I've tried the BitQuest with both the Roland EV-5 and the Moog EP-2. In my opinion the EV-5 is way more useful for the BitQuest. On the EP-2 there is a pot to control the maximum sweep of the pedal, whereas on the EV-5 there is a pot to control the minimum. With the EV-5 you can get so much more out of the LPF/HPF - like, waaaay more. You can tune it so that the heel is at the lowest point of the sweep, meaning no silence while you are filtering notes that you can't hear. Or you can tune it so that you are in a narrow wah range and use it like a wah. You don't get the same versatility out of the EP-2 - you have to bring the LPF up to get the wah stuff, and given that control 1 is the LPF you need to be able to set a higher minimum. Will have to compare EP-2/EV-5 with the other patches, but given how AWESOME the EV-5 was with the LPF/HPF patch I'll be going with that regardless.
Is there any expression pedal where you can set the max or the minimum sweep? That would be rad.

Great for the LPF/HPF, and also the octave mode where you can slide back and forth between the pitch of your guitar (if you tune the expression pedal right which can be a little tricky) and an octave up.

You might want to try to do it if you're really good at modding pedals, though. The pedal's modded to set the max, though, so between the Moog and the CTRL1 I can get a really specific range to work in, which is good for the delay.
