“It. Is. So. Much. Fun.
Connecting the Expression Out into my Ground Control Pro was a breeze. I was getting MIDI CC data into Ableton Live in no time. In Ableton, I mapped the ring onto a Filter and a Beat Repeat plugin, and tried it on a trip-hop loop. For about 3 hours. It's just infectious. It's like scratching live audio.
After playing with this for the last few hours, I can safely say:
- It's awesome.
- I can't wait to try this onstage.
- This is going to blow my fans' minds.
- The design of all the packaging and components is beautiful.
- Congratulations. This thing kicks ass.”

“I didn't get a chance to really try the wireless unit (rehearsals and live with the band yet) so I used the Wah with an external expression pedal.”
“I'm in love with the pedal. I can get any wah sound I ever wanted, and the guys at band loved it as well.”
