Dewtron Mister Bassman bass pedals “I started off with pretty shaky gear, and I discovered as time went on that I needed a wider range of equipment. I started playing bass pedals – they were called Mr. Bassman pedals – and 12-string guitar. Pretty soon, I got an amp system that had a two-way crossover so that I could get more clarity”. (Guitar Player, January 1981)

at 3:14 in the video, Anderson is clearly shown playing the pedals (with his hands). It is mounted on a stand so that he can easily reach it. You can hear him playing the melody in this section on it, and it looks like he's using quite a bit of force to play it.

A user in this reddit thread confirms that this is the indeed the pedal that he is using here: https://www.reddit.com/r/yesband/comments/ekp4k8/does_anyone_know_which_keyboard_jon_anderson_is/fdd41rd/
