Review: These headphones are quite amazing. I'd been using the WH-1000XM4, which are much more expensive - but find the sound on the M-Audio ones better. To be fair, the WH-1000XM4 has a different function - but still.....

## Questions & Answers

**Q: For a while, my pedal sustained when NOT depressed, sort of a reverse functionality, which I actually appreciated...but can't replicate. Anyone else?**
A: According to the FAQ on the manufacturer's web site (for the SP-Double and SP-Triple), ¨Are the pedals switchable? The pedals will not have a switch to change polarity and will operate as normally open. This means that the pedal will send a value of 0 when up and a value of 127 when pressed down all the way. Different manufacturers may program their keyboards to respond to the opposite (127 when up, 0 when down) and to combat this some pedals may come with a switch to change the polarity of the pedal to match that of the keyboard. Typically, though there are ways around this without the need for the switch.¨  (The article is on the manufacture's website at:  http://m-audio.com/kb/article/1967 )

**Q: Does this pedal have a gradient on the sensitivity for the sustain, OR is it an on/off sustain switch?**
A: It appears this is a simple on/off switch pedal. For continuous or gradient performance the phrases to look for in sustain pedal description are "half-damper" or "half-pedaling." If there is no indication by the manufacturer of one of those descriptions, the pedal is just an on/off switch. If your digital piano or electronic keyboard supports half-damper, then a half-damper pedal varies the nature of the sustain effect based on how far down you depress the pedal. The only half-damper pedals I have found so are the Yamaha FC3A, Roland DP-10, and Korg DS1H. The half-damper effect emulates the action on an acoustic piano of lifting the felt damping pads only part way off of the strings.

**Q: Where is the cable of the pedal?**
A: its permanently attached to the pedal.

**Q: Does this pedal work with all Korg keyboards?**
A: The pedal has reversible polarity, so it will work with all keyboards.
