Re: volume pedal help



Title: Re: volume pedal help
I just got a used ernie ball volume pedal--my first volume pedal--and find it produces a very slight, gradual increase until the last 1/2" of travel, when it suddenly goes through the entire usable range--as if it's logarithmic rather than linear.  I'm finding it hard to use effectively for anything but full on-full off shifts, when what I want is the ability to modulate volume more subtly.  So my question:  is this normal?  Do I just need to work on my technique, or is there something I'm missing?  another pedal that might work better for my needs?
thanks for any and all help--

This can also happen if you connect the pedal to a lower impedance that its potentiomenter is.
