Rocky777 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Hi! I am newbie with digital piano and have 2 quesion. First of all my old piano had sustain/assignable port and when i connected foot switch pedal there was "long" sound without any pressing. But in the new px 560 when i connect pedal (included) i need to press it to get "long" sound. (connect to damper btw). How to make it work like with my old casio? And the second question. When i switch power off all settings return to default. Is it normal and how to save them? PS sry my eng. Hope i explained understandably Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bahman Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 The normal behaviour of the sustain pedal is to enable sustain only while pressing the pedal, just like in an acoustic piano. But you can go to the Controller settings on the main menu and reconfigure the behaviour of the pedal as you want (check pages EN-76 and EN-77 of the manual). To keep the settings after switching off the power go to System settings and set Auto-Resume to On. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Ok. Well. If you really really want to reverse it, press and hold the pedal down while the keyboard is powering on. Although, I advise against that since it's not the standard way a pedal works. The PX-560 auto detects pedal polairty during power up. Your old Casio did not have that feature and as a result worked in reverse with that pedal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky777 Posted September 27, 2016 Author Share Posted September 27, 2016 arcturus BradMZ Thx for your answers I used to play with korg kross just a few days and the pedal worked fine (when pressed - short sound, when not pressed - long sound).There was damper port. 10 hours ago, arcturus said: The normal behaviour of the sustain pedal is to enable sustain only while pressing the pedal, just like in an acoustic piano.

Is there no possibility to change the pedal functions without unusual experiments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 What is the brand name and model of your pedal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Saucier Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Why do you want to change the way the pedal operates on the PX-560? It is working correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Display Name Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 You should do you best to break that habit ASAP. If you ever need to perform on an acoustic piano you will be in real trouble. It may seem strange at first, but you will get used to it in a short time and be playing properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
