Just to clarify that this pedal which is placed at the very beginning of the chain requires no power supply. This is what 'm allowed to place out of my pedalboard.
The pedal is 27 cm long, it're built in a thick aluminum chassis that inspires confidence.

UTILIZATION

The goal was to find the thrill of controlling whammy pitch a Boss PF6 the tonic to its second octave. Stereo jack turns required to use the FV 500h as expression pedal. We read on the pedal and not the manual which should be somewhere in the box.
Once the foot on the pedal it feels good and of course there are stable landmarks throughout the race, which for a whammy emulation is almost too much!
A screw can play on the length of the race course, but mechanically it works.
The potentiometer located on the edge of the pedal decides when hooking of the pedal with respect to its stroke. This subtle adjustment in my case, will be of no use, because it is in the wider band that I blossomed. But it is a setting option.

SOUND QUALITY

For some expression pedal sound module depends on which you are connected.

OVERALL OPINION

I realized my project with an old Roland EV-5 which was home I do not know how. But the latter, although I had not smaller inspired no confidence, because all plastic and I weigh more than 85 kg with two broken before Cry Babys, I could not think seriously put my foot, even with all my weight on such a frail craft, especially in concert or sometimes I play dangerously with my sense of balance. The boss is just the opposite, she did not quite over.
