Thanks for the reply, I was hoping for more of a reduction in gain (like when you turn down the volume knob) instead of solely a reduction in volume, that was the problem with my old pedal (zoom g9.2tt).

I can put a volume pedal in front of it but I am still hoping the volume pedal module in the 11r can do this if placed at the beginning of the line, though I have my doubts and won't be able to try for myself until after christmas...
