Expression pedal M-Audio Pinnacle EX-P — aluminium, 4 cm thickness, black

The M-Audio Pinnacle EX-P Expression Pedal is a compact aluminium foot controller designed to provide continuous control over volume, modulation and other assignable parameters for keyboards, MIDI controllers and audio equipment. Finished in black with a robust 4 cm-thick aluminium body, this pedal offers a solid mechanical interface for real-time adjustments in both studio and live environments. It includes an integrated cable and a polarity switch to ensure broad compatibility with many controllers and keyboards.

Advantages

The aluminium construction and 4 cm thickness deliver durability and stable operation during prolonged use. The built-in polarity switch simplifies setup with different brands of controllers, while the integrated cable reduces the need for additional connectors. The pedal’s compact footprint makes it suitable for tight stage setups and crowded pedalboards without sacrificing responsiveness or smooth control.

Suitable for

• Controlling volume levels on keyboards and digital pianos
• Adjusting modulation, filter sweep or effects parameters in real time
• MIDI controller users who need hands-free continuous control
• Live performers and studio musicians requiring a compact expression pedal

Key specifications

• Housing material: aluminium with black finish
• Body thickness: 4 cm
• Control type: continuous expression (analog/MIDI assignable via controller)
• Polarity switch for compatibility with different inputs
• Integrated cable for direct connection to compatible inputs
• Compact footprint suitable for pedalboards and stage setups

How to use

Connect the integrated cable to the expression input on your keyboard or MIDI controller. If the pedal’s response is inverted, use the built-in polarity switch to match the controller’s input convention. Assign the expression control within your instrument or controller to the desired parameter such as volume, modulation, panning or filter cutoff. Operate the pedal with your foot to provide smooth, continuous control during performance or recording sessions.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, ensure the expression input on your device supports the pedal’s connection type and set the polarity switch if needed. When using in live rigs, route the integrated cable to avoid tension or pinching, and keep the pedal on a flat surface to maintain consistent movement and response.
