It works, but it's relatively flimsy. Exactly the same as the Line6 expression pedal, except with a permanently attached cord.
Good Points: Works.
Bad Points: Breaks.
Expensive, for what it is.

got this thing to use with a few of my effects and it does the trick. its the first expression pedal i've used so i'm not sure how it stacks up. it has a pot connected to the footpedal for that action and a knob on the side for minimum setting (value of the pedal in its furthest up position) which is pretty cool, though thats generally a set and leave it there deal for me. usually on 0 or 1 so i get a wide sweep with the pedal.
Good Points: works fine with the pedals i bought it for, and i'm sure it'll work fine with any other CV-controlled unit.
Bad Points: flimsy plastic construction, although nice because its light, i can see it breaking somewhere down the line.

i got one of these to use with the PS3 pedal for pitch shifting, but now i also use it with a couple synths and my boss ph3 pedal for leslie-style phase shifting control. its very verstile, very expensive for how little it is, and its a nice thing to have, or to make if you need one.
Good Points: very durable... mine has lasted 3 tours without a problem
Bad Points: PRICE... the electronics are 2 pots a resistor and a cord. roland charges WAAAAAAAAY too much for these. make your own!
