First time posting on the forums. I have a FA-08 that I use for both pads and organ sounds in the church band.
My question is this: What is the most ergonomic way to switch between the fast and slow Leslie effect?
Currently, I've set up the effect to latch on the S1 key, but it is a bit of a stretch at the end of the keyboard, and I have to take one hand off the keys. I would like to use a pedal to switch on/off the effect, but most keyboard-specific pedals are momentary. Is there a way to configure a momentary pedal to switch between fast and slow Leslie, or do I need to buy a more expensive latching pedal?
I'm open to other solutions if you've got them*, and I apologize if there is a simple method to do this that I couldn't figure out!
Thanks,
Brandon
*Note: I'd prefer not to buy a nice but pricey Leslie-simulator like the RT-20.
