I give you ... the option knob

wow... just when I thought human beings couldn't get any lazier

[RichCI]

I don't think it's something for people who are lazy, but something for people who want to change an effect on-the-fly in the middle of a song. I could see using it to change delay time and chorus speed and similar.

Exactly, check out the vids.

 

 

I don't know about you guys but my foot isn't all that dexterous, especially with shoes on.

Psssshhhhh...real men get down there and twist it with their teeth!

[Riffster]

I saw this in a magazine.

 

it looks dorky but I am sure it works.

 

I would say a remote controlled delay pedal should be in the works.

I just use old wooden clothespins not as cool but also not 7.95

 

 

I just took them off the neighbors clothes line 20+ years ago been using the same seven or eight since then

I still don't see why you would need to change your effects in the middle of a song... but I guess these products have their niche.

MXR pedals used to come with these rubber caps that fit over the knobs (I think Dunlop still provides them). They worked well enough even though you'd always end up losing them.

 

The only effect that I change during a song is my vibe pedal and I use an expression pedal for that to change the speed; kinda like going from a slow Leslie speed to a fast Leslie speed only it doesn't really sound like a Leslie. Booker T. changes the speed of his Leslie a LOT during songs, switching from slow for sustained chords and to fast for solos and faster parts.

Down here in Florida, we play barefoot. You can just wrap your toes around the knob and tweak it to your heart's content.

they do, and they work really well.

That knob is a dumb invention, just buy all MXR pedals, it worked for Eddie and Randy

[deepblue]

I think on a pedal with one or two knobs it would be ok, but anymore and itll start looking like a tiny

wind turbine.
