Control of rotary speed with expression pedal

11 Jun 2011, 10:43

Hello,

I have a Fantom X7 and a Roland EV-5 expression pedal. I want to use the expression pedal to control the rotary speed of the organ sounds - not to switch between "slow" and "fast" but to increase the speed step by step as I turn the pedal down and decrease it if I turn the pedal back. Does anyone know if this is possible in general and how to do it?

Thanks and kind regards,

Hervshahn

Here is one way to do it.
Press Menu, then System, and chose pedal. Set the pedal assignment to a controller value for example :02 breath or any other controller value you want. You will need to do a system write or the setting will revert when you power off. Then select your patch that will have the rotary effect applied. Press the effects button and select F4, MFX control for the rotary. In the box under source select :02 breath (or whichever you selected above as the pedal message). In the box under destination select Speed and +63 in the last box. Save the patch.
