Subject:Re: Bass Pedals for my BX3

Should do. Didn't mention before because there is a downside: this way the volume of the bass will be completely independent from that of the organ. Could even be an hilight, actually, if you manage to connect a volume pedal as well;

Of course that will work only if you're willing to play with a computer…A bonus is that doing that will also improve your sound, especially if you don't use a real leslie.
