A Super-stable Sustain Pedal with Half-damper Control

Harness the full expressive potential of your keyboard with the Korg DS-1H sustain pedal. This
piano-like metal pedal is very durable and feels incredibly stable under your foot. Korg users can
enjoy half-damper control, which varies the lengths of your sustained notes depending on how far
down you press the pedal. This allows you to dial back the sustain of your notes if your playing
becomes excessively loud or muddy. The Korg DS-1H sustain pedal features a built-in cable, so
connecting it to your keyboard is a piece of cake.

Jordan Rudess loves Korg.

Korg - 50 years of innovation

In over half a century of continuous innovation, Korg has introduced and advanced many aspects of
electronic music technology and keyboard design. It began in 1963, when Tsutomu Katoh and
Tadashi Osanai created their original Doncamatic DA-20 disc rotary electric auto rhythm machine.
Korg quickly bloomed into a full-fledged electronic organ company, until they embraced the
fledgling synthesizer market emerging in the mid '70s. From key transpose functions and onboard
effects to sample and synthesis sound design, the keyboard world owes many industry-standard
technologies to Korg. That's why top keyboardists like Jordan Rudess, Herbie Hancock, and Omar
Edwards (and quite a few of us here at Sweetwater) rely on Korg to craft their unforgettable sonic
signatures.

Korg DS-1H Sustain Pedal Features:

Piano-like metal sustain pedal for Korg, Novation, Fatar, and Casio keyboards
Durable design feels incredibly stable under your foot
Enjoy expressive realism with half-damper pedal control (this feature only works with Korg
keyboards)
Built-in cable makes connecting to your keyboard easy

Very Nice! A wonderful new experience for me!

I bought this sustain pedal to go with my Korg Kronos LS 88 and I must say I was blow away by the
half damper control. It's amazing what you can accomplish with this. The smooth overlapping
sustained note transitions from melodic note and chords is something I have never experienced
before now. This can be done by half pedaling between chord and melody lines within the same
chord chart or scale. Once you learn the... read more

Great pedal
Stays in place, half damper works great, piano like feel. What more could you ask for? Make sure
you have the right keyboard this only works properly with professional boards made by Korg,
Novation, Fatar, and some Casio. It will work with others but it comes negative polarity out of the

Works great!
I purchased this pedal for use with my Korg TR Workstation. It is solidly built and doesn't tip over.
The pedal's resistance is set just right to allow the musician perfect control over its movement. The
pedal affects both the analog and MIDI outputs of the Korg TR keyboard.

AWESOME KORG SUSTAIN PEDAL

This product is really awesome. This is my first KORG KRONOS 88 LS Workstation and Korg has
their own pedals for everything. Cannot wait to get the rest of the Pedals. Sweetwater is awesome
as always. one reason i trust and Love SWEETWATER is their RETURN POLICY NO QUESTIONS
ASKED. That is a huge reason and the only reason I give them 99% of my business.
