Just wanted to confirm that expected wiring for Kemper expression pedal is:

Sleeve --> CCW lug
Ring --> CW lug
Tip --> Wiper

?

Also, some expression pedals have a 1k resistor in series with the wiper lead.  Is that required for Kemper?

I'm converting a Dunlop Cry-Baby to save the cost of a Mission pedal.  Have 10k linear pot on order.

I have no resister on the 10K pot for the conversion  I made for my Kemper

Thanks!  Did I have the rest of the wiring correct?

Wonder why the need for a minimum resistance of 1k and max of 11k, as opposed to 0 and 10 with the pot alone?

the 1K resistor is a current limit resistor - for some M-Audio applications

Every exp pedal I have used works with the Kemper, with no mods.
