Alright, which one of you lot just beat me to it?!??!! I was the winning (and only) bidder for 6 days. 6 DAYS! Completely forgot about it until the last second and someone jumped in and got it...;(

Well done, whoever you are! Oh well, time for another eBay search....

(Sorry, had to vent about it!)

Michael did a workaround to connect common Roland pedals to SDSV/7. Basically an adaptor with a resistor inside. Rather simple. He probably already posted it somewhere here, otherwise, Michael, could you please?

Not me, but I'd like one. :)

While on the subject of pedals. They don't use the same, V and 7, right?
I've got one like the one in the picture so I guess it's for SDS-7. I
bought it from WT a while ago and almost forgot about it.

Same pedal for both units? Have I dreamt that the levels are different?

They both work with the same pedal. I own them both but only one pedal.
I've also faked it on the '7' with a Roland FS5-U.

That sounds interesting. Would prefer the genuine article, but it could another long wait before a SDS7 HH pedal comes up.

Found an earlier post from Mr Buchner about the infrared switch and found (I think) the part online, but not sure how to proceed....(apart from searching for the relevant Roland pedal). Any pointers/advice you could give, Michael?
