Expression Pedal
An expression pedal can be used to control con-
tinuously variable parameters within Eleven
Rack, such as volume or wah position.
In addition to commonly-used expression ped-
als, a standard volume pedal with a “Y” adapter
cable (two 1/4-inch TS plugs to one 1/4-inch TRS
plug) can be used, though keep in mind that the
taper of the potentiometer in a volume pedal is
exponential, rather than linear as in an expres-
sion pedal.
Momentary Footswitch
(Single or Dual)
Most single or dual momentary footswitches
can be used to toggle various switched functions
within Eleven Rack, such as effects on/off and
cycling through rigs.
Choose a momentary footswitch with a
1/4-inch TS (single switch) or 1/4-inch TRS (dual
switch) connection.
MIDI Foot Controller
You can connect a MIDI foot controller to the
MIDI input on Eleven Rack, providing control
over a larger range of simultaneous parameters.
Display Mode and Visibility
When playing live, you may find it easier to
keep track of what Rig is selected by switching
the display to Simple mode.
