M-Audio SP-1 Universal Sustain Pedal

Add real piano-style sustain to any keyboard. The M-Audio SP-1 Universal Sustain Pedal is a simple, compact and sturdy pedal for today’s electronic keyboards. It is a non-latching momentary switch, so sustain lasts only while your foot is down – just like a piano.

Why customers choose it

• Works with any keyboard: a polarity switch makes it compatible with all electronic keyboards.
• More than sustain: use it as a footswitch (FS) controller for synthesizers, tone modules and drum machines.
• Ready to plug in: fixed 5-foot cable with a standard 1/4-inch phone plug.
• Small and sturdy: a compact pedal that is easy to carry to lessons and gigs.

Who it is for

Piano and keyboard students, home players, church and stage keyboardists, and producers with MIDI controllers that have a sustain input.

Specifications

Good to know

• Your keyboard or controller needs a 1/4″ sustain or footswitch input.
