I love minimalistic style (although I cannot apply this principle in my stuffs). Congratulations for your nice portative HW organ. It seems that you can control your instrument by telepathy.
So I also have the same questions posted by Engrssc. And how did you connect the Yamaha pedal to the system?

Thanks, professor, very funny!
The connection of the expression pedal is a matter of replacing the slide pot of the Keystation by the FC7. Both are only potentiometers, as I see, only that the FC7 unit is bigger. On the keystation cut the slide pot's wire, which has three threads, near the PCB, and discard the pot. Then cut and discard the 1/4" jack of the FC7, whose wire also has three threads, and join both wires according to the image below (thanks to member "joeltrekell" for his kind advisory):
You see: i) connect red dotted thread to ground one; ii) red tiny-dashed thread to white one; and iii) red thick-dashed thread to red one. In practice I soldered every pair of wires and covered them with heat shrink tubing.
Warm regards
