Re: [motm] Re: Slightly OT, Pedals? Which one?

Well, the pedal interface is "optimized" for 3 different sizes of resistive
pots.  8.5K (Roland EV-5), 50K Yamaha FC-7 and others, and 100 K (generic).
A single jumper on the board selects the appropriate range.  So, if the Moog
is one of those three, it will work perfectly.  However, if not, you can
change one resistor and still have three selections - the Roland the Yamaha
and something else (the Moog).  I have not seen or used the Moog pedal, so I
cannot say anything about it.  Does someone know the pot size?  The R/T/S
wiring arrangement does not matter.  The pedal interface accepts both.

But, really, you cannot expect the Moog pedal to appear on the official
list....   :)

Do you know about the Big Briar EP-1 Expression Pedal?

How else can you get a Moog for $40?
