Jim DunlopDunlop, / Volume X Mini Pedal (DVP4)

I am a professional bassist who doubles on elec and dbl bass often, national theater tours, etc, am VERY picky about my gear. Sound, function, reliability. I needed something for both my large and small pedalboards to either tame my volume when going between fingers and with the bow (small board = A/B box in, tuner, vol pedal, preamp/DI out... using the bow can be louder/uneven when plugged in) or to tame a couple of pedals on the large board that need the elec bass volume up full to give the synth bass or distortion pedals a good signal. Super sturdy, built like a tank. Love that I can adjust the tension on how stiff the pedal can be when opening or closing the pedal (if I accidentally touch it while trying to step on another without it affecting my volume). Tuner out is cool, I don't need it. Works well as an expression pedal if something goes wrong with my Electro Harmonics expression pedal. Very happy, loved it so much, I bought another!

This pedal is the perfect size and works as both an expression and a volume pedal for my Headrush Core set-up. The pedal is well build and appears to be very durable. It was certainly more expensive than other things on the market, some of which were roughly $50 or $100 less, but this is going to last and doesn't feel small which I step on it. I enjoy having the smaller footprint next to my effects pedal.

Great exp/vol pedal in a small housing. I have and still use different products from Dunlop and always satisfied. This pedal is absolutely wonderful has a flat rubber bottom plate making it perfect for setting on the floor, small housing made of metal feels solid and doesn't take up much space, no external power or battery needed. Remember to get trs cables if you want to use as an exp pedal regular patch cables won't work unless you are using it as a vol pedal. Highly recommend and now considering a mini cry baby 535q as I am starting to like the feel of the smaller pedal more as I can sweep it quicker and have more comfortable control of it.

More mini the expected. Exactly what I wanted. Works flawlessly and easily with my quad cortex. Great expression pedal with great versatility. Super smooth and fully adjustable action. 10/10

Best expression pedal out there.

Works great, fits nice on my board

Dunlop does a lot of things the right way, and this is no exception. I have two of these between two different boards. Very even sweep, (nice for swells) quiet operation, nice metal case, and the tension adjustment screw is a nice feature. The screw allows you to adjust how tight the rocker pedal is, and keeps it's adjustment once it is set.

Great from factor. Good sweep, considering the size. Unfortunately after 2 years of use once a week it developed a mechanical squeaking sound and static in the signal when changing the volume. Trying it out as an expression pedal now that the volume signal chain is worn out.
