MIDI footcontroller for Xa2 control?

I find that keeping my hands on the guitar neck when 'writing/noodling/recording' ,etc keeps the creative flow going and so it would be very handy to use my feet to start/stop/record/undo. Particularly Undo....something I use a LOT .  I know the keyboard command for that takes two keys - Ctrl + Z.  Will I be able to program a SINGLE button on the footswitch to perform this?
Thanks!

    I don't know what you mean by "the footswitch" but you might be interested in something like the Behringer FCB1010

    +1 on the FCB1010.  I use the Behringer FCB1010 midi foot pedal - it is a great piece of gear.
