The Harley Benton MP-100 MIDI Foot Controller can only do MIDI Program Change and -Controller. But already Program Change is enough to control Qtractor (start/stop, loop, forward/backward etc.).
It can be programmed directly on the device, so you don't need any software, which is often only available for Windows.
The controller has to be connected to Qtractor's MIDI Master bus.
To not confuse software synths in the tracks with the program change commands I created a separate MIDI bus as input for all of the MIDI tracks and connect my MIDI keyboard to it.
Works fine for me.
