Hi,

  It seems Mission Engineering is the preferred choice, but has anyone actually tried any of the other offerings and able to provide useful review.  They are all in the $25-$50 range.  There are probably others, but these all looked like pretty solid devices.

  • Proline Standard Expression Pedal
  • BEHRINGER FCV100
  • Quik Lok VP-2611
  • M-Audio EX-P Expression Pedal
  • Bespeco Mono Volume Pedal (looks like the same unit as the Quik Lok)
  • Moog ACCEP003 EP3 Expression Pedal
  • Line 6 EX-1 Expression Pedal

Just worked through this on another thread and did some research.

Cry Baby + $11 Dunlop 10k Linear wah/volume pot = Mission EP1-L6 - cool L6 & Mission graphics.

I see a few used ones on eBay for $25-$50 if you dont already have 3 old ones lying around ;)

 

But maybe you just want one ready to go, no soldering required.

Probably going to just find the package I like and if I need to swap a decent 10K pot into it for under $2.00 so be it.  I really wish I could use my Rockman pedal, but it's optical.

I would humbly disagree, using two of them with absolutely no issues.  Are there better? You betcha.  But mine work just fine and the price is reasonable....

I'm glad to hear yours are working well for you. Mine gives very inconsistent results at the heel down position, jumping around all over before it gets to 0, if it gets there at all. I've opened it up to adjust it, but haven't been able to improve its behavior. The problem I see is the pot is just cheap. The ones in my other volume pedals are much higher quality and have lasted for decades, while the L6 pedal went south almost immediately.
