In a dream I saw a D10 with the C6 pedals to the left and the E9 pedals to the right so instead of
A B C P4 P5 P6 P7 P8
the setup was
P4 P5 P6 P7 P8 A B C

Is there anybody out there that has a D10 set up like that.
I think it would be easier to use a lot of knee-levers on the C6 that way if one can settle for 3+5 for the E9 or maybe adding a D and E pedal to the right of A B C.
Ped D would raise 5&6 a whole tone
Ped E would lower 5&10 a halftone.
Both would be easy to use w the right foot.

No, I am not gonna start re-rodding everything on my D10 but on my next guitar if I ever should feel the need for a next guitar. Maybe.

How many knee levers do you need on C6th? The presently accepted setup allows 6, easily (without "clusters" or staggered levers). I don't think I would personally care for, or use, more than that on one tuning. In addition, I have found that moving P5 to a knee lever eliminated my need to use my right foot on the pedals.

But I do know players that wish they had a dozen levers on each neck! Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

Actually I don't "need" any levers since a whole lot can be played using no peds/levers at all. But wanting to play a little more than a "whole lot" require additional levers and I know at least 6 levers that I would find useful on the C6. (possibly 7)

I am still wonderin if anybody has C6peds to the left and E9 to the right.

I want to add an additional question.
Anybody out there that has a pedal doubled (same pulls/lowers) in a different location so it can be used with a pedal next to it?
Example P4 P5 P6 P7 P8 P5 where P5 is doubled
