ParticipantHi, I’m thinking about getting an expression pedal for my H90. Are there any recommended models? Thanks

ModeratorEventide StaffHi tomerz,
Eventide recommends any TS or TRS expression pedal with a 10K – 25K potentiometer. Models I know work well:
Mission Engineering SP-H9, Dunlop DVP3/DVP4, Lehle Dual Expression, DOD Mini Expression, AMT Ex-50, Boss EV-30, Ernie Ball VP Jr 25K

Participant<p style=”text-align: left;”>Thanks joecozzi. The Ernie Ball VP Jr 25K is a volume pedal – am I understanding correctly that it works as an expression pedal using a ts cable without connecting the guitar to the input?</p>

ModeratorEventide StaffThat’s correct, but of all the ones mentioned, it’s the one I would least recommend because as a volume pedal, it has a logarithmic taper. A linear taper is preferred so that the majority of the reaction doesn’t happen on the ends of the range of expression. My personal recommendation is to invest in a dedicated expression pedal.

ParticipantI have 3 x Boss EV30 pedals which I move around for a variety of uses. They actually have twin pots/outputs so they can fulfil a variety of functions on a pedalboard. Only downside is that they don’t have a grippy surface so I find in a home studio it pays to either wear something with soles or use them barefoot. Shiny socks don’t work well. Apart from this they work very well with the H90.

ParticipantRandom aside: I’d long used a Roland EV-5 for expression stuff (on H9, other effects), and it works fine, but I recently got a Dunlop Volume (X) Mini, and I was astounded that it actually stayed in place when you took your foot off the pedal, unlike the Roland one. Works great and nice and small (although almost too small for size 12 shoes). Plays very well with my H9, so I’d assume it’d do the same for an H90.
