how to una corda pedal?

Post by kjbf_ »

Hi, I've a Korg SV-1 and I want to trigger the una corda pedal.
The problem is that if I put a switch pedal in the slot 2 it behaves like a volume pedal (a volume pedal that has only two volumes levels: max and min).

My guess is that in order to use the una corda pedal I have to first insert a switch pedal in the slot number 1 for the sostenuto pedal and then insert another pedal in the slot number 2.

Do anyone have any experience with this? I don't want to buy another pedal in order to find out that it doesn't work like that.

Thank you.

The user manual details pedal calibration on page31. The pedal inputs received by the SV-1 for pedal 2, during calibration, allows the SV-1 to determine which type of pedal is in use, and applies that accordingly. It's likely that the Pedal 2 input is presently calibrated for expression pedal, hence the observed behaviour. If the pedal type is changed, calibration needs to be repeated.
