Controller Pedals for the VFX

Controller Pedals for the VFX

2004-03-31 by gottamakethings

Hey VFXr's

I just came into a whole stack of brand new Voltage Control Pedals 
from my local music store who got them with some old inventory. I 
think without too much trouble they can be rewired to a stereo plug 
for VFX. They have a 10k pot and are made of metal with a better than 
average pot. I have an old plastic Ensoniq pedal for my VFX that is 
kind of beat now, so I know these are great improvement and should 
work.
 
Anybody interested in me rewiring any of these and selling them?

If so what would you be willing to pay?

Dan

any volume control pedal can be rewired quickly for VC
  i once took a stereo volume pedal and turned it into a pedal
that can do VC when i want and kept it working as a (mono) volume pedal 
(when i need)

all it takes is to put all 3 wires from a pot to a stereo 1/4 jack
(usually you replace the mono 1/4 jack on one side of a vol pedal)
if you dont trust what your doing
test it with the wires , pot and stereo jack in your hand
and test connections till to get it right(connected to the vfx VC input)
  then solder
