Does anyone know of a good cheap midi expression pedal controller ?

Does anyone know of a good cheap midi expression pedal ?

I am a guitarist and I mainly use neural dsp plugins and logic effect plugins on my guitar tone but I wanted to do some whammy and wah pedal stuff lately and I checked to see how much a digitech whammy dt costs ( I need 2 for this specific song) and it's very expensive. So I thought I'd check for a midi expression pedal to control logic effect pedals instead and found some really cheap options but I wanted to make sure this option will actually work for controlling specific logic pedals, I also thought I saw some midi controller expression pedals that only had jack output which seems impossible from my understanding of midi.

Does anyone know of good budget options for this ? if possible one that also has footswitches to control different footswitches on the plugin ? My budget would be under 50€ if possible so I can get 2 of them.

Any help would be greatly appreciated !

Soundbrenner Pulse – Can it sync to MIDI Clock via Bluetooth

Hi everyone,

I'm considering buying a Soundbrenner Pulse to use as a vibrating metronome during live performances.

My setup includes a Line 6 Helix Stadium that can send MIDI Clock. What I'd like to know is whether the Soundbrenner Pulse can currently sync to an external MIDI Clock via Bluetooth, either directly or through the Soundbrenner app on an iPad/iPhone.

I've found older information saying that Soundbrenner supported MIDI/DAW synchronization, but I've also read that this functionality may have been discontinued.

Has anyone actually tested this recently?

Ideally, I'd like:

Helix Stadium → MIDI Clock → iPad/iPhone → Soundbrenner Pulse

without using Ableton Link.

Does this still work with the current Soundbrenner app and Pulse?

Thanks!

Chicken or Egg?

The first pic is of the Donner starry pad pro. The other is the m-vave smc-pad. The starry pad looks identical to the smc-pad. So I'm supposing, given Donner's website is a slightly less tacky version of temu (for just music gear of course), one is a rebadge, or copy, of the other. So which is the original, and which is the copy?
