sorry to exhume thread but I got a new piece of gear and i'm a bit confused. I got the CP-251, which is a control voltage mixer/controller. It references it's own expression pedal which has a single line out of the thing. Does anyone have experience with this and can they offer a suggestion on whether I need to buy this or can jerry-rig something else? My guess is that it's just a TRS line which could be duplicated through my Ernie Ball mono pedal using a TRS breakout cable. Anyone know if this is true? I am reluctant to experiment with the thing and short it out by accident. Log range is OK. Thanks in advance, Ben PS my application is controlling the Sherman which I monkey'd with last night and it is just wicked. But I'd like to get a VCO kit too... -----Original Message----- From: jim palmer [mailto:jimp@pobox.com] Sent: Monday, May 13, 2002 6:51 PM To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com Subject: Re: expression pedal with all access you can use the ernie ball as-is with a standard insert cable, but you get a log curve - the middle position of the pedal does not translate to the middle of the control range. in other words: if you set your control range to 0-127 (default), the middle pos of the pedal will not result in a cc of 64... in order to get this behavior, you have to replace the audio taper pot with a linear taper pot... > i think the ernie ball mono pedal will work fine....although i'm told >i'll > have to build a special cable for it...we'll see. > > -jim > >
