Title: Re: WTB: Echoplex pedal

Hi Tom,

Well worth getting the footpedal - it really opens up the EDP functionality as a live performance tool .....

If you draw a blank on finding one s/h then you could make your own as it is just switches and resistors. You could use the "little red buttons" or source your own switches. This link tell you the values of the resistors to make your own:

I am going to try this myself, planning a button layout to reduce foot movement.

As the footpedal works by just connecting a resistor of the approriate value across the EDP footpedal input it should be possible to have multiple footpedals connected at once (as long as you don't operate them at the same moment). Handy for multi-instrumentalists, percussionists etc. who need instant control to hand in various places.

It is possible to add an extra switch for the "parameters" button although the new "presets' feature in Loop 4 means you can change a number of parameter settings at a stroke with program changes (new manual section 8.2).

Hope this helps

Best wishes

Hi all,

Just on the odd chance... I bought my Echoplex sans pedal figuring I'd
control it from my existing MIDI setup.  Things are proving harder than anticipated
there though so now I'm wondering if it might just be easier to drag another
board around.  Hmmm... sooo.. anyone?

Thanks,
