I don’t bother bending down anymore. I’ve done two things to avoid that. I now have Onsong switch songs for me for beats that I’ve created for them. However, if I’m just using a standard beat for a song that I haven’t programmed yet, I’ve used the “Norbert Hack” to add another accessory pedal which takes the place of the main pedal on the BeatBuddy. This lets me mount the BB up on my mic stand so I can control it from there if needed. Then I use a Boss FS-1 to control the BB (in place of the main pedal) and the 2 switch accessory pedal.
