I just got my DUO today and I saw it has a "Repeat Mode" Press "2&4" at the same time and you can step and hold for repeated FAST! page turning. This may be faster than turning off the Bluetooth to get the keyboard. Just be careful to tap quickly if you want the single page turn. Thanks for the review, good stuff.
Great review. A few years ago I built a pedal board out of an iPad powerpoint, or "presentation" remote, some plywood and some other...stuff... Used a plywood base plate w/ Posy grip glued underneath. Cut two plywood pedals to size and connected each to hinge underneath at the backs of each and two springs underneath at the front with a small hole to secure the springs. Screwed in two rubber feet (one for each respective pedal/corner) to click each side of the remote. It worked like a fucking charm until some douchebag stomped on it. The whole thing cost me maybe $10 bucks since I had almost everything I needed sitting in my garage. I was honestly going to say something like "I think it's time to invest in a proper page turning pedal" but after listing all those materials and remembering how awesome it was, I kind of want to build another one. Hey thanks for the inspiration and killer beard, man!
I believe the newer models allow you to change a setting so you can step on the pedal and it will keep flipping pages until you get to the desired page.
I am a professional concert harpist, yes I am using it, but with 7 other pedals on my harp, I am moving, sometimes 2 at a time, it's tricky for some songs, I have to be sure my page turn does not involve my foot on the air turn pedal. Every once in a while it double clicks forward, not good, but I just make sure I step on it firm. The battery did run out in the middle of a performance once, so now I charge it up, it would be better to have a good reading device showing battery amount left, otherwise, it is good, yes I agree an on-off switch would be better. the bite thing, hmmm a harpist biting in the middle of a performance may not look great, but would solve the problem
Too bad you cant hold the right pedal down for 2 seconds to take you to a list of songs sorted by alpha., then when needed hold down the left pedal for 2 seconds to take you back to the set list with regular pedal functions..
Cheap plastic, the usb charger plug broke on the first gig i used it. Got my money back,bought the other model.Ok, here is my opinion on this piece of shit. most toys are built stronger than that thing. I am a professional musician and i need a unit like this to work. I really don't understand what's the thinking behind the conception of a peace of gear that many musicians have to rely on. Tell me that a group of poeple in charge of the evaluation of the quality of that product approoved it, saying..."yes we can sell that"... F...i...Hell...sell it 50$ more and make it solid. . cheap plastic... unF...king believable... if somebody from the company reads this,please contact me and i will tell you how it works in real life...
Went through a bunch of reviews for different page turners... have to say, this guy does a great job! Informative, funny, entertaining... great job!

One of the best and most real reviews I've seen. Good job man!

Thank you so much for making your videos informative as well as entertaining. It was a joy to watch.

This channel could grow really big... I guarantee it!
Awesome review BTW!
Awesome...love the humour and have subscribed! Looking forward to more...
Hi! Thank you for your video. Do you know how to prevent the pedal from turning accidentally two pages at the time? It is very sensitive.
Hi Man not only was this informative but I enjoyed your video very entertaining keep it up man
Nice review, beautiful Fender!

Do you know if this product will turn pdf pages on windows or Android environment? Or it is meant only for music apps?
nice video man!
thanks
I think you can Force the Keyboard in Forscore! This would fix the issue you have for searching through your library.
Great review! xD
ya kill me, love a sense humor and great product
I assumed that the bite switch was for quadriplegics etc - but I guess organists as well!

Like your review but you should look into the camera more and the monitor less...
