Subject:MIDI organ pedal recommendations?
Guitar Center's marketing worked on me. I've been wanting a Nord C1
for quite some time so I can play organ gigs outside my studio, and
when they sent me a card announcing a 20%-off-everything sale that
would take place for two hours today, I figured I'd go in and see if
they had one in stock. They did, and I walked out with what I think
was a good deal. So far I think it sounds great but I have yet to set
it up next to my A-100/760 combo and A/B them. I'm not sure I really
should, actually. :-)
Anyway, now I'm thinking about pedals. I play (or rather, I'm trying
to learn to play) jazz organ, so I need the pedals for everything to
go right.
I don't necessarily need the whole set of pedals. I definitely need
enough to thump with my left-hand bass lines, and having more than a
full octave of notes would be good but not strictly necessary.
What do other people use? What do you recommend? What's good and bad
about them? How much will I have to spend?
Thanks!
