Hi all, I'm new to the Casio family with my new (to me) Privia PX-760. I'm teaching my daughter how to play on this amazing instrument, but one small problem. She is really tiny and can't reach the pedals. She's finally learning Moonlight Sonata 1st movement and it just doesn't sound right without Sustain, and she just can't reach the Pedal. If I permanently move the built in pedals higher up then I won't be able to play. Rather than creating a complicated mechanism for quick adjusting the Pedal height, has anyone tried splicing in a cheap stand alone Sustain pedal into the built-in harness? That way I can just place it on a stool for her to play, move it when I play. Does anyone know the pinout? Can the pedals be run in series or parallel or do they need to be switched back and forth? I figured I'd ask on here before I go messing around with my multimeter, curious if anyone has tried it and if there is any drawback to doing this. If not, I guess I'll try it and post on here about how it goes.

Hello, I am a new member here. I own a PX-760 that is about three years old now. I've no issues encountered with it before, even with the headphone jack. A few days ago, however, as I was playing with my usual earphones in an adapter, the sound suddenly cut off. I was surprised because I could hear through the headphones perfectly well moments prior, and then I couldn't all of a sudden. I unplugged the adapter and plugged it again, but no sound came out of the earphones. I even tried wiggling the earphones just in case its contact with the adapter was not good. Still, no sound came. The sounds work fine with the external speakers. Playing with earphones/headphones is really important to me, as I could play without disturbing anyone late in the night. I've no idea how to assess this issue. I was hoping if anyone could help me. Thank you in advance.
