After 4 hrs I still haven't been able to get the Expression Pedal work. How does one activate it?

I'm not expert, but i bought mine about a month ago, and have been using it every day with no issues. Not sure how familiar you are with the pedal so far, but in the case of this pedal, reading the manual is not only recommended, it is a necessity if you want to understand how to program it and set the effects up for a live performance, or even to use it adeptly at home. The expression pedal only affects certain effects. When an effect that uses the pedal is selected, a little red light turns on beside the pedal to indicate that you can use it to adjust the effect. If it has no effect at all, even on an effect where the expression pedal light is lit up, then follow the instructions in the manual on how to re-calibrate the expression pedal. It's very easy. If it still does not work after re-calibrating it, perhaps it's a defect.

the expression pedal only works with certain effects but it has worked properly on my stomp box. look in the owners manual to see if there is something you need to do to activate it. call tech support or send it back in and ask for a new device. hope this helps at all as I have not had that problem nor know how to directly fix it. best of luck!

Make sure you have put in new AA batteries also try pressing and holding the power button on the back for 3-5 seconds

Most likely, it's broken... I assume you've put batteries or supplied the pedal with an adapter.The "expression pedal" literally plays the filter or turns it off. Put it on a default distortion setting and then strum the guitar with the pedal pushed all the way forward, then bring it back down. If nothing happens, it's just another piece of junk pedal they've made and sold.

I use with amplitude on my ipad3. The pedal itself has no effects on its own

I was breaking my head trying to figure it out. I just kept turning the knob towards the right side and after a few seconds, you'll see one of the pedals rising a bit. Do it to preference, but I was finally able to raise my pedals and now it feels like I'm doing something!

The expression pedal uses neither. It just plugs into the multi-effect pedal. I'm assuming it uses the same active technology that a guitar does.

I apologize for the delay in responding. My tension knob works just fine by turning it to tighten or to loosen. Maybe a defective pedal exerciser was shipped to you. I'd ask for a replacement!! Good LUCK!!

Sorry, I do not have any experience with the MS50G, but looking at the product specs, I do not see the option for connecting the expression pedal.

Just keep pressing the Mode key until it comes up. It's a bit finicky but it does work.

I have the voice live touch original. You can change what the pedal does -turn on off looping -move to a different setting -you can find instructions for it on voice council. com http://support.tc-helicon.com/entries/21056981-VoiceLive-Touch-Switch-3-control

I bought it for use on a mac, which despite some reports doesn't really work well with osx. The pedal defaults to 3 keyboard keys (a,s,and d I think), and relies on a keyboard mapping utility to customize. If you can find the software download I would suggest trying that w/ a regular keyboard. If the software remaps those to alt/control properly then you are probably good to buy the pedal. This is a very generic product and I was not able to find much support. edit: post deleted and re-posted to remove my employer name.

I know this is a very old message, but apparently this is a common issue with this machine...You press the foot pedal and first it just make some noise, then the machine starts at maximum speed... Well, I've discovered that if before pressing the pedal you lower the needle (by rotating the wheel towards you) until it's in a low position (either near the fabrick, or sticking a bit into it), then the machine will start, slowly, if you press the pedal slightly...You won't need to press a lot, and it will be easier to control speed. I hope this will be useful to people having this problem with this machine...

The Nova System does not include any expression pedal, but any exp pedal with a linear pot with an impedance comprised between 25 and 50 KOhm will work. Ive tested it with a Boss FV-300L with no issues.

click on Express Scribe, select Preferences, select pedals, Controller SetUp, next, you should then see a list of options that you can apply to each pedal

Elise, I never bothered reading the manual, so here's some basic instruction for using the presets only: 1.) Move the pedals forward and the screen should power on. 2.) Hit the UP arrow once, the (tiny, tiny) menu item at the top should say 'Manual'. 3.) Hit the UP arrow again, the top item should now say 'Program'. 4.) Then hit the 'Mode' button once, you should see 'P1'. 5.) Use the arrows to scroll through the six preset programs. If you pause for a second, each preset will be represented by a graphic of what you can expect. 6.) Choose one, hit 'Start', the timer starts. 7.) Now use the up/down arrows to increase or decrease resistance overall. I was able to customize my own hilly presets one bar at a time, but the presets were sufficient, so I just used those. Hope this helps.

I'm sorry, I don't know. My OS is 10.7 and it worked aside from the pedal problem.

The effects pedal does NOT have a spring in it. That allows you to set variables (freq,, repeats, speeds) for the different voicings and effects. It is how it should be. You wouldn't want to be performing and have to concentrate on continually resetting your effects pedal.

I had the same issue. The original power cord created a bug, so I used a power cable that came with one of my effects pedals and it worked. No noise at all
