Fran, for the reasons you stated, I would reccomend you not purchase any bass pedals - that is unless you just want to have them around. I use the same three pedals as you and am busy enough. When I was using pedals, I had a leslie f/s pedal that I kept as near the bass pedals as possibel for use with the left foot. The others were used with the right foot.

I think it's just good to know that you can't go wrong with the midi versatility of the Roland pedals.

OK now, if we're going to talk bigger pedal units, then the Hammond 25 or AGO 32 are preferred. If find that those purists who play 32's do not like the 25's. Just the plain 8' and 16' Hammond sounds without sustain suck IMO. I thought we were talking combo/arranger with bass pedals. If we're talking B3 and the like, then by all means give me those pedals. Playing standing behind a B3 is not my idea of playing unless there's a bad-ass bass player standing next to me.
