Review: Works perfectly on my Hammond XK-1, using default settings. P-n-P. - My used Hammond XK-1 didn't come with a volume pedal. Or a Leslie foot switch for that matter. I can recommend getting a Yamaha FC-4 foot switch for Leslie and another one for piano sustain pedal. Those are nice, and that's what made me consider another Yamaha product for this expression pedal, which I have missed. There was of course a lot of differing opinion, Hammond v Yamaha v Korg etc. That's how these things go. I was a little puzzled by some reports of the pedal range being fast or slow or touchy. I need not have worried about that, and since I could see only one other Hammond mentioned in these reviews I thought I had better write something. It works great. I just replaced my main board battery which died accidentally, due to longer than normal inactive storage. It wasn't low, it was 100% dead and no volts. All presets got reset to factory values, and the whole instrument went back to default-everything. When I plugged in the FC-7 it worked perfectly, immediately. Right outta the box. Case closed. If you are controlling your Hammond XK-1 by the panel volume knob, you really need one of these. Instructions on how to interface it: Open box, plug it into the little hole back there. If that fails somehow, your default foot controller settings may have gotten changed. There is more info below, specific to checking that on the XK-1. If the FC-7 doesn't work perfectly on the first try. The FC-7 is heavy duty, rubberized, of substantial construction and then some, and has a nice spring detent at the full volume position so you don't hit a hard stop when you are maxxed out. Yeah, you can adjust the instrument gain settings so detent is actually about 90% of full volume, and then you have an extra 10% boost whenever you push it beyond the spring detent. But I just prefer simple. Cord storage is under the toe end, wrap it around the small reel and 1/4 inch plug-holder down under there. I haven't tried the Hammond original equipment pedal because I didn't know if it was worth the premium price, but this one is more like it. Now I know how much I missed the foot pedal. The FC-7 is a nice piece of equipment, and a suitable addition to the outfit. Happy I bought it. ===== The remainder of this is info specific to the Hammond XK-1. It may help if you can't understand the manual... it is very difficult for me, as it was written with Japanese sentence construction. Of course the English is very good, it's just that I find I can read the words and it takes me a while to decipher what it really said. If your pedal is jumpy or too fast, you may need to restore your default settings, listed here: Menu Button, #4, up, up. (The up key is numeral 8) Source = Pedal (Normal) (This is the default setting. Spin the Value knob if you need to change it.) (There is a Monitor Value displayed next. Mine runs smoothly from 0 to 127, when operating the pedal with defaults. Check yours here.) Right, right, right, right. (The right key is the numeral 2) LEVEL shows minus 35, the default value. (Spin the Value knob if you need to change it.) LF LIMIT shows minus 20, the default value. HF LIMIT shows minus 30, the default value. Gain shows 110%, the default value. Push the Exit button, then Play button. For the Yamaha FC-4 Leslie foot switch, that is a tip/sleeve plug. (I call it a mono 1/4" phone plug.) The default foot switch settings work for me. But note that there is a second set of settings provided for a different plug, and the unused settings must be disabled. (The default is, both types are enabled!) Menu Button, #4, up, up, up. MODE, TIP: LESLIE S/F= ALT (This is the default for alternating operation. Push for fast, push again for slow.) Next, go cursor-right one more step. MODE, RING: Twirl the Value knob to say OFF. Push the Exit button, then Play button. If you somehow have a foot switch that is a Tip/Ring/Sleeve type (I call it a stereo 1/4" phone plug) then I believe you need to reverse both values. That is, MODE, TIP should be switched off and the MODE, RING should say LESLIE S/F = ALT. I don't have a weird plug to check that with, but the idea is to choose one and disable the other. So you definitely don't want both plug mode types to be enabled at once. You can still get it to work by pulling out the plug very slightly and playing with it, but that doesn't seem like such a great operating idea.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work as an expression pedal with the Line 6 M13? Is a "volume pedal" the same thing as an "expression pedal"?**
A: According to Line 6 support, NO, this is not compatible.  https://line6.com/supportarchivenew/thread/19057/

As mentioned by Harry De Gray Cat, "volume pedal" is usually used to refer to an "audio attenuation" pedal, that you'd use in-line between an instrument and the amp, just like most guitar pedals.  "Expression pedal" is a control input into a device (like the Line 6 M13) to control some parameter, the default usually being volume but it could also control the frequency of a filter sweep, like a wah pedal, or the delay on an echo effect.  So, it's more versatile, but it needs to plug into some device that implements the effect; it's just a controller.

**Q: Used or new plz ?**
A: Always new when it comes to electronics.

**Q: can this make swells on the guitar?**
A: The Yamaha FC7 Control Pedal can NOT be used directly inline with a guitar. However, the pedal may be compatible with some amplifiers/effects units if they have a "Controller" or "Expression" input.

**Q: Can I use this for guitar**
A: YES you can use it for a guitar if you have the right multi effects pedal. I just bought a Zoom G3 and it works all the expression pedal effects not just the volume. I've used it with the Zoom G1, G1N and the A2 pedals and it always worked. Just plug it into the Control In input jack.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great with a Yamaha CK88
*by D***L on March 5, 2026*

I can not believe the quality of this pedal for the money. I have been playing for 50 years and this reminds me of the built in pedal on my old B3. It's heavy duty all the way. I am using it with a Yamaha CK88 and it works perfectly. I have seen a lot of flimsy pedals over the years for keyboards. This is not one of them. With just a little care this pedal should last for quite a long time.
