Cliff Burton's MIDI Foot Controllers
Cliff is shown with his FX pedals located just behind him. On the pedal board, we can see a rectangular module holding multiple switches in the far left corner of the board which closley resembles the profile of the Ibanez PC40 footswitch. This is also the same controller that was made for the Ibanez HD1500 to control multiple FXs such as the harmonics and delay systems directly from the board including a bypass feature. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1kwgxHO_Tc - The time stamp 3:38 shows that the PC40 is noted within this video about cliff burtons bass rig. This footswitcher was definetly used live, and possibly used in the studio.
