Is there a setting in the Kronos to do this?

I've noticed some software pianos that don't support half pedaling behave poorly when using my Korg continuous damper--is there a setting somewhere to have it simply send 0 and 127? Something I could toggle when I want to use one of those pianos?

You could possibly plug the pedal into the foot switch and assign it to sw1 or 2, then assign that to cc64.

The setting is within every program on the P1: Basic/Vector screen for HD-1 programs or on the P4: Basic/Vector screen for EXi programs. Lower right corner. Uncheck it to disable half-damper. Check it to enable half-damper control. There isn't anything in combi mode or a global assignment, afaik.

Because the Kronos automatically senses if a half-damper pedal is attached, one thing you could try is to pull the cable jack out just a bit to thwart the tip of the TRS connector. I'm not going to "recommended" this but I just attempted this on my M3 and checked to see what happened in SEQ mode, and it was a binary switch (0 - 127) instead of giving the intermediate values I typically see with half damper.

Edit: Maybe you could also try to calibrate the pedal in Global mode to get less half-damper response?
