My guess is that if your keyboard has a sustain jack in the back, this sustain pedal would work on it.
Only about a third of the distance travelled or a quarter to a half The inverse operation results in a smaller increase. I prefer the longer travel mode on my Yamaha as it detects and adapts to each mode. (Flipping the bottom and top switches are handled by the switch on the bottom).
Yes, it is. In fact, the pedal works for both my Yamaha keyboard and my Korg arranger and Casio CTK keyboards. (I make this statement based on the fact that your unit has a sustain jack). It is even more likely that it will work because of the polarity switch. My Yamaha didn't have a polarity switch, so I had to use the pedal's switch.
I use this pedal all the time with my Kawai ES1 and it works great. In fact, it should work with practically Basically all you have to do is flip the switch from the left to the right.

In my opinion, this is the best pedal that I have yet owned, at about $5 less than the lowest price. So, the price is ideal for this pedal. The heavy steel plate is built on solid steel and is a heavy gauge. There are no pedals that stay in place when you use them, but I found this one to be better than most
I unpacked it, but I disassembled the pedal right away because I'm an engineer and that's what I do. It is robust, and there are no play issues. There are millions of cycles in the spring, which makes it durable. I've never seen this type of polarity selection switch before. The switches (there are two because you choose the polarity) are membrane switches with a boot mounted on a small printed circuit board. It is very common (I've taken apart many) for audio and the rest to make their own switches by mechanically pressing two The lesser pedal switches are exposed to the environment, and oxides will eventually oxidize the contacts causing the switch to become unreliable (though a wipe right after a performance will scrape off the oxides, but you may see a glitch now and again while playing). My expectation is that this pedal will be more reliable. I have seen many complaints of "squeaky" pedals. I lubricated the hinge and it stopped making a slight noise. Noise should not be an important factor in choosing a pedal. There is always noise making by all of them. Some people just don't pay attention to At a gig with a drummer, it is not a problem, but in your studio it can be an issue depending on your sensitivity. Squeaks are not squeaks in my opinion The sound of a squeak is a bad thing. The sound is more of a metal on metal beat. It usually makes a difference to make the spring silent if you spray grease on the hinge and the top and bottom of the spring.
The cheap sustain pedal I had previously bought had quickly broken (it was very cheap), so I decided to invest a bit more money in a dependable one. I much prefer this sustain pedal to the plastic one, which quit working for me and I had to replace it. The first time you need a pedal, I would recommend going with a pedal that is more like this to ensure it does not break and will last a long time. A neat feature is the polarity switch on the bottom of the device, plus the bottom has rubber so it will not slide if the surface is slick. This is what I would do.
Despite the fact that the sustain pedal that came with my electric keyboard worked for about a month, later on it stopped working. After searching for a replacement, I found the Yuker-N but I still need to decide how it will best serve my needs Due to it's appearance, ST1 is the first one that comes to mind. As far as I was concerned, it looked exactly like a classic piano pedal, and the price was equally appealing. And when it arrived, everything I expected was there. There is nothing I like more than the feel, weight, and response of the You won't have any problems sliding it on the floor, and it works well. This is an excellent item! Definitely recommend!.
This piano pedal is a favorite of mine, as it feels like a real piano pedal, not flimsy at all, and functions well. I have had to replace it after two months of medium use after it developed a very loud squeak (so loud I could hear To fix this, I thought it would be easy to apply some WD-40 As a result, I removed the screws from the bottom half of the case and removed the top half, then pulled the pedal through the hole in the case to separate it from the bottom half. Unfortunately, I didn't pay close attention to the two wires that are soldered to the small switch on It took them a few minutes to rip me loose before I even noticed My next thought was to solder them back on, but the wire ripped off the copper conductor on the circuit board, so there's nothing to solder to at the moment. My old pedal was squeaking, so I ordered a new one since I still believe it is the best pedal available, but it should have been engineered better to prevent squeaking. Regardless, use caution if you are going to disassemble it. I think the easiest way to lubricate would be to unscrew the bottom part, and wiggle it open just enough so you can see the spring or hinge that.
Remember that the polarity switch is on. The pedal replaced the cruddy one that came with the weighted keyboard we bought from Yamaha, and it has served us very well since then. A good pedal action with a springy feel, but not too stiff, has a nice weight to it and stays in place as you play. In fact, the only gotcha is the polarity switch, which is actually a feature By letting go of the pedal rather than mowing down the pedal, the pedal will activate. Make sure that the switch is turned off before pushing down. The pedal is a great replacement for an older one.
The product looked good and I took a chance on it, but it turned out to be a solid purchase. I usually only buy things with a lot of reviews, but this product looked tempting. I like how solid it feels, how good it grips the ground, and how heavy it feels. There are several pedals that I own, Yamaha, Nord, Roland, and this one compares favorably in quality and feel to them all. Although I cannot speak for the long term since I have only owned them for a very short period of time, I play frequently and they (bought two) feel like they will last a decent amount of time.
In my experience, the polarity switch on the back is very useful for the keyboard I have. If the pedal is plugged in and the function is reversed (pedal up sustains, pedal down stops), simply toggling the switch on the back will solve the problem. This feature makes this pedal perfect for use with keyboards other than the one it came with!.
Roland DS 88 Works Great on this! I thought this might not work with my Roland DS 88, There was an issue with the previous pedal's sustain being reversed and you couldn't easily control it. The switch on this one can be flipped and voilĂ !.
