BOSS - EV-1-WL Wireless Midi Expression Pedal

Description

Take command of your MIDI music gear with the BOSS EV-1-WL, the world's first wireless MIDI expression pedal. The EV-1-WL provides wireless foot control for the BOSS GS-1-CTM and Waza-Air, music apps on mobile devices, and anything that can receive CC messages via Bluetooth® MIDI. In addition, USB and MIDI TRS connectivity are on hand for wired control of computer music software and standard MIDI devices. Whether you go wireless or wired - or both at once - the EV-1-WL delivers a ton of MIDI power in a compact footprint.

Control MIDI Stompboxes, Multi-Effects, and More
With its space-saving TRS MIDI output, the EV-1-WL is a powerful accessory for all types of MIDI music hardware, from effect pedals and multi-effects processors to keyboards, drum machines, and beyond. Use a TRS-to-TRS cable to connect with BOSS pedals equipped with TRS MIDI, including 200 series effects and the RC-5 and RC-500 Loop Stations. Or grab the BOSS BMIDI-5-35 cable to connect with any device that has a standard 5-pin MIDI input jack.

Deep Customization
The free EV-1-WL Editor app for iOS and Android devices lets you customize MIDI CC assignments for the EV-1-WL's pedal, toe switch, and up to two external footswitches. The Bluetooth, USB, and TRS MIDI outputs support simultaneous operation, and you can create independent control settings for each. It's also possible to set the switches for momentary or latching operation, adjust the pedal's response curve, and much more.
