Frequently Asked Questions
The action is moderate – not overly heavy, but not feather-light either, providing a familiar feel for most players.
It’s a standard sustain pedal; it will work with any keyboard or instrument using a 6.3 mm jack, but it doesn’t transmit MIDI data.
It's functional and reliable, but the plastic construction means it won't feel as robust as pedals with metal components – it’s suited for regular use, not heavy abuse.
