will an inexpensive keyboard sustain pedal work to punch in and out?

This may be so, however, I've had no luck yet getting my sustain pedal to activate the in and out on the Tascam. It does respond in the settings menu, showing the polarity change when you press it, but does not activate anything. Hope you have some luck!

YES IT CAN!!!!! If you look at the section where your "tone/pattern/song bank" buttons are you will see the word TUNE colored in white with a line to both the tone button and a line to the pattern button. You have to push both the tone and pattern buttons simultaneously and your keyboard will show the function on it's display. Using the "minus and plus" buttons located on the numeric keypad, you can adjust it up or down. The instruction booklet even explains this folks.

It will work because it's standar midi device, but I don't recommend this, mine, a complete section of the keyboard stop working (8 keys). Look for a M-Audio.

Hello Shed,I dont use many of the function on this keyboard other than straight piano and some organ voices. I use a Boss RC3 Guitar pedal to record layers as I am primarily a guitar player. On that, Im not having any problems whatsoever.

Yes you can plug in a sustain pedal. Just be warned, the sustain doesn't last as long as you'd like it to on this keyboard. Still it is a great keyboard and I love to sound quality and voice features.

I havent tried but i think that will work, if your computer works with an external keyboard, maky makey will also work, because it works as a keyboaRdOadkrd to

if it's for tap delay pulse, it doesn't. if it's for holding a loop it might. the Hosa has latching buttons. I know it doesn't work with a Tap Delay Pedal since you need rhythm pulsing, with a loop I deduce one stomp would start recording and another stomp would end it (whereas with a unlatching pedal, you'd have to hold it depressed while the loop is recorded and let go to cut it off) Either way you can buy theses switches and turn it into an unlatching footswitch: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006M4ZGOI/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I believe there is an input for a separetly purchased sustain pedal. Hope this helps!

It should work fine with all Casio and even Yamaha keyboards. I've never heard of a half-sustain feature, in the material that came with this pedal it said nothing about supporting half-sustain. It does have a switch to change polarity so it can be used on keyboards that are set up opposite of the Casio line.

I would think so. I use mine for mapping keystrokes as a sizzle button and works great. As long as you can input the characters its should work fine. :D

Yes you can just use the program that comes with it. All you need to do is have the pedal set to C and below that are checkboxes for Shift / Ctrl / Alt so you can make copying and pasting easy.

The pedals on this keyboard are pretty good - you can do half or quarter pedaling and I've found it to be pretty realistic. I've also never had any problems ever with voices cutting out on this piano due to too many keys pressed at the same time, and as far as I can tell you can hold the pedal down and press every key and they will all continue to sound.

You have to set this thru damper calibration. If you have a Global setting, you can find this setting .It will explain how to set the pedal up for sustain. Double check your plug in on back of keyboard. It should have a sustain jack.

There is a sustain pedal included with the keyboard, if using a headphone you will need a 1/4 inch adaptor to plug into the rear. I would suggest you get a dust cover for the keyboard, hope this helps.

Nope. In addition to all the solder-based solutions, you could probably make it respond to the sustain from another device by SW routing. Or if you want to be extreme, set up your iPad as a pedal and route the midi from that through your DAW :-).In all seriousness, this really isn't a big-keyboard replacement. More of an item that you would have at your computer workstation so that you can reach your computer keyboard while also having some keys to input notes (i.e. composition rather than performance). Also you might think about the 61-key version (also no sustain).

Yes, any MIDI keyboard can do what you describe. Anything that sends MIDI notes can. Have fun!
