Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the Roland EV-5 Expression Pedal. To ensure proper operation and years of trouble-free service, please take the time to read through this Owner’s Manual before starting out.

FEATURES

The EV-5 is an Expression Pedal designed to be used with a keyboard, allowing more dynamic performance. You can set the minimum volume to any level you like, thereby freely determine the maximum effect of the pedal depending on the type of music or the performance you are aiming at.

OPERATION

Set up the EV-5 with the keyboard as shown in “CONNECTION”.
Press the pedal down as far as it goes, and set the maximum volume using the volume knobs of the keyboard.
Return the position of the pedal to the highest position, and set the minimum volume by using the Minimum Volume Knob on the EV-5. (The Minimum Volume Knob does not affect the maximum volume.)
Now, you can control the volume by using the pedal within the range between the maximum and the minimum volume you have set.

CONNECTION

Connect the EV-5 only with other Roland or BOSS products. Connecting with products from other manufacturers may result in damage to the unit. Roland-
