I have both a Yamaha Expression pedal and a technics Expression pedal. Can either be used with this new E 80 or do I have to buy yet another expression Pedal?
I don't want to plug in one of the two I have and blow up a circuit board
Thanks for your reply

Get the EV-5..what's another $75..

Try them,,you won't hurt anything..I think I recall using an old Yamaha expression pedal with Roland, but the EV-5 is compact and so smooth..

so is the Yam pedal but I hate to waste any money if I don't need to.
Waste not want not. Did you forget what your granny taught you

PS: I will just have to wait until you or Donnie have one to sell me for half price

Contact your local dealer, as he should be able to tell you what works with what.
Hope this helps

MY local dealer is a piano and organ retailer and doesn't even know how to turn on or demo an E 80.

The EV-5 is ok, but if you are an organ player, or plan to use the Hammond section a bunch, you might like to try the EV-7. It's a lot more expensive, but it has a similar throw to a B3 volume pedal, and can make a difference with your organ playing....

BEBOP, the yam pedal DOES NOT work w/the newer Rolands, unlike earlier models-- you need to get the ev-5. I got burned on this too, and the ev-5 is flimsy, way overpriced and not anywhere near the quality of the big yammy pedal. sorry to be the bearer of bad news... Mo

Well, than can I just change the polarity on this pedal and use it?

INFO:
I just plugged the Yam FC7 expression pedal into the E 80 and it works great without problem.
I tried the technics expression pedal and it worked the opposite of what it should so I would have to change the polarity to make it louder when I push down on it.
but the Yam pedal works great.
