I saw someone mention in another thread that it's not a good idea to hook an expression pedal up to the gain control. The reason stated was it's too much of a CPU hit and to use input trim instead. I can't find it now and wouldn't want to hijack the thread anyway but can anyone expand on this a bit? The threads I have found by searching have been on older units, not the III so I'm wondering if it applies here. I have mine setup this way and haven't noticed any performance issues (yet). I like the way the character of the tone is altered when using the gain versus input trim. To get the same effect with the input trim it seems like I'd have to also be controlling eq and presence a little bit which seems like it would be an even bigger cpu hit but that's why I'm asking the question. I don't know for sure.
This is my favorite element of a particular preset of mine but I want to make sure I'm not setting myself up for a problem down the road. Any input appreciated!
