I dig the Mission stuff too.. so they do a pedal that can replace the EP-2? I wasn't sure as on their site they don't have the specs like the resistance or the cable type.

For the record, a 50k pedal with TRS cable will work on all my pedals with expression controls.


I just received the Mission EP-1. It should work similarly to the EP-2 and at least for my usage better. It actually has a 10k pot in it which my intended pedal actually prefers. I should get a more controllable sweep.

119$ for the expression pedal and 24$ for the cable (ouchhhhhhh).
This won't change your tone... What this pedal offer that Moog and Roland don't (more sweap)?

The mission pedals are in heavy duty wah enclosures...most EP's are made of cheap molded plastic.
You don't need to use their cables...it's just for an expression pedal, you don't need fancy NOS mil spec made in the USA stuff, get the cheapest ones you can find.

I will go to a local store this weekend. I will probably only find the Roland here.
Thanks!!
