Best Nektar NX-P Alternatives

Expensive pedal, but you get a really high quality for the price. Can control up to two keyboards as a volume pedal, and another one as an expression pedal. Will also work very well as a CV pedal for controlling analog synths or effects that accept a control pedal input (I use it with my Odyssey and/or Moog Minifoogers). Build is very solid, action is firm but smooth. A little more travel would be welcome, but anyway it is very easy to control fine changes in expression. The pedal is all metal but not too big and heavy, perfect size and shape. The rubber feet make it stay in place firmly, and the rubberized upper surface gives perfect control (impossible to slip), even if it gets very dirty very easily. All in all, great pedal!

This volume pedal does everything that the company says at 99% . The tone is all there . The buffer works just perfect . You can use it as master volume or guitar volume or for ambient swells or for whatever you want. The size and the shape is exactly like the dunlop cry baby. The adjustments inside of pedal are very usefull BUT i wish it be outside of the box for quick adjustments. The pedal doesn't have on/off option, is always on, if for some reason you don't want to use it ... you must unplug it . From the moment that my tone is unaffected there is no need for me to unplug it but i am a lilttle worry about how many hours gonna work before his "death"

I used Roland pedal with my Hammond SK-1 before, because of the irrationally high price of the EXP50. It was however noticeably unable to express fine details and the total travel of the pedal was short. Also, I had problems with the amplification preselection of the Roland pedal - was very hard to set the knob right (tenths of millimeters of turning the knob!), and has always moved from there over time. With this pedal no pre-adjustment is needed, just works fine (naturally) with the Hammond, and I finally learned how much expression the pedal can add to my organ music while the predecessor was rather a loudness control than an "expression" pedal. Rather expensive, but essential, and very satisfying. Highly recommended.

All are good but think about what you need before you buy. This one goes heel position automatic. If you use this with kemper - kemper stage has options on how to trigger for example wahwah. It can go automatic off on heel position, toe position or inactivity. I use all my kemper automatisation with this pedal so I need automatic heel position. If you don't need automatic heel, this is a great pedal so get on that doesn't have a spring return in. Also this one is used with stereo cable so there's no real output and uses only as expression pedal for any pot.

I've had quite a few products from Xotic (BB Preamp, EP Booster, SP Comp, Wah) and this is on par with those in terms of build quality and sound. The treadle is super smooth, very sturdy, with a very even taper, perfect for pedal steel swells and precise adjustments of volume. Even considering the "no potentiometer" spec of the Lehle Volume pedal (which is also a fantastic alternative, I tested it), I'd actually rank this one slightly above because of the build, feel and size of the Xotic. Pros: - feel - taper uniformity - size - build quality Cons: - using a potentiometer (when compared to a Lehle)

The size of this pedal is large enough for "Big Foot's feet"! Therefore, making it easy to work with in terms of foot positioning! And, the pedal is designed to place at the beginning of your guitar signal chain; whether directly from your guitar or directly from an output signal source such as from your amp (if your amp is equipped with an output jack [such as a headphone jack]). The constructive metal material and non-slip grip of the pedal is designed to make this pedal comfortable and last a long time. It's also, equipped with: a) a side jack to connect directly to a tuner, if you wish, b) an expression jack to connect to an amp, synthesizer, or any other kind of equipment designed to alter your instrument's "voice", if you wish, and c) a min-max control knob to...

This is a seriously well-engineered pedal. It's extremely solid and weighs a ton - an advantage and a disadvantage, I suppose. It comes with fixings for screwing to a board, with cutouts and holes on the pedal base to accommodate the screws, which is a nice touch. The whole thing feels very high quality. The 'throw' of the pedal and the way it feels underfoot are great - a nice wide range of operation that beats those pedals based on a wah chassis for feel (like the Mission VM pro, for example) and makes swells and minor alterations much easier. The buffered output is in my opinion a good thing, and the option of the direct out is a useful touch, too. The 10db boost you can dial in from the rotary control is a useful addition though i have no current need for it. Maybe i'll find one...

Wow, the build quality and smoothness of this control has to make it to the top of and pedal owners or synth owners list. It is reasonably compact for the average boot :) All connections are sensibly placed at the top of the pedal, so that pedal board width is not used up. Of course, up to you how much room to give it... but I have it in a tight slot between other pedals and it is easy to use. There is a polarity switch on the back - very useful! You can use this to invert one of the outputs... meaning that as one thing fades out, another fades in, for example. So you could blend from one delay to another effect... the potential is there for many creative applications. Did I mention it is well made?

This expression pedal is specifically designed for use with the Line 6 Helix units. I have the rack version of the Helix and the separate foot controller. Unlike the floor version of the Helix, the separate floor controller does not have an expression pedal. While many other pedals work with the Helix, the Mission L6H allows both treadle and button control. It connects to the Helix floor controller or to the main rack with 2 standard mono TS cables. 1 jack deals with the treadle and the other deals with the toe switch. The amount of control it gives to the Helix is staggering. It can be just a volume control. Or pressing the toe down can activate a wah, turn on a drive pedal and change the amp model in use. It can be mapped to drive levels within a pedal too, or change reverb mix, or the...

I use the Dunlop pedal as an Expression pedal for the Kemper Profiling Amp. Works perfectly for controlling volume and pitch (like a Whammy pedal) when set up as expression pedal with the Kemper. Compared to my previous set up - tube amp with a (twice as expensive) boutique volume pedal on the pedalboard - the Dunlop is a huge step forward: adjustable resistance - it was easy to set it up for my personal preference. No mechanical noise when quickly moving to the toe-down position. Fantastic, sturdy build quality. Good looks. If I lost it, I'd buy it again in a heartbeat. Great pedal.
