EX-P Expression Pedal : Good value entry level expression pedal

I got this pedal to replace the omnipresent Behringer FCB1010, a mighty multi-faceted beast but, alas, too much so for my needs. All I needed was a straight-up MIDI expression pedal to control various effects on Native Instruments Guitar Rig and, upon completing my purchase of the M-Audio Keystation Pro 88, I had a compact alternative to the Behringer controller presented to me.

However, that is a point to stress, just in case you're under any illusion that this is some magic MIDI expression pedal - you will need a valid MIDI input device with an EXP port in order to take advantage of this pedal.

This aside, you get what you pay for - a basic interface for your foot and whatever MIDI controller value you choose to assign it to (most mainstream software that supports MIDI input will have a 'learn' facility that will match your MIDI CC to the desired effect).

I mostly use this in the home but I wouldn't expect it to stand up to much punishment whilst out on the road (for which I'd recommend the Behringer controller) - it's basically plastic, rubber and wires, there's not much to it but it gets the job done.
