Expression Pedals

Plug an expression pedal into the exp jack to control the freq knob. Any expression pedal with a 10k-50k ohm linear pot 

will work. For example, the Roland EV-5, Moog EP-3, M-Audio EX-P, or Mission Engineering EP-1.  You can also use an 

Electro-Harmonix 8-Step Program to sequence the sampling rate.  For control voltages, 0-3.3V on the tip is the correct 

range, but so you can send +5V and use the freq knob to bring it down to 3.3V.  The bitmap has current limiting in case 

you use a TS cable, but it is best to use a 1/4” TRS cable with the ring unconnected.  The Expert Sleepers “floating ring” 

cable is an easy way to do that.  We also sell suitable cables at store.redpandalab.com. 

When an expression pedal is used, the freq knob sets the maximum value. If your expression pedal has a minimum value 

knob, you can control the knob over a specific range of values.

This product is warranted against defects in materials or workmanship for one (1) year from date of original purchase.  It 

does not cover damages or wear resulting from accident, misuse, abuse, or unauthorized adjustment and/or repair.

Sample Rate

When a signal is sampled at too low a rate, upper 

harmonics fold back to lower frequencies.

Bit Depth

Bit reduction reduces the number of allowed signal 

levels.  The smoothness of the output signal is related to 

both the input signal level and the number of bits.
