Question: Ernie Ball Pedal for Keyboards?

[reflekshun]

I'm looking for the best Ernie Ball Pedal for keyboard (Midi CC Control). Does anyone know which one is suitable? I'm kinda confused with all the choices on the site!

Thanks anyone who can help

Basically you've got two choices- 25k or 250k. Beyond that it's regular sized or small (VP, Jr). There's a stereo one as well.

I'm guessing you'd want the 25k as an expression pedal. But you'd have to do some research on your gear and see what it wants for an external input.

Thanks heaps beej!

I know I'd want the regular sized model, and I think you're right - 25k is right for my Roland 700GX. Is it easy to work with the 25k ernie ball when theres only a stereo option?

Why don't I rephrase that - Does anyone know how to use a stereo volume pedal as a Midi expression pedal?

Appreciate any help!

Ok, yes for the regular sized 25k you're looking at the 6167. It's 2 channel ("stereo"), but that doesn't mean you need to use both. Each side is a really a mono 25k pedal, so just use either side. It just controls both sides at the same time.

So assuming 25k works with your rig, you should be good to go.
