Fix Volume Pedal Level

This one isn't a mod really, but something I stumbled upon while working out the Smooth Swell mod (both together are great). It's also the easiest adjustment I offer you to change how your AX1500/1000 Volume pedal works.

Change your Volume Pedal Level parameter from 0.0 to 0.3. You'll lose the total silence of the pedal all the way off, but what you'll also lose is that annoying huge jump in volume when you rock the pedal foward quickly. I don't know for sure, but I believe that there is some delay inherent in the digital volume effect so that in coming from zero to whatever the pedal is a few miliseconds behind as it processes the sweep of the pedal. With the Level set to 0.3 instead of 0.0, the effect is never 100% silenced and so can spring to action quicker and with more precision. My explanation may be bogus, but the diference in the effect is there regardless.
