...for a keyboard rig. i know i need a stereo one, just not sure which of the three available to get. any keyboard players out there that use a volume pedal?
The EB 25k volume pedal is for Keyboards. In fact we used to call it the Keyboard Pedal a few years ago, because it is implemented with a pot value suitable for line level or active instruments. The part number is 6167 and available with any music store.
I purchased an EB Jr 6181 which has the 25k pot, because it said it was for active electronics. I use it with my acoustic, which has an active pickup system. Is this the pedal that I should be using?
Yes ! VPJR 25 would be the correct pedal for active use. The 25k pot is suitable for most instruments that have a "hot" or active or line level outputs.
The normal 25k pedal is better suited for keyboards beacause it has stereo in and outs.
