I would like to setup a pedal for the MK 3 Keyboard for sostenuto

Squeezeboxt

Hi,

I´m new with the Kontrol S88 MK3. I would like to add a second pedal with the cc midi-controller 65 (Sostenuto). But somehow it doesn`t work. Can anybody help me, to make the right settings in the Keyboard? thanks

Dear Uwe303,
Thank you very much for your help. Everything is working. However, I had to set the correct CC Controller 66 (not 65). Now everything is ok. Thank you very much for your help.
Yours sincerely

Hello,

what have you tried so far, normally you set it up like the sustain pedal you just set cc65. What model do you use and what settings have you made? Have you tried a midi monitor to see if cc65 is working?

Squeezeboxt

Yes and my pedal works as sustain pedal on the sustain port perfectly. The question here is the sustain pedal has on page 2 CC64 0 -127 and on page 3 CC 65 0-127.

but when i try to set up on output 3 from the keyboard the sostenuto CC 65 0-127 on page 2 what do I have to set up on page 3 (cc65 0-127 doesn`t work)?

Uwe303

On page 3 setup something unused like midi cc14,15 on both third pages (from both pedals), for the ring. If I'm later back home I can try. And I guess your pedals are both the same, switch type pedals.

Squeezeboxt

yeah your are right. I‘m using switch pedals for sustain and hopefully for sostenuto.

Then just set tip up like you have said, and ring to cc14/15 (unused), and it should work. What exact model(s) do you use?

Yes of course 65 is portamento - that I didn't see that - but good that you found out and that everything is working now
