Comments about Roland EV-5 - Expression Pedal:
The usable range of the pedal is about HALF what it should be, IE going from heal down zero position the pedal outputs 0 till at least half way THEN starts going up. Really bad. Looking for a way to fix it, but why should I have to tear apart a 70$ item to get it to work.

Comments about Roland EV-5 - Expression Pedal:
The Roland EV-5 works well as a volume controller with my Nord Electro 2 organ patches. Very easy to use and quite responsive. Sensitivity can be callibrated to your personal tastes. Seems to be sturdy enough -- I'll have to see how it holds up over time. Good value for the money.
Pros
- Works as stated
Cons

Comments about Roland EV-5 - Expression Pedal:
I am using this pedal on an Alesis QS6.1 keyboard with no problems. The build quality seems ok, but for the money for a single use pedal I thought it might have been built a little bit more robust. (all plastic) The Alesis version is also a volume pedal and is made of metal.

Comments about Roland EV-5 - Expression Pedal:
At this price, I was expecting a better build quality but this is plastic. It works great and I did not notice dead zone like in other reviews. I'm using it with my MIDI keyboard and I can use it for many reasons with my Home Studio.
