M-Audio SP-2 - Universal Sustain Pedal with Piano Style Action, The Ideal Accessory for MIDI Keyboards, Digital Pianos, Electronic Keyboards & More

Very good and works perfectly

I got this for my keyboard, and it’s been great so far. It has a nice weight to it, doesn’t slide around on the floor, which is exactly what I was looking for.It works perfectly with my keyboard, and the polarity switch is a great feature, making it compatible with most brands. The build quality feels solid, and the pedal has a good amount of resistance, making it comfortable to use.

For its price is good,its an on off Sustain Pedal with no half step something i taught i did not need or know about untill later on,i should of payed more money for one with halfstep but this one will do for now,It has not worked good with fl studio and kontakt as one press down adds Sustain and you have to repress it again to undo Sustain,i found its a fl studio errors and will need to look into it more as it works ok in kontakt standalone and in other DAWS.I also got a M-Audio EX-P - Expression Pedal and will use the two pedals with kontakt and my nektar p6,If i was to get one pedal i would go with the M-Audio EX-P - Expression Pedal as it can also be used as aon off Sustain Pedal just like this one but it comes with 0 to 127 velocity that can be changed as you like,If i could start again i would get one Sustain Pedal with halfstep and the Expression Pedal .

The media could not be loaded. Firstly the positives. Great value for money. Has a solid weight to it and the plastics feel good quality for the price. It also is quite grippy so stays in place on the floor as you play and is stable. The pedal weight is good and offers good resistance. Amazon customer service and return was completely painless on the first purchase, and a replacement was sent out next day. So very happy with the service and purchasing experience.The deal-breaker for me is the pedal mechanism. The up/down is smooth, however there is a lot of horizontal pedal movement that causes a clicking/knocking noise and feel when you play. Please see attached video. I returned the first order for a replacement and both were identical, so presume it is by design. Some internal cushioning material could resolve this, but hearing and feeling it as you play is an unacceptable distraction. Has a kind of "this is going to fail in time" feel to it.One other weakness is that there is no partial/variable sustain control; it's either full on or off so won't suit a player who needs to vary the amount of sustain with their foot.On balance though, there is no denying that it is good value for money if you are looking for a basic, cheap and cheerful sustain pedal and don't mind the distracting clicking, and also are happy to not have partial sustain capabilities.

Bought this for my Yamaha p-145 As i thought the p-145 didn’t come with a pedal but once i unvoxked the keyboard i though i wasted my money on a new sustain pedal. However this one is so much better, it’s much bigger and heavier giving it the authentic and real feel. Amazing product

I recently purchased a Yamaha P-145B. It came with a sustain pedal that was too lightweight to be of much use. I had a Roland pedal used with a previous keyboard but it would not work with the Yamaha. The M-Audio sustain pedal is better than the Roland pedal. It has a very solid construction and provides a very firm grip to my laminate flooring.

High quality and works well

KInd'a surprised at the quality of this pedal considering its price. It is much heavier than I somehow imagined it would be and, with the non-slip base, it really stays where you put it. Unfortunately, the pedal that came with my Yamaha P-45 is rather basic and not at all like a proper piano pedal looks or feels. OK this piano is not exactly top flight but it has hammer-weighted keys, i.e. it is a good attempt at a proper piano feel, not just touch-sensitive keys, so I am not sure why they put in such a budget (actually, I really mean 'cheap') pedal that also slides around under your foot so that you have to keep dragging the thing back. Considering the price point M-Audio can achieve with this pedal, it shames Yamaha to supply the poor quality item they do. Stick another tenner on the price of the piano Yamaha, and include a decent pedal!So don't hesitate, folks. If you, like me, are suffering with a slippy, lightweight, weird pedal, get one of these. It's a no-brainer.
