Pedal for NE3

Post by Tbone »

Hi!

I need a sustain pedal for ne3 and control pedal (for rotary speed effect and for volume control) - any recommendations?

Thanks!

a bit heavy but really nice
sustain pedal: any footswitch or pedal that feels comfortable to you... some like the 'piano'-model, some like just a little switch box

Yes, that's possible. If you do that, the sustain function will be disabled for the organs and the sustain pedal will function as a rotary pedal.

Great! Is it complicated to setup such combination? Or is it explained in manual? ;)

It's extremely easy to do it. You only have to plug in a switch pedal in the sustain pedal input and set number 6 in the system menu to 'rt'. It can be done in 5 seconds.

Press system while holding the shift button, then move the cursors to num 6 and then again while holding the shift button and move the up/down buttons till you switch to rt. Then press store to save your settings.

I bought a M audio sp1 pedal, not very smooth on sustain transition but it will do for my needs... also works well on rotor speed action.

I managed to get 6.rt on the display; should I store that?
