Subject:Re: Using a Yamaha FC7 pedal with Roland VK-7?
I have two FC-7 pedals (Korg calls them an OX-1) connected to each
other in tandem (side-by-side) with one of the small four-screw
plates which were on the bottom of each - solid as a rock and easy to
carry this way.
I use them with my CX3 and Roland A-33/76 key controller - it's vinyl
feet fit perfectly on top of the CX3, two inches wider on each side -
MIDI'd to an SC-8820 Sound Canvas and a V5; a very nice-looking setup
and easy to play.
One FC-7 is connected to the CX3 Expression pedal socket. The other
is connected to a female stereo socket 'Y' adapter which has two
short mono cables with red and white RCA ends. These are reversed
and connected to a second one-piece stereo 'Y' adapter in the A-33's
Expression pedal socket. Each pedal performs identically to the
other by reversing the phase (or whatever it's called) for the Roland.
I was using Ratshack adapters, but didn't think the small-gauge wires
with RCA's to the female stereo connector would be serviceable for
long (the solid adapters are fine). A friend got me a heavier gauge
cable to RCA's and female connector; something like LiveWire or
Monster cable quality.
