Sustain P60

Yep. It's a Yamaha FP4. Like I said, it works perfectly on the piano and when I use it on that sound. I've just tried a Roland FC-5 (I think) one of those very small square shaped foot switches which behaves in exactly the same way. I've had the piano for a while and I always just accepted it was a ...

P60 Sustain

Yeah, it's only happening when I lift my hands off the keys. If I hold the keys down without the sustain pedal pressed I get a full sustain, indefinitely, for as long as I hold the keys down.

P60 Strangs with Sustain Pedal

Any P60 owners out there know if I've got a faulty model or is it a feature of this particular piano, but when I try to sustain the strings using the pedal, it isn't the same as when I hold down the keys. It's the same with the organ sound too. It fades away quite quickly so it's more like a rev...

P60 MIDI channels and Voices

I've been having the same problem and used to be a MIDI systems expert. It seems that you can't simply assign a voice (instrument sound) on the P60 to a specific MIDI channel so that every time you transmit and receive on (say) channel 10, that means always play the strings. I've had to do as the pr...
