I've been playing around with one of the standard patches (DishFloy), and I'd like to use my expression pedal for either the Filter on the D-Beam or the pitch sweeps on the Ribbon. But I can't figure how to get this to work.

I've tried using Ribbon > Control in the Control Assign, but it doesn't seem to work... any advice?

Great - thanks a million! I'll give this a crack and feed back on it.

I've got this working now, thanks to your help.

A major stumbling block was that the external pedal was disabled in System Settings... dur.

 That is great it is a little tricky!  ;D

It's made trickier by the manual which is, by and large, pony. In many places it only faintly scratches the surface on what a given function can do, or how it's controlled.

Still, I wouldn't trade my VB99 for anything - it's a modern classic.
