Anyone know the brand of this one?

Separate Left and Right 1/4” Line Outputs
Headphone Jack (1/8”)
Sustain Jack (for hooking up a Sustain Pedal). Note: This jack can also be routed as a start/stop for the Accompaniment Section*

… and in addition ... an “external” 2 Octave Jump Switch (flip the switch and it takes the range of the Pedals up two octaves, or back down two octaves if you switch it back).
Tuning (for fine tuning)
*Accompaniment and Rhythm Sections:
These sections can output on *separate midi channels*, so you can even run the drums and backing tracks to high quality outboard samplers etc..
Also, if you hit a note while the accompaniment is set to play a chord... you can switch the mode button while it's playing and then you can use any of the sounds to solo over the accompaniment. And the accompaniment works such that if you hit one note, and it's a Major chord. Hit two notes and it's Minor. Hit three, it's a 7th. Hit four, it's a Minor 7th. There is a separate volume adjustment for the accompaniment section to boot. And if that wasn't enough,... whatever you are playing over the accompaniment on the Pedals is also going out of the midi output. Note: I have noticed that the midi output sends volume information that is kind of on the low side,.. so if you use a midi sound source, you will want to turn it up a bit (or switch off velocity sensitivity). This only applies to what you play on the Pedals themselves (not the Rhythm and Accompaniment sections - they output on separate midi channels, and at full volume).
Onboard Drum Rhythms (128 patterns with full Tempo Control)
Song Memory - 1 Song, real-time recording, up to 1,300 notes.
4 Set Up Memories - you can memorize a few of your special setups, and recall them later (things like layers, effect choice etc).
128 Pedal Playable Backing Track Phrases (various styles - these sound real nice).
This is a very solid piece of equipment with a black speaker type carpet covering and a carry handle on the side. A couple of additional details: You may see one speaker to the left on top... the other is mounted inside the pedal case on the right side. That is why you see a slot in the carpeted border near the sound source on the right side– to let the sound through.
These pedals are not made to be velocity sensitive. I personally do not find that useful when it comes to Pedals. A modification is possible to bring that function about, but it would add about $100 to the price. There are a few usable bass sounds in the module... one of which is a fairly decent sounding upright bass patch. These can be layered as well, so there are a lot of possibilities.
Another cool thing worth mentioning is that the pedal shafts themselves are the same type and shape as those used in the infamous Moog Taurus Pedals. They have a nice classic look to them."
