Expression Pedal turns OFF Roland VR09

[Lenny Keys]

Ok this is bizarre. Occasionally (and co-incidently always at the same venue), my Yamaha FC7 Expression Pedal (with the polarity reversed to work with Roland logic) turns OFF my Roland VR09... sometimes disabling it for an entire set before it will power up again.

Has anyone had similar issues or have suggestions how to fix? Thank you!

I used to use one and it would reboot my PC3 whenever I depressed the pedal. I could make it happen on demand, however it would not reboot it in my basement which has cement floor, only at venues where there is typically carpet. I purchased a Roland EV-7 (not the shxtty EV-5) which has a long throw similar to FC7. It has never rebooted the PC3. If you can find an EV-7 I would pick one up, they are discontinued,expensive and hard to find. My next choice would be a Crumar EXP10 (there are two used ones on Reverb).
