Thank you very much for help Steve.
I appreciate it a lot.
Just I am not sure about this 0-5 volt.
I bought behringer foot controller fcv100, which supposed to control volume and/or cv (50 k Ohm)
Manual from behringer is very short and says in cv mode you don't need any battery. I will give it a try in a second, and surely I will share my experience here.
If it works - that's brilliant way to control mk-6'pk6 (emu command station too) filter or any other parameter;
well in theory it should send midi cc on midi out 
let's see......

thank you again and have a nice day
