Yes. And I have seen the very same pedals without the "Roland" nameplate
for less than half the price.

The Yamaha FC-9.

It can be switched to FC-7 mode (I've used it sucessfully with the VL7
and the CS-50), or to an optoelectronic stereo volume pedal.
The only drawback is that you cannot adjust it for sitting or standing
position like the FC-7.
