The Range Adjust Knob sets the bottom point of the expression range.

Review: Very good for plugging in two devices - Very good for plugging in two devices. I have some problems about the sweeping range with my Line 6 m5, but I'm also running it through a big muff deluxe and that works great. Sturdy, but takes up real estate on the board. I would recommend
Review: Feels cheap. Snapped a screw. Although works fine. - I bought this because i have another source audio pedal that can use the hot hand as a control, so i can technically control 3 pedals with it. I figured this pedal would be built well for the money. i also figured the 4 extra screws with the tapered heads were for if you wanted this on a pedalboard and had to remove the feet. As the back plate is also tapered under the feet. Upon trying to do so, the first one snapped in half, and is stuck in the body of the pedal. I had to drill out the other 3 screw holes to actually let the screw become flush with the cover without snapping. theyre tiny screws and are very easy to snap. Very easy. I know expression pedals arent complex circuit wise, its literally just 2 potentiometers to a trs jack. even with the hot hand thing it looks very minimal on the inside. so i guess i was hoping for the money the build quality would be a bit better... its much lighter than my wah pedal thats the same size. Its also not as smooth as the wah. all that being said it does work fine as an expression pedal, both 1/4 jacks and the hot hand jack. Still miffed you have to countersink the screw holes. Honestly id rather just buy some cheap plastic one knowing what i know now and spend the extra money on other gear. Oh well.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work with the electro harmonix pitch fork?**
A: Yes, I was using them together for about a year.  Works perfectly, just need a standard TRS cable.

**Q: Is it only for expression, or will it act as a volume pedal as well?**
A: It does not default to volume expression if you try to randomly plug it into your signal chain. That being said, it will work with Boss/Roland style “tip hot” expression inputs. It’s true value comes when used with any Source Audio pedal. When used with SA pedals, you can adjust volume, and or, any dial options and or multiple options on the pedal. If you’re not invested in the SA ecosystem, buy a Boss or Ernie Ball.

**Q: Does this require a balanced TRS cable?**
A: Yes, and it came with one that is about 3ft long. Although it will control two pedals, so it would have been nice if it came with two.

**Q: Does this come with the 1/8 cable to connect to source audio pedals?**
A: Yes, it comes with one 1/8 cable

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Great addition to your pedal board
*by T***S on September 22, 2015*

I had a lot of trouble finding many reviews for this pedal before I purchased it, and almost nothing in the way of YouTube videos, so I figured I'd take a moment and write a review. I have 2 new stomp boxes ( the EHX GOOD VIBES and the EHX PITCH FORK) and was in need of a dual expression pedal. I have to say I'm impressed. This pedal works as advertised, at least with my EHX pedals, I love that it has a traditional feel, similar to that of a Wah. It appears to be of great build quality, and is totally worth any real estate it occupies on your pedal board. It's very responsive and gives me Hendrix-esque control over my Uni-vibe and I can dial in all the Tom Morello tones when combined with my Pitch Fork. I was cautious due to the lack of info from other guitarists out there, but I took the leap and I'm quite pleased. Will definitely be looking into othe products from Source Audio. Highly recommended.
