Recently I've purchased the Axe-Fx2 and the MFC-101. I also purchased a Roland EV-5. I connected it to expression pedal jack 2 and I calibrated it (the range is from 0 to 115 instead of 127) in the MFC-101. So far, so good. It controls in my case the volume-block.
However the "sweep"-range of the pedal itself is very short. When I push the pedal downwards and I'm further than halfway, then the volume slightly kicks in. So to me it seems that the range to control the volume is halfway to the end (toe-end) instead from (let's say) 1 to 115.
I have the minimum volume knob (at the EV-5) at 0 and I also tested it with a wah-wah block and in a delay-block (controlling the repeats). Tried a number of different curves (also read some threads about it; for example "building a better volume block"). I get the same results. The "ball" in the curves starts when I push the pedal about halfway down.
Basically I would like to know if other owners of the EV-5 have the same experience? If not; could you share some information how you've handled this? What am I doing wrong?
Thank you in advance for your suggestions
