How do I turn on the sustain pedal in "The Grandeur?"
When I read the manuel - I understand you can use the resonance samples by using a pedal and MIDI controller. However I don't have either on those...
I'm really suprised there isn't just a switch or knob to adjust the pedal in the actual virtual intrument. I also cannot figure out how to assign it to a MIDI CC, or if it already has been assigned to one.

When I look The Grandeur in Kontakt, when loaded in my DAW (Studio One) - it says there is nothing assigned to #64 in host automation, and also nothing assigned to CC64 in MIDI Automation.
I can easily assign a CC to anything else (using the drag and drop) - but because there is no knob/switch/fader for turning the pedal on or off - I don't know how to assign it?
Is it something I would have to do on my DAW?

Most instruments do not have a "Sustain" switch as that is what the keyboards foot pedal (CC 64) is designed to do and usually, people hvae a sustain pedal. Would be well worth getting one.
All you should need to do is setup a MIDI CC control on CC 64 and that shoudl then sustain the notes when activated, a footswitch is just a MIDI CC 64 control.

@Laurant Exactly what Jester said! CC64 is the MIDI message for sustain. You can either write an automation with CC64 in Studio One or assign a MIDI controller to CC64, it won't be as practical (and as it was intended) as a sustain pedal (you can find some really cheap ones if you want to save yourself some headaches trying to set up that CC64 with something else.)
