Hi all,
for the life of it I can't wrap my mind around how to use a pedal to hold the arp.
What I do:
Connect pedal to "Sustain" port
Check that sustain mode works. Check - pedal down: Hold lights up, pedal up, Hold is off again. Play with sustain, all is good.
Now my expectation: Play something with Arp, e.g. F2 P5 StruckHarpeggio. Press pedal - arp should stay playing even when I let the keys go
But: Arp immediately stops when I press the pedal, even while the keys are still down.
No matter to which setting I set the "Arp sustein" global, be it Arp Hold or Arp Hold Mom, it immediately kills the Arp if I press the pedal down. But in those modes, the old lamp only flashes very briefly. It can't be the polarity, because the normal sustain function works as expected?
I must be doing something completely wrong? I searched the forum, but there seems to be no manual entry for this as it was added in a later version?
Do I need a different Pedal? But it's just a switch, is it?
Thanks for your insight!
