Think of the EV-5 in this case as sort of a valve for the gain of a sine wave (tone) that is being generating by max. Max sends the sine wave tone out to the FW400, which goes to the pedal, out of the pedal and back into the FW400, into max, and then max measures how much the pedal is decreasing or increasing the gain when I press it. The range of that measurement (in db) is convertd into numbers, 0-127, which I can convert into any parameter range. Ta da! Once you get to the world of numbers in max, the rest is just manipulation. Kris ----- Original Message ----- Wow! that's really cool! a little over my head , but I get the 'jist of it. FYI, The Ernie Ball Jr can switch swell rates. From their site: "Behind the jack area under the footplate is a micro taper switch which provides the user two distinct volume swell rates". -Qua I am no expert, but Jeff Kaiser, who has done some research on this with max/msp, says that any volume pedal will work, because it is just inducing an amplitude change. .......if you find a volume pedal that can switch from linear to log, then it would work out of the box. -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web LIVE - Free email based on Microsoft® Exchange technology - http://link.mail2web.com/LIVE
