Ghost Writer Pedal Review in Waveform Magazine

"The pedal’s interface is straightforward, with bypass footswitches for both audio and midi that allow you to toggle audio pass-through and MIDI information transmission respectively. There is a glide switch to add a little bit of portamento to the generated MIDI data, and a sensitivity control for dialing in the responsiveness of the MIDI signal generation. MIDI data is transmitted out the rear of the pedal via a 3.5mm TRS jack (MIDI type A). An adapter cable (to 5-pin DIN) is not included with the pedal so you’ll need to have one on hand unless you are connecting directly to a device that accepts MIDI over TRS.
Set up is easy and there is no onboard configuration other than the sensitivity knob. MIDI is transmitted on channel 1 and the pedal is easily hot-swapped between different synths, as long as they're set up to receive on channel 1. Technically, any audio signal present at Ghost Writer’s input will generate some form of MIDI data. Still, I found the, most predictable results with short, individual notes with a nice attack."
