Pete’s Gear: Ernie Ball 500k Stereo Volume/Pan Pedal

In 2019, Pete used a Ernie Ball 500k Stereo Volume/Pan Pedal on stage. The panning option is disconnected.

Pete had previously used an Edwards Light Beam volume pedal in his classic-era setup in the 1970s.

On stage, the pedal was placed to the left of the Pete Cornish custom pedal board next to the microphone stand.

Description from Ernie Ball website:

The Ernie Ball 500k Stereo Volume Pedal features a 500k potentiometer suitable for the audio path of passive or active instruments. Attached to the footplate is a switch that provides the user two distinct operating modes (volume or pan). The stereo 500k pedal is extremely versatile and can be used in stereo or mono applications. Utilizing TRS stereo cables, use the B input and B output. For use as a typical pan pedal, switch the toe tap switch to the pan position and use only the A input. The pedal will pan the signal between the A and B outputs.
