Summer NAMM 2017: Electro-Harmonix introduces super-affordable, flexible Expression Pedal

SUMMER NAMM 2017: Given how many of its stompboxes boast an expression pedal jack, it was only a matter of time before Electro-Harmonix launched its own take, and it has finally arrived in the form of the logically named EHX Expression Pedal.

A single-output expression pedal utilising polymer construction for durability and light weight, the EHX Expression Pedal promises to be able to control virtually any device with an expression input.

The pedal’s sweep can be fine-tuned via a range knob, while its sweep direction can be flipped using the reverse button.

The EHX Expression Pedal is available now for $65.70 (approx £51/€57), and comes with a six-foot TRS cable - you can’t argue with that. See Electro-Harmonix for more info.
