LEHLE DUAL EXPRESSION AS MIDI-USB EXPRESSION PEDAL

These days making music with a comput-
er is very common. 
The LEHLE DUAL EXPRESSION offers the 
possibility to send MIDI data via the USB 
socket to control software on your com-
puter.
E.g. you can control effects or volume in 
your digital amplifier simulation or ma-
nipulate the filter of your synthesizer in 
your DAW. 
Basically, you can control everything 
which receives MIDI and control changes 
(cc).

How to do this:
1. Connect your LEHLE DUAL 

 

EXPRESSION to your computer via USB 
cable.
2. Your computer should recognize the 

LEHLE DUAL EXPRESSION as external 
USB controller.
3. Open the application which shall re-
ceive MIDI data.
4. Follow the instructions of your appli-
cation and define which parameter the  
LEHLE DUAL EXPRESSION should con-
trol. The LEHLE DUAL EXPRESSION 
sends the control change command 11 
on MIDI channel 1 by default.
5. There you go!
