You know, this makes me feel kinda guilty, as I've yet to program  
something that uses the ribbon, well one patch I have does, and have  
not yet tried using the other pedal option.  On my organ patches (the  
one's I'm using the most and proudest of, I've found the the vcf  
cutoff, edge, release,mix, and resonence to be all I've needed at one  
time, though it'd be fun to sometime puchase another FC7 so that I  
could assign resonance to that, is that's what I use for a wah effect  
on my organ patches.  Just goes to show all the possibilities this  
little board has. That's why I'd love a backup in case this one ever  
dies, I don't think it will anytime soon but I am noticing mor and  
more that my knobs like to fall off.
