Re: Footswitch: Rotary Toggle or Latch, but not both?

Thanks everyone!

Just a few reminders.

1) I have an NS2. While I’m interested in knowing how the NS3 differs, only what I can do on the NS2 will be current solutions to me.

2) I’m not talking at all about Sustain. Only Latch (aka Sostenuto). I like the feature of laying down a few notes that keep playing while I play subsequent notes on the same instrument that are not sustained. And I like the freedom to use it with whatever engine I want.

Thanks again!

In this case, you don't need the triple pedal. Any sustain pedal will work.


I see your point, thanks. This may get the job done when I upgrade to NS3. It’s a compromise, tho, because i won’t have the ability to sustain my lead line independently. When you have separate sostenuto and sustain pedals, you have more musical control.

Sorry, I didn't get that the question was about NS2. NS3 is my first Nord.. :roll:

No worries! Just better to avoid confusion :thumbup: (and now you also know about this difference between the 2 models, not the only one of course but relevant for this discussion ;) )
