Re: Eleven Rack Expression Pedal
 
Thanks V!

That's what I thought and what I was planning on doing. Nice to know I can get a EP-11 with a switch to do that. I was planning on buying one of their other, non 11R, pedals to do just this.

So many hoops to jump through just to engaged a wah. :-(

Since the Ground Control only has 2 expression pedal inputs, you'll use both of these for just the wah. If you want to add a second pedal for volume only, you'll have to route a TRS cable all the way back to the 11R. Which is possible.

This is probably a good reason to include 4 expression pedal inputs in a controller built without a built in foot controller.

I've been working with this little MIDI widget for other reasons (i.e. mapping ER CC #s onto the range that my FC-300 can send).

You could just as easily program this to give you auto-off for your MIDI wah pedal... :-)

.....meaning Sweetwaters sight is misleading

Thats the exact same email they sent me. I asked if they had a .pdf somewhere so I could see how they suggested to set up the EP-11S, but thats all they said.

... and what's more odd about the product is that I assume to use the EP-11 with the Ground Control Pro, you'd actually flip the 11R switch under the pedal to put it into regular expression pedal mode - instead of the custom taper they've designed to work well with the 11R.

If you're going to hook up to the GCP, you can just get the SP-1 model. You can get the SP-1 in a bunch of colors (but not orange - one color is "metal"), and it's cheaper (not by much after shipping mind you).

Sweetwater's EP-11-S seems like it would be good for "just in case you want to use this on the expression pedal input of your 11R one day". Otherwise, if you want proper wah control, you'll need another MIDI box.

11R mk11 must have more than one expression pedal input. I'd put it on IdealStale, but who reads that anymore. :-)
