hag01 Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I want to connect to my PX-5S a three pedal unit for Soft, Sostenut, and Sustain(with half pedalling support) to the first pedal input of it, and an expression pedal to the second pedal input, not to control the internal sounds of the PX-5S, but to control a virtual instrument\hardware module through the PX-5S. Do anyone here know a way to do it by a third party hardware? I know this:http://www.midisolutions.com/prodped.htm But I don't know if it would except a 3 pedals unit. I also know this:http://www.rocktron.com/midi-xchange.html Again, don't know if it would except a 3 pedals unit. And the worst thing - I don't know any third party three pedals unit model that support half pedalling. P.S It would be nice to find a hardware that can run under the PX-5S power supply, and won't need to be connected to a seperate external power supply.

Display Name Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Hi there and welcome to the Casio Forums. Well, if 3 pedal support with half damper is important to you, unfortunately the PX-5S is not the keyboard you are looking for. It's stage piano and not really designed for that type of playing. Not sure of any USB option that is a 3 pedal with half damping. Honestly I don't know of anything that would work without a lot of cobbling and customization with the PX-5S and/or modules/software. A PX-160 with the SP-33 pedal unit may be the way to go here... might not be that much than trying to configure a bunch of stuff together.. certainly less of a headache. Only thing: NOT sure how this would work with software. You may want to head over to the Digital Piano forum at PianoWorld.com and ask there.. more people there who do this type of thing. Good luck and let us know how it works out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hag01 Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 OK, I understand. So lets say I want to cennect this:http://www.midisolutions.com/prodped.htm to the PX-5S only for one expression\damper with half damping option pedal. Quote from the link above: "The Pedal Controller is MIDI-powered, and requires no batteries or power supply to operate with most MIDI products". Is there a MIDI power option in the PX-5S or do I need to connect it to external power supply? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
