Midi Pad Control Piano Sustain

Remember to turn off the piano, plug it in and then turn on the piano to get sustain.

Best affordable piano midi keyboard period .

SP-20 Sustain Pedal is good as piano pedal which is working great.

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.

I use a pk-6 keyboard to trigger midi notes in reaper and the SP-2 works flawlessly to sustain notes with all my plugins (i have about 10 or so plugs from freebies to $150 ones). Plug and play as they say and i couldn't be happier.

Excellent digital sustain pedal. I purchased this to use with a Casio digital piano to replace the pedal that came with the keyboard. The SP-2 is weighted and stays in place on the carpet. It feels like a pedal on an acoustic piano, which is what I was looking for. My son has used it for a couple of weeks with no problems.

THE SUSTAIN PEDAL WORKS LIKE THE PIANO, I KEEP IT UNDER THE KEYBOARD.IY WORKS FINE, NO PROBLEMS.

I use it with my Yamaha Disklavier piano to stream midi directly from my phone. Even without Yamaha's own app, it just works right out of the box with the particular apps I've been using to stream.

I am a 65 y.o. male returning to keyboards who stopped playing the organ at age 12. It's never too late, right? This piano is very suitable for my needs. Easy to learn the functions. I especially like the Record feature. This keyboard is simply a pleasure to use. In fact, my father-in-law, a very talented musician, enjoys this Prestige Artist as well. His final words after putting this piano through its paces, was, This is not a toy. It's the real thing. And you're gonna have a LOT of fun with this machine! And he was right! I use this keyboard with a popular online learning application. NOTE: If you're planning to use the midi output by plugging it into an iPad gen 2's USB input, do NOT plug in the midi cord until after the piano has powered up. If you don't, your Alesis may not power up. The stand for this keyboard is perfect. Not only is it very stable and looks great, but it's super easy to take apart and move if you need to relocate your piano in your house. Just 6 easy screws gets the job done. Less than a minute with a power screwdriver, to lift the keyboard off the stand. Easy peasy.

I love the feel of the keys. Just like what I remember from my piano (still on the mainland, built in 1900, we have no room for it here). I've only just started exploring its use with my Linux-based software, so I can only state that having the full 88 keys back is WONDERFUL after decades of only 61 keys. A big part of the joy of piano is it covers the entire scale. Aftertouch works. I haven't done anything with the three joystick controls. When I first set it up, I didn't have a USB-A to USB-B cable, so I tried using my MIDI interface, but wasn't able to make that work. I have a history of being flummoxed by old-style MIDI cables, so I may simply have connected it up wrong. Then I found an appropriate USB cable, plugged it in, and things just worked. I like the keyboard. I like the fact that it's not loaded up with arranger software, instruments in ROM, or tied to proprietary Windows/MacOS-only applications. I look forward to playing it a lot!
