Arduino outside the pedal and pass the cables through the hole.jamcat wrote: Sun Oct 01, 2023 7:02 pm
Huh. It has a full sized USB port which is the reason I want that one, since the StealthPedal uses USB-B and has a port cut out for it.
What’s the trick to get native support? And are there other versions with the full size USB and similar dimensions that support native USB?
Edit — it looks like this information is available here:

If I’m reading it correctly, the Uno can be flashed with MIDI firmware after programming.
As long as it will be a plug-n-play USB device after that and not need any software on the computer to see it, I’m OK with that.
Uno seems to be the only one with USB-B.
I have been using this for more than two years with no issues. At some point along the way when I was sure it was working fine, I completely removed the original electonics of the pedal and only kept the arduino.
Whereas the VPC1 is absolutely fantastic and great quality, the acompanying pedal (F-30 which is a Fatar unit) is nowhere near and several people had issues like me. I never looked back after the mod.
Btw the mod gives you 3 continuous contollers as opposed to the orignal 1 continuous + 2 switches of the pedal. Works great with Pianoteq for example. But I also map pedals to aftertouch or other controllers for synth work.
