Thanks, I really thought about getting the Yamaha FC3 for this function, I didn't know Genos didn't support it.
But does FC4 at least respond well to the foot?
Hi Genos1957,
There are certainly subtle differences in how the FC3A and FC4A pedals react (on a keyboard that is NOT half-pedal capable). One of the reasons for this is that the FC3A has a
potentiometer (adjustable resistor) whose position is evaluated by the keyboard (and converted into an on/off signal), while the FC4A, as mentioned, works directly as a "normally closed"
momentary switch. It may be that the switching point (between "pressed" and "released") is in a slightly different position for these two pedals. This shouldn't be a problem, however, because when you press the pedal, you step on it (if you don't half- pedal-capable models) normally all the way down anyway.
If you want to know exactly which pedal suits you better, you should either test both pedals in your local music store, or you can order both online and then send one of them back.
Best regards,
Chris
