Yamaha M8 Keyboard Sustain Pedal

This is my second keyboard sustain pedal, the first was a yamaha fc3 (or something of the like) I stole from my friend and he stole it back... So I had to find something comparable, but I didnt want to spend big bucks. Alas, for the price of next to nothing, I found the SP-2. Works equally as well. Why spend more? Furthermore, some of you have commented about how this sustain pedal doesnt feel true to touch or is delayed, any comments regarding a sustain pedal cutting out, or being oftime is more likely a cause of poorly built I/O or a undeperforming CPU. With any sustain pedal being more or less an On/Off percentage based switch (with very limited circuitry), this really shouldnt be an issue of the pedal. I have had no problems with the SP-2 and dont expect them. Nice job M-Audio!(or should I say AVID?).

I bought the M-Audio sustain pedal for my wife along with a Yamaha Portable keyboard. It works really well with it, and a little cheaper than the Yamaha. It has rubber underneath, and a metal pedal bar, so it feels like an expensive pedal. I have some other M-Audio equipment so I'm pretty sure it will last.

This sustain pedal will be used with several different synths.

This is the best sustain pedal I have ever used, including the much more expensive Yamaha pedals. I can't believe how little this costs for as well as it is built. I have just purchased a second one to keep as a backup: A. In case the other one ever fails for any reason, and B. Just in case they stop making them I wanted to be sure I will always have one. I use mine now with a Casio Privia PX5S stage piano, and it works perfectly.

A good sustain pedal

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.

I purchase this SP-Universal Keyboard Sustain Pedal for my Akai MPK 49. I'm 100% satisfied is working very good.

The thing I find best about this sustain pedal is the polarity switch. It works with any keyboard. I switch between Casio and M-audio products, and if it weren't for the polarity switch, I would need two pedals. I like this pedal so much, this is actually the second I've bought (as I am a music teacher and needed to upgrade the pedal for the keyboard I teach on). I bought the first one over three years ago and use it every day. It still works fantastic. I use this pedal to perform, recording, standard home use and teaching. It is a very good quality and has a realistic feel.

I've had my Korg SP-250 keyboard since 2009, and when the sustain pedal that came with it started to die, I was so worried! So I'm extremely relieved and happy B&H had it in stock. The delivery was swift, and it works perfectly!

I would have to say that for the price this sustain pedal is definitely worth it. All the other sustain pedal I looked at that had the same design were about 2X as much money, but this does the job well and is way better than the sustain pedal my keyboard came with.
