Cheap Noise pedal with half pedal function

Post by mariczer »

I made a prototype continuos pedal from a regular on/off switch sustain pedal. Now the pedal has a continuos mode for half pedal funnction and works perfect with a noise pedal function. I installed a led diode and a photoresistor in the sustain pedal. Now the impedance is from 500 ohms to a fully closed circuit. When pressing the pedal, the diode illuminates the photoresistor more and more, causing less and less resistance. Work perfectly. The cost is around 10 Euro including the sustain pedal.
