Alio45 Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Hi I've recently set up a new pedal board using the HX effects in the four cable method. I've always used a volume pedal so I bought a Zoom FP02M expression pedal (it was quite cheap on eBay). However, even in linear mode there is hardly any volume until the last bit. Would a different expression pedal work better and can anyone recommend one please? Thanks Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratman999 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 I did the same a few years ago, the Zoom FP02M pretty much only works on Zoom units, definitely not Helix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, There are hundreds of recommendations within this forum alone. This one is possibly your cheapest option, lots of folk using these - https://m-audio.com/products/view/ex-p I have 3 of them in almost constant use, 2 connected to my Helix Floor and another hooked up to my Arturia KeyLab 61 MIDI Controller keyboard. Also lots of people using these - If you have sacks full of money, and want to buy a variable resistor in a metal box, then the solution is a Mission pedal. https://missionengineering.com/shop/ep1-l6-line-6/ Hope this helps/makes sense. NOTE: You could buy 10 M-Audio pedals for the price of a single Mission - your choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joanesinu Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 I recently bought a cheap but good one. Electro Harmonix dual expression pedal. It has selectable values that can be used with normal pedals too. It works well with my HX Effects. However, the transition and movement is not as smooth as a mission engineering one, but who cares, it costs half of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brue58ski Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 There's this "official" Line 6 pedal. It's plastic but I've had mine for awhile with no issues. Not put in heavy use though and I do think it's currently overpriced. But here it is. https://www.amazon.com/Line-6-EX-1-Expression-Pedal/dp/B000JKVMJ4/ref=sr_1_2?crid=3TMIN5F2GC1Y3&keywords=ex-1+expression+pedal&qid=1680267431&sprefix=ex-1+expression+pedal%2Caps%2C127&sr=8-2&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.006c50ae-5d4c-4777-9bc0-4513d670b6bc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
