I'm trying to find a controller that I can control with my feet. Specifically to change cameras, toggle record, initiate pip etc.
Right now I'm using a PS3 controller, on the floor. The two joysticks are big enough to click right left with my shoes, but there's gotta be something easier? Needs to be big enough to use with shoes, and at least 4 separate input selectors.

Thanks!
In the hardware support list, it says for xk-3 foot pedal- no activator support. What does that mean? Also, on x keys website, it says it needs additional software (not included) I wonder if that means it won't play well with vmix?

Activators means that the foot pedal do not have any feedback from vMix, e.g. indication for which input is active, etc... but since it is a foot pedal, it makes sense - it is not of any use anyway.

The software for X-keys is just a simple install that activates the USB device upon Windows startup, as I recall.

Well. I guess you should reach out for the support of P.I. Engineering and/or vMix to make sure the model you want is supported, but I think most of the X-keys models are supported by vMix.
