Hi, all:
I'm a relatively new owner (2 months) of a QS7.1. Love the board, but have been unable to find an Alesis volume pedal locally or online. I resorted to a $29.99 generic volume pedal and have tried to get along with it, but the difficulties are becoming too much to deal with. I get a very uneven response.
Specifically, I have to move the pedal significantly to get any increase/decrease in volume, and then it's always a sudden, extreme change. Makes it impossible to fade in/out or adjust a "layered" effect when playing the QS in tandem with my digital piano from the piano's keyboard.
Yesterday, during the second set, I got so frustrated by this I unplugged the pedal in the middle of a song and used the volume slider for the rest of the gig. Fortunately by that time I could get away with that on the remaining songs.
Can anybody recommend a GOOD pedal and/or source?
Thanks in advance-
Mike
