Sustain pedal?

Post by randallp » Thu Mar 28, 2013 6:06 pm

Tried my (Roland) sustain/damper pedal in both Push 1 & 2 sockets to no avail (on Grand Piano).
Is there some setup to perform or do we need a different polarity footswitch or something pls?

Oh, as someone else mentioned, my Roland damper pedal is probably the "wrong polarity?" as it sustains when up and damps when down :-)

Is there a Push setiing for this I wonder? Or if not, can anyone recommend a reverse polarity pedal?

Did you check if there is a switch on your pedal? Alot of times the pedal itself can be flipped, my padkontrol came with a generic pedal and I believe it has a polarity switch on it

No polarity switch on the Roland. Just found a $20 M-Audio SP-2 with decent reviews on Amazon prime - it has such a feature. Ordered one.

I use a Boss FS-5U that works fine as a hold pedal. Just conected in te outest input of the Push. Still trying to make the inner work as a record toggle, as it seems to be.
