Vibrato sound with an expression pedal

Post by EMG »

I have a Fantom X7. I want to obtain the same vibrato effect you get with the pitch lever, but with an expression pedal so I don't have to play one handed. Please note this is NOT the rotary (Leslie simulation) EFX used for Hammond type sounds. I want the plain vibrato used, for example, in Prince's synth sounds. It's exactly what you get with the pitch lever but I've been unable to do it with a pedal. Thanks!

MENU -> System -> Pedal/DBeam

Control Pedal Assign:

CC76: Vibrato Rate
CC77: Vibrato Depth -> This is probably what you want
CC78: Vibrato Delay

Oooops, my bad

This is really CC01 (modulation), as thats what the lever is really doing.
Altough it worth experimenting with CC77)
