Hi Ed!

Congratulations - great piece of gear!
> modules, and I¹m wondering what can be done to recreate/impersonate the
signal output by the hi-hat pedal (which of course is MIA). I seem to
remember hearing that the pedal is some kind of optical device, and that
using a normal footswitch can damage the switch or (God forbid) the module.
I think that is more true with the SDS-7 but I'm not sure... Both my units
miss the pedals.
> Can anyone shed light on this particular subject? Thanks in advance for

help I¹m excited to be a part of this group it¹s nice to know I¹m not
the only one who¹s brain was warped hexagonally as a youth by Thomas Dolby,
Naked Eyes and King Crimson :-)
I've used a normal switch with my SDS-V för years now and it works fine. It
only switch on and off the decay though. You don't get that "closing" effect
with that. Thomas DOlby - what a forgotten hero!!!
> Peace and love,
...and understanding! :)
electronically yours, jesper
