How to configure a sustain pedal for TE?

Post by devoc »

I own a Boss FS-5U footswitch ( http://www.roland.com/products/en/FS-5U/ ) and I would like to use it as a sustain pedal with my Triton Extreme. When I used the footswitch with the Trinity there was a separate input named 'Sustain', but the Extreme doesn't seem to have it. I had a quick look in the manual but didn't find any info on how to setup a sustain pedal.

I know, this isn't a big problem but I really can't find it out :)

You need to use the "Damper" socket for sustain.

You can also set the polarity under Global Settings as well. You will need to do this if notes are sustained while the switch is not pressed and then there is no sustain when you press the switch.

I won't touch that with a ten foot keyboard.
