Members StormFighter Posted October 30, 2019 Members Share Posted October 30, 2019 (edited) Hi everyone, my (very dear but musical beginner-) friend recently bought a cheap(ish) no-name digital piano online. (I wasn't aware, would have stopped her otherwise) The thing was delivered and works more or less. She was happy until she tried to connect a sustainer pedal... the "suspedal" jack is a 5-pin DIN... she connected her pedal to the audio output, which kind of didn't work... I have never seen a sustainer pedal with a DIN-connector and suppose there is no such thing on the market. I think they might have "accidentally" added a standard MIDI-trio to the board and basically forgotten about the pedal - has anyone ever seen such a thing? Thank you Alex Edited October 30, 2019 by StormFighter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Yes, there are a few keyboards that have a DIN connector for their pedals. I can't guarantee that this will work, but here's just one example. https://www.zzounds.com/item--CASSP34?siid=257714&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIgtfj8PjE5QIVjPhkCh3G9A4-EAQYBSABEgJY-fD_BwE It would help to know who made the keyboard in question... isn't there any identifying marks on it, such as a model number or anything like that?

Phil O'Keefe Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Yes, unfortunately you're right - I'm not finding much on that brand either. I can't guarantee the Casio footswitch would work with it. It might, but it might not... or it might be able to be modified to work with it - it's hard to say either way.

Members StormFighter Posted November 9, 2019 Author Members Share Posted November 9, 2019 Before I actually order that Casio thing... it looks like it has some kind of Mini-DIN plug, while the keyboard has a normal size DIN jack – am I right? I guess she will need some kind of adapter to even try if it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
