sustain pedal w' organ

11 Oct 2009, 17:35

Playing my X7, I tried using some organ patches w' the sustain pedal. It didn't work. Any suggestions,tips on how to use the sustain pedal w' an organ patch? Do you need an additional pedal to make it happen? Thanks!

Strange?
Sustain pedal works with all of my organ patches, and they are all stock.

Not mine. Open to suggestions from the gurus.

Go to your control window in the system mode and see if you're able to receive midi sustain messages, or if they are cancelled. Furthermore check your sustain pedal with other paches then organ patches, if it works it means that your organ patches are programmed to not receive sustain messages, so you'll have to do patch-by-patch editing.

The piano patches work fine w' the sustain pedal. I'll try what you suggested w' the organ patches & report back.

Some of the organ patches have the hold pedal controlling the rotary speed (or something else). To set the hold to sustain: HIt the patch edit button - then select "pro edit" - scroll left side to "misc". Then look for "Tone RX Hold - 1" It will be set to "off". Switch that to "on" for any of the four tones used and then save the patch.
