Looking for a midi foot controller

Hello,
I am looking for a midi foot controller that works like the Behringer FCB1010 but is much smaller - five footswitches (no pedals) will do.
Could you pleas recommend something to me?
Many THX!

as far as i am aware there is no such thing
if you can afford it, the mcmillen softstep might be the way to go

build your own! Look into Halemicro's UMC32+M. It's a PCB that you can hook up switches, faders, knobs, etc to. Converts the signal from your controls to midi via usb. It's really easy to use and is inexpensive.

MIDI Moose, perhaps?

Softstep

i definitely think novation or m-audio or someone with scale is missing a trick here - it can't be that difficult to put into production a lighter, better version of the fcb monster... the softstep is ace, but it's quite intimidating / time consuming to program, and very expensive.

is the smaller size a necessity for you? It's pretty hard to beat the fcb in price. The best one i can think of would be the softstep by mcmillan. Yes there are more than 5 buttons but it's worth it.
