The old ADA pedal will not work at all for the Echoplex. It is way way way too limited. All it can do is send program change messages. You need a better pedal. >i know i have heard of the berringer pedal, and i'd be curious to know >what the general feeling is about it. i asked this a while back and did >not hear from anyone, so if there is anyone who has any helpful advice, >it >would be appreciated. The behringer pedal has its minor issues, but it does work for controlling the Echoplex and it is easily available and inexpensive. I think there are a few obscure functions you can't do with it still, but a lot of people are using it happily. Other midi pedal options include the digitech PMC-10, Rocktron AllAccess, Lake-Butler Midigator RFC-1, Roland FC-200, Yamaha MFC-10. A lot of people complain about the roland and yamaha pedals, so you might stay away from those. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
