Single patch with footswitches to solo Inst 1/2/3

[GCaturano]

Hi!
I need a single patch where I three instruments available, each with the press of a footswitch.
Ideally, footswitch 1 should solo Inst 1, footswitch 2 should solo inst 2, etc.
I tried to assign Footswitch 1 to Inst 1 on/off and inst 2 and 3 off/on. This works, but if I press it again it turns on both Inst 2 and 3.
Then I assigned Footswitch 2 to Inst 2 on/off and Inst 1 and 3 off/on, and this doesn't work: it turns on Inst 3 as well.
I ran into similar problems before when multiple controllers are assigned to the same target.

Any hint on how to make this happen, maybe with a different approach?

A difficult task to do like that, it might be easier using an Expression pedal where each instrument is engaged at different pedal positions.
Inst1 = TOE
Inst2 = MIDWAY
Inst3 = HEEL

You could also arrange for a little overlap between 1 & 2 and 2 & 3.

You could try to make three momentary assigns to each switch, the first one will set inst1 to on for both states. The second and third will switch inst2 and 3 off. Repeat this in different order for the other switches.

If using an EXP1 pedal, you can do it with 4 Assigns, like this:

Assign 1***********
[Assign1: On/Off] = On
[Assign1: Target] = INST1 ON/OFF
[Assign1: Min] = On
[Assign1: Max] = Off
[Assign1: Source] = EXP1
[Assign1: Source Mode ] = MOMENT
[Assign1: Range Low] = 39
[Assign1: Range High] = 40

Assign 2***********
[Assign2: On/Off] = On
[Assign2: Target] = INST2 ON/OFF
[Assign2: Min] = Off
[Assign2: Max] = On
[Assign2: Source] = EXP1
[Assign2: Source Mode ] = MOMENT
[Assign2: Range Low] = 40
[Assign2: Range High] = 41

Assign 3***********
[Assign3: On/Off] = On
[Assign3: Target] = INST2 ON/OFF
[Assign3: Min] = On
[Assign3: Max] = Off
[Assign3: Source] = EXP1
[Assign3: Source Mode ] = MOMENT
[Assign3: Range Low] = 80
[Assign3: Range High] = 81

Assign 4***********
[Assign4: On/Off] = On
[Assign4: Target] = INST3 ON/OFF
[Assign4: Min] = Off
[Assign4: Max] = On
[Assign4: Source] = EXP1
[Assign4: Source Mode ] = MOMENT
[Assign4: Range Low] = 80
[Assign4: Range High] = 81
