Ernie Ball VP jr (T1m active mod) as expression pedal

    Hi -


    I currently have a T1m modded vp jr, which I very much like (even if the string is horrible). I want to use it as an expression pedal. I've read some articles about getting stereo Y-split TRS cables and hooking it up to the remote that way, but the articles I have read very clearly started that that method would only work with passive vp jrs, but mine has the active mod on it.


    Is there anything I can do to still use my vp jr as an expression pedal?

    I’m not sure about the active v passive versions but I wouldn’t waste your time trying. The volume pedal has a log taper pot but expression pedals have linear taper pots. I tried using my old old Roland Volume pedal initially but the log taper makes it pretty useless as an expression pedal as all of the range is bunched up in a tiny portion of the travel. You would need to swap out the pot to get anything useable.
