The EDP foot pedal is optional, but you should definitely go for it.

Sounds ok to me. As long as you watch out for mic feedback.

But please try not to buy a "bad crystals EDP". This problem has been reported earlier on this list (check the archives). Myself, I bought a new EDP not long ago and I cannot use it for concerts because I sometimes have to flip the power switch on and off for more than one minute before the machine lights up. Not the best way to enter the stage... ;-> 

However Gibson has promised to exchange "bad crystals" a.s.a.p. but right now there seems to be no "ok crystals" around. So you can spare yourself a lot of problems by simply checking, in the store, that the unit you are buying is booting up fine. Although I'm reviewing the EDP for a magazine that will introduce it to lots of young guitar players, Gibson couldn't find me fresh crystals.
