reversing expression pedal

Post by BLABLABLA »

Hello,
I use my ev-5 expression pedal to control the master volume.
Is there a way to reverse it? meaning that when I'll press it down it will lower the volume instead of increasing it

I don't think you can set it up (reverse volume polarity) globally, but you can do it in IFX.

One way would be to assign vol/exp pedal as an AMS control with a value of 100% for EQ. EQ should have all sliders fully to the left (effectively cutting volume to zero) @ 0%/Dry so that initially this EQ does nothing and the patch sounds at normal volume.

When the pedal comes on full (100% positive control motion) then the EQ goes toward the "wet"/silent EQ setting and it should be as pedal were cutting off volume.

This trick works within a program or combi - you just need to figure out how to route it to mute multiple sources if you want to do that, and to make sure that the pedal is not inadvertently controlling other effects that have been set up to receive and use this controller. In combi mode you should be able to use MIDI filter to disable any unwanted control by the pedal.
