hello there, just wondering what makes of expression pedals you can use with this thing? do i just go for the moog one? or does the ol bespeco do the trick just as well?
You can use a number of different ones. In fact, the Moog ones aren't all that reliable. Well, I'm basing that on other people's comments. Mine is pretty new and I haven't had any problems yet. That said, I mainly use a Roland EV-5. Not the sturdiest piece of gear either, but it's worked so far.
a bespeco is an ultra "inexpensive" brand of expression pedal you can buy here where i live. they work with my boss rt-20, and line6 dl4, but i though moog pedals might be a little more fussy...
What kind of expression pedal can I use with my moogerfooger?
An expression pedal for use with moogerfoogers should contain a 50K or 100K potentiometer which is connected from the sleeve to the ring terminals of the plug. The potentiometer wiper is connected to the tip terminal. The pedal cable should be shielded, with the shield connected to the sleeve.
Anything that meets those criteria. In fact, I'd even say the pot value doesn't matter too much.
I'm using yamaha, maudio, and moog exp pedals, and while I'm not sure about the specifics of each pedal, they all work fine with my moogs. My guess is that one of those bespeco exp pedals would do the trick.
