Midi Controlled Octave Pedal

This is a correction of my initial review. The pedal jack is MIDI assignable, which confused me to believe it could be configured as expression via MIDI, but sadly is not. Is a simple TS jack. For expression, you need a TRS jack (tip, ring, sleeve). But is nothing that takes away from this awesome keyboard. Still I believe is one of the best values under 100$. The key action is great, and very soft for fast riffs. I'll need to find a way to fit my second expression pedal in my rig.

This is a solid pedal. I needed one for my Axiom 49 2nd generation MIDI keyboard and this thing does the job well. I've had it for a couple weeks and so far so good.

The Vpc1 is the best midi controller on the market. As per my research from other reviews on various piano sites, the included foot pedal really is garbage. Out of the box, it has a flutter which is visible in my daw and is audible. Shame on Kawai for not changing this pedal for all the years they have been selling the Vpc1. Many reviewers went through the process of returning the foot pedal and getting a new one only to find after a couple of weeks the noise and flutter was back. Mine is already on the closet shelf and my Roland rp 3 pedal arrives tomorrow along with a purchase of a Midi Expression iO to compliment the new pedal with the Vpc1. So if you buy the Vpc1, just know you may need to spend another $300 for the perfect setup.

I'm a keyboard and accordion player, and this pedal is used as a sustain pedal sometimes; other times it is a MIDI program switch. The pedal is compact, positive in action, and resists sliding around. In short, a fine low-cost pedal.If it were the ultimate pedal, it would also have full damper action so that partial pedaling would be transmitted -- but there are more expensive pedals for that.

Got this for a 2-octave kbd. Just perfect - love it.

easy to use and works flawless. Can also work with only one MIDI connection (midi out).

Exactly as advertised. Now I don't have to use the octave jump button on the small 41 key synths. ;)

Great pedal.

Legend Reverb pedal!

This pedal does what the other's do at a fraction of the cost.
