DocTrucker Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Just had a look at the Zoom FP02 pedal for the Zoom B3n and it's around £50. Any idea if it's just a variable potentiometer? Are expression/volume pedals standard and interchangeable or bespoke? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itu Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Many if not most of the exps are simple pots in pedal format. They may be hi-Z (like 250k) or lo-Z (like 25k). Some have an extra pot for minimum vol or similar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamIAm Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 (edited) I've just had a play and can confirm that a Sonicake Volwah pedal, connected using a TRS cable from the Volwah expression port to the Zoom control port, does work as an expression controller for my B3 (even tho its circuit is different to the one I posted above)... I would expect it to also work on a B3n. https://www.sonicake.com/products/vexpress £36 from Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B077PVVC38/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Sam x Edited June 23 by SamIAm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocTrucker Posted December 31, 2023 Author Share Posted December 31, 2023 That's excellent, thanks. I was tempted to print one rather than pay £50! Far more likely to find other pedals second hand than just the one specific one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
