Nubus is tabula rasa
Default my FV-500H will flip your lid

so I bought one of these:
http://www.roland.com/products/en/FV-500H/index.html
and I hooked it up to a line 6 dl4's expression pedal input. actually you have to hook up to the volume pedal output when you use it into the line 6, because line6 is stupid. anyway, it might be handy for you to keep in mind that you can use a volume pedal for an expression pedal if you have an insert cable. a volume pedal like this is WAY easier to use than some flimsy plastic thing.
um... this thing rules setup like this. I'm making exploding sounds and bleeps, right alongside portishead-like echoes.

There is a small part where the pedals were used on a song we recorded last week, but it didn't really show the full potential. I'll definitely work it into another track and keep you posted.

Actually... the more I work with this setup the more frustrated I am getting! It seems like I may have a defective dl4. I'm trying to get an exchange this week. That, and I guess I was supposed to get a 500L not 500H. I'm a wreck!
