Re: [xpantastic] Pedal confusion

2008-09-24 by PeWe


Yes, a pedal in general is just a pot you move w/ your foot,- but this not only for "volume" ...

Manual says clearly: Pedal inputs for PEDALS or FOOTSWITCHES.

All common momentary switches work as expected if the polarity is right.
A PEDAL works like a LEVER ( of a Matrix12 p.ex. and a LEVER is a pot )
If it works or not depends on the pedal or pot used.
You cannot use any pedal.

Lever 1 and Pedal 1 exist independently for each voice, Lever 2 and Pedal 2 are universal controllers,- this does not depend on midi in any way.

Ah, I think I understand. Thanks for the answers!

The pedal is just a pot, a volume control (up/down).

It looks like I'll have to get a PC-200 MKII controller with a pot pedal
socket. I used to have one but it broke so I got a MK 1 and it's not as
good. With this I should be able to mess around with the Xpander's
filter by pedal. :-)
