I Had time to watch a few other demos before watching yours and it really became so obvious. It is with these damn sonic crazy pedals where most other players barely escape the noise realm that you reveal your true mastery. It is amazing how you can dive in these weird units and come up with so much musicality, it's chockingly astounding. I know it also because i got down a few times before with pedals you reviewed, revealing me sounds i needed to play with. But at the moment i was starting to tweak these it was just, Holy Spirits ! how does he acheive all this ! Then you also realize that it's not just a matter of talent, this is a huge amount of work too. Though it really worth the trip man. Thank you for showing us it is possible.

Oh my! Thank you so much for this incredibly kind comment, and thank your for acknowledging the amount of time and effort it takes to make these demos. I do spend a lot of time getting to know a product properly before I start filming anything, as I want to be able to relay the pedal's full potential to you all. Means a lot when all the hours and days that go into making these demos are appreciated on the other end of the screen ♥️

You just move the knob you want to assign to expression. So plug in your expression device, move the knob you want to assign (doesn't matter how much, just move it a bit) and then you're ready to express whatever it is you want to express. It's all explained in the manual :)
