Expression pedal compability with KPA

Hi,

I just received my KPA and I had a Line 6 EX-1 expression pedal lying around so I tried to get it to work to control the wha with no luck. As the manual says, I used a TRS(stereo) cable and connected it to pedal 1, changes the System menu accordingly, but the wha loaded in Stomps A does not respond to it.

So I was wondering is there some expression pedal that aren't compatible with the unit and in which case which one are known to be working fine?

Thanks.

The Line 6 EX-1 has no stereo jack, that's why it doesn't work with the KPA.
The Boss FV-5 has one and works fine.

Sorry for the questions, but I just want to make sure I'm buying the right thing...

Regarding the Boss pedal, do you mean the FV-500 or FV-50? For those you need a Y cable I guess...

Regarding the Dunlop pedal do you mean the new DVP-1? It is stereo even if there is only a single input?

Thanks.

Sorry, it calls Ernie Ball now (Was Dunlop when I bought it).

Both pedals work fine. FV-500 has a expression jack, you can use it with a stereo cable. For FV-50 you need a Y-cable.
