MIDI Sustain Pedal
The MIDI sustain pedal utilizes:
- a stereo jack-socket, which also acts as the on/off switch,
power-on LED, 9 volt battery connector
- a 4-way DIP switch which selects the MIDI channel at power-on, shown
in Table 1
- a MIDI 5-pin DIN output socket. See Circuit
Diagram.

Sustain Pedal:
The sustain pedal is also known as the Damper Pedal. When operated it sends
out a controller value of CC64. When the pedal is pressed ON the unit outputs a
value of 127, when released OFF the unit outputs a value of 0. Tone-generators
without the 'half-damper' implemented will interpret a value between 0 and 63 as
OFF and a value of 64 to 127 as ON.
