Hi Everyone. Can anyone tell me if they have any information on the workings of the swell / creshendo pedals from my theatre organ... i want to know if they...
Hi Chris, Most likely there is a single pot on each of the pedals. Expression is achieved by the pots varying the voltage on a light bulb with up to 4 LDRs...

My 321 uses a 500 ohm pot. Wattage shouldn't be an issue since it feeds controlling transistors. It's the transistors that provide power to the bulbs, Ed ... ...
I might try connecting the positive and negative feed to the swell shoe input on my midi board then and see what happens... if it outputs the right range it...
One correction.... The photocells are actually part of a tone control circuit that controls the gain of an amplifier. If they are dark they adjust the gain low...
Chris... I missed your first email but... on my 340 I replaced the original expression pots with a dual pot using one section as originally intended and the...
Hi Frank. Thanks for that. I don't intend to use any of the internal sounds in the rodgers organ...  all i am using it for now is a midi controler...

Chris, I'll defer to the Rodgers Techs on the list, but I would suspect one of three things: (1) you have a loose connection at the Power Supply which is ...
