Hi, all.

One other little thing Santa brought me for Christmas is a Heil FS2 
footswitch pedal.

I know this is going to sound weird, but having never used one of these 
before, I'm wondering what the best way is to work with it, to ensure the 
most comfort while doing so.

A quick read of the instructions indicates that you put the pedal more 
toward the back of your foot in the heel area.  This is what I'm trying, 
although it will take a bit of getting used to.

One other thing I never thought of is that there is a pretty thick carpet in 
the shack that the foot pedal sets on, so maybe I'll have to get a little 
piece of board to stick under it somehow.

Anyway, am looking for any suggestions folks have on how best to use this 
neat new accessory.
