behringer FCV100 expression pedal and MS20?

Post by ronni »

hi guys!
i wonder if the behringer FCV100 exp.pedal [that seems to have a CV out] could be used to control some functions of the MS20... and, if yes, how [any need for some special kind of cable for example].
if any of you has experience and would like to share some tips i'd be gratetful.

Look at the signal that the pedal puts out and if it can be changed. Most pedals don't do negative voltages generally but chase down the specs before you buy or ask Behringer support. Check what the MS-20 is expecting for which sockets and if they will accept what the pedal is sending. I have an original MS-20 and it wants mostly +/-5v, I dunno what the remake wants though.
Stuff I'm using: Umm right now, well there's a Volca Drum, a Micro Freak, an ADX-1, a Pulse, a Blofeld, a UNO Drum, KeyStep/Beatstep Pro/Keystep Pro (one of each), a Circuit, a LiveTrak L-12 and this nonsense: The Brief-case as it was about a bit over a year ago (the the complete ridiculous GAS monster collection here)and here
