Crazy new expression pedal
- Thread starter MightyMiloQuinn

Thats pretty awesome! Look out expressionator! All passive I think is a huge plus. I don't know when I will have $300 for an EXP pedal though. 
Well that was the fastest GAS I've ever had, instant buy! Thanks for making me aware of this, gonna hook it up to two expressionators. 
Damn! If only you could have an option for different ohm pots. My Eventides don't play well with 10k pots (or linear ones for that matter). But what an awesome device. I love having separate control of two devices with one foot. So cool to be able to change two different pedal's parameters in different amounts at the same time!
I've been expecting to see one of these at some point. About ten years ago a guitarist friend of mine said he wanted to invent a dual axis expression pedal, i told him that someone probably already thought of it and is developing it. Took longer than I expected to see it actually be made though. Very cool.
Alright, the more I think about this thing, the more amazing it seems to me. I'm trying to contact them to see if they could do a 25k ohm version for my Eventides. If they can, I'll let ya' know in case anyone else is curious.
I gonna buy two, wear'm like shoes and pretend I'm surfin or something

Mammogram is down but I'm working manually
I really don't think I am coordinated enough for something like that....
Seriously. But for those of you who are, it looks amazing.
Imagine connecting that to all the expression pedal functions of a Moog MF104 delay?!?

I don't really get the 4 pots thing. I mean, I have two axis, heel-toe and left-right. How come 4? Is it just twice the same?
Yes, looks like it's just two expression jack per axis. Handy if you want to connect two effects per controller I guess.
Something I don't see mentioned is if there are any adjustments for those pots, I would have liked to see some trim pots to set low/high limits.

Yeah- means you can have two different functions on each axis to chose from by switching pedals on/off, or adjust simultaneously if you leave everything on.
Pairing this thing with an Expressionator would make it possible to hit a footswitch to decide which function it would control for one axis, or with 2 Expressionators you could chose for both axis'. It would just cost you like $700-800 in expression parts!
That would be easy enough for them to add I'm sure- it seems likely that they build them to order or in small batches at this point.
The Zoom B9.1ut bass multieffect and the Zoom G5 guitar multieffect have such an expression pedal.

Someone beat me to the punch that this is not a "new" idea, it's definitely been done before---I was thinking at least of the Zooms (heck, I have one for guitar), I didn't know about the Fender. It may be a great implementation, but it's definitely not a brand new idea...not that it needs to be, just clarifying the facts!
Not new technology, but I've yet to see a free-standing expression pedal incorporating it- so as far as I'm concerned it is "new" and ingenious!
