Page Turner Pedal recommendation for Android Tablet

[cetera]

Finally entering the 21st Century for depping and will be using a new Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ Tablet and a setlist/music app..... but I need to get a decent quality, reliable page turning pedal.

 

Seems there's lots of choices out there. Who's using what and would recommend? Cheers!

To consider:

- low noise switches?

- how many switches you - really - need?

- battery saving mode if you forget it ON?

 

Mine is a Pageflip Dragonfly. It has four quiet switches (would work in a studio, or with a symphony band), super long battery lifetime, and extra weight. The unit has lights, too, but the form of the unit is so distinctive you cannot miss.

 

Low noise means no tactile feedback, but I do can see, when the page is turning.

 

Now I would choose the simpler one with two switches only: Butterfly or Firefly. The two extra switches are not needed, but on the way. They are also slimmer units.

 

There was extra metal inside that I removed. The pedal can move on a slippery floor, but because I carry everything in my mono case, lighter, and slimmer is better.

Lekato. Mine has gone on and on. Metal case, small, rechargeable, reliable. I bought a second one as a back up and have never needed it.

I was going to jump straight in here and say that I’ve only ever had one, because it’s the only one I’ve ever had, it’s bombproof, ultra reliable and still going strong 6 years after I bought it from Thomann. However, it appears the ‘Airturn BT200S-2’ is no longer available. I’ll have a look and see if I can find one somewhere.

The updated version is this one….

I built one with an ESP32 and a couple of footswitches - made it 9V powered as it was intended for use with effects as well. The Lekato looks an excellent buy, costs about the same as the overall cost of components and die-cast box for my DIY job - although mine will do line up and down, page up and down, and switch between apps.

I have the M VAVE Cube turner and it looks pretty identical to the Lekato,  but its not posted from China, though a few quid dearer.  Had it working for a couple of years without

any faults.
