RE: active/passive volume & controller pedal

["Future Perfect" <artmusic@gte.net>]

  To control the volume of my Roland M-GS64, via my Roland GI-10 
guitar/midi
interface, I use a standard passive Ernie Ball pedal to send midi volume
messages (I have to use an insert cable for this to work, a stereo plug 
into
the back of the GI-10's 'expression' pedal input, and one of the other ends
into the iinput of the pedal, and one into the output). I can also use the
Ernie Ball pedal fro CC messages if plugged into my Ground COntrol (just a
regular cable is needed, plugged into the volume pedal's output). If the
Ernie Ball pedals work with your gear, I recommend them, since they are
built really well, and look like they can withstand just about anything.
