Thanks for the answers guys. I recently saw that Moog has a expression pedal called Mp-201. I belive it can used as an LFO and it can send CV. Unfortunately its around 500 dollars.

Maybe someone has a schematic of the old Korg Pedal that was designed to work with the MP. Then modding an existing pedal could be an option...
