Nope

This pedal needs to be taken out of existence. It lasted me about 6 months and now glitches all over the place. I bought it to do one thing - be an expression pedal - and it can't handle that.

Works great

I got this expression pedal to use it with my Strymon Mobius and my Eventide PitchFactor. The EV-5 works perfect on both. The included cable is long enough (2 meters). The pedal is made of plastic, which isn't a popular choice in the world of effects pedals but it significantly reduces the weight of the pedal and it seems to be robust.

Fine pedal, not so straight foreward setup

Bought this to use for volume (organ swell) and expression for my Roland Vr-730 keyboard, and find it a very usable addition. At first, it does take some time to get the pedal setup correctly to fully work. But once you've got it working it works great. Its has a nice and 'heavy' feel to it, so you can make some really precice adjustments. Really cool for your organ swell, but also for some effects. It must be said, though, that (mine at least) only works with the Roland. I've also tried it to work on a Yamaha keyboard, but that doesn't seem to work. Something to keep in mind if you are searching for a more 'general' pedal.

Solid

A decent, stable expression pedal. Could be a bit weightier, but pretty solid.

Thumbs-up

Good quality, sturdy build, smooth movement.

Really useful add-on for my Roland synth, can assign different functions to it and then both hands are busy, it is good to do something with your foot.

Lightweight and compact expression pedal

It does what is advertised. Quality is good and fits my pedalboard nicely.

Solid pedal

I bought this pedal for my boss katana. You can plug it either in the amp, or the gafc footswitch which I have as well. It works as a master volume controller, or a wah pedal when you turn on that effect. The pedal is light and made of plastic so maybe not the best option for people with heavy feet.

I mean, it is Roland!

Pedal works smoothly, I use it for volume, organ rotor, and or synth effects with Nord Stage EX.

Excellent job from Roland!

Perfect

Works perfectly, just be sure to check compatibility before ordering. This one works perfectly with Arturia Midi Keys.
