I've played with the Empeg's ability to accept ASCII commands via its serial port. For instance, if you send N to the Empeg, it goes to the next track.
I have a friend whose steering wheel has built-in buttons for controlling his factory CD player. He wants to get an Empeg and use those buttons for controlling it. I thought that the serial interface would be perfect for this.
Does someone already make a simple device that will take button presses and then send short pre-programmed commands to a serial port? Or will he need to make one himself?
He works at a high-tech manufacturing firm, so he has the resources to put together such a circuit if he has to. But to save him the trouble (and me, since I'm thinking of rigging up something similar), does anyone make such a circuit already?
