[sdiy] velocity-sensitivity for footpedals ?

[Crystal]

i have the moog Taurus bass pedals (just the pedals no synth :^[ ) which i
added pressure sensing to by making a very long sensor out of bare copper
plate and black anti-static foam. the sensor runs from the first pedal to
the last tucked up at the inside of the pedal. basically it gives me a
proportional voltage out the harder i press down on a pedal. think i got the
idea of the pressure sensor in Electronic Music Circuits by Barry Klein. i
like it, crystal
