Using Damper/Sus pedal with Legacy Collection Triton Extreme

I'm try to create arrangements with various softsynths plugins on separate tracks in Ableton Live.
Can anyone tell me if its possible to use a Damper/Sustain pedal to keep the rhythmic/arpeggiator playing on one the Triton 'rhythmic' patches so I can create a comp track using another instrument?
So far my damper pedal seems to be able to only control one voice of a Combi patch but never the rhythmic which I believe is running on the arpeggiator.
Trying to master the Collection Triton Extreme plugin but can't find any good tutorials which aren't focused on the original Triton hardware keyboard.

Thanks in advance to all Korg believers!

(BTW I started on and still have the T1, M1 and M3R and am looking for a good used Kronos X or 2 73).

What are you using as a controller?

Novation Impulse with a Roland damper/sustain pedal plugged into the Sustain 1/4" jack on the Novation.

I know you can set a custom CC to turn the arp(s) on and off, and I'd recommend that over the damper. If you go to the ARP tab you can right click on the arp on/off radio button and assign a CC value. If you open up the tabs for arp a and arp b you might be able to assign a separate CC value to each on/off but I don't recall. It may be a while before I can get the VST in front of me again. My buddy that has it is out of town currently but I can check when he gets back and things settle down.
