HEEEEEELP !!!!! New expression pedal, doesn't work after connection.......

Hi Guys 'n Girls,

I've been not using my boths 08s for a longer time now, and I've been nailing on ebay recently a new epression pedal : "BESPECO"  and after plugging the cable into =>  NO FUNCTION............

What I'Ve to do to make that dammned thing working, already trying it with the NORD Electro 3 and polarity is vice versa.

but on the Prophet there is NO EFFECT to perceive at all,..............

What parameters have I to hit, to make the new pedal working ?????

EVERY QUICK HELP IS APPRECIATED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers,

Christian

Have you checked the Sustain value in the Global options?

From the manual:

“Sustain: Norm +, Norm -, Arp +, Arp - – A momentary footswitch connected to the Prophet ’08’s Sustain input can be used either as a sustain pedal or to latch the arpeggiator. The Prophet ’08 can be configured for use with either normally open (+) or normally closed (-) footswitches. When set to Arp+ or Arp-, the footswitch will act as a sustain pedal when the Arpeggiator is off.“

Perhaps check that first and see if it works.

Think the issue with the polarity seemes to be solved, I've found a little switch on the pedal that changes polarity,

As to this everything is fine, but on the prophet - I've also found out, act ped must be enacted with th "Global", but when trying to switch on the Global it doesn't stay there and always jumping to "Program", cannot keep the Global,.......

hit the button several times and sprayed tuner 600 into but NO CHANGE !!!!!!!

What's up there ??? How can I cope ???????????

Hello ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL, I'SOO GLAD !!!!! i'M NOW THE MOST HAPPY MAN ON THE PLANET,

Brian from sequential gave some instructions and "volume-control" with my new pedal is workin fantastically !!!!

It's the best pedal I had in my life, for 'bout 20,00 bucks its worth having all the while.....

RECOMMENDATIONS !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you again, and stay healthy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
