Hi,

bought EP-3 pedals yerterday,
noticed that there is a sudden rise when just about near full acting position,
is that particularity could be qualified "normal" to all of you ?

Hi,

I thought it was related to sounds I was working with but no...I looked inside at two of them...
I think it is the pedal potentiometer, the sweepers inside it goes off track when the pedal is pressed all the way down...

To avoid that rise, I have to turn the "setting potentiometer" just about ΒΌ turn backward...
Looks like they're all like that...B100K72 (pedal), B100K (setting knob)

The felt pads on both ends of the pedals are relatively not to compressed...as, I understood,
could contribute to the "overcoursing sweepers"...

What improvement can be done or what am I missing here...again ?

Did you ever solve this problem? I am trying choose between pedals and wondering if the EP3 might be desirable....

Hi,

I never said there was a problem...I was wondering if it was a particularity of the product as all four units do behave same way.
They are built like bulldozers, but I feel they can't just make it over the hill...and far away!
I need more time to experiment with these pedals...before posting any other comments !
I still use them with cables provided.
Just watch your levels when near fully pressed down...was it design on purpose as to have a possible overload signal at the end ?
I think so...it's the operator's choice...
