Calibrating external expression pedal?

[billlorentzen]

I bought one of the Line6 expression pedals, and I'm trying to get it to have a better gradation from low to high (or left to right). My built-in pedal works fine, and I know how to calibrate it.

 

The root problem is the pedal is a ridiculous POS. The pot inside actually passes 100% and then goes up again at the end of its rotation. Additionally the mechanical design sucks and the action of the pedal is jerky - totally not pro gear. It was cheap though!

 

Does anyone know of a calibration method for the auxiliary pedal in the HD itself?

There's known issues with the EX-1. I use one and it works ok for what I do. The Mission Engineering Pedal is the one to look at. They make quite a few pedals.

 

There's a fix for the EX-1 somewhere on the net if you search you should find something about adding resistors to open up the range of motion.

Don't know about the percentage problem. I have one and it works on that aspect fine. If you loose the nut a bit where the pedal itself attaches then you get jerkness out of it, or taylor the smoothness a bit. 

 

To cabrate it you unplug it and calibarte the on-board pedal. Since it supposed to function just a Ex-2 then it should get it as close as it's gonna get.  

 

And yep, it's a plastic piece of junk.

No software adjustment inside the Pod for this, if that's what you're asking.

Thanks, guys. I guess if I want accurate control, it's the Mission pedal.
