  • Smallest volume pedal

    So what's the smallest volume pedal out there that still works well? I have a small board and would love to have one for my effects loop but space is limited. I have at max 8 inches in length and maybe 3 in width to work with. It would be nice to go smaller, otherwise I'll have to shimmy some things around, maybe even get rid of a pedal I don't use as often.

    A volume pedal is probably the simplest circuit of all pedals. If you have any woodworking skills, why not custom build your own? Since I know I'm getting some cool new tools for Christmas, I might build one myself.

      The smallest I've seen is the DOD Mini.

        That's the absolute worst comment ever! Not because it's bad but because I'm a tinkerer and now can't stop thinking about just building one! Darn you.

          Also check out the Dunlop Mini Volume X and AMT mini volume.

                This one from Hottone works well, and also has a wah.

                  I'm having trouble finding a sufficient guide to building a volume pedal.

                    It's a pedal, a volume knob on its side and either a rack/piņon mechanical connection between the pedal and the knob or just heavy duty string wrapped around the knob connected to the pedal

                    Also, if you need a recipe for toast, let me know.

                      And the "Min" pot can be omitted if you don't need to set a "minimum" value. However, my Boss FV-500 has it, and I love it.

                        Looks like Classic Audio has their interesting take on a small volume pedal. I can see how this can work well.
