Connecting A Dual Switch Pedal; The Cc (Volume) Jack - Kurzweil Artis Getting Started Manual

GETTING STARTED GUIDE

Connecting a Dual Switch Pedal

You can connect a dual switch pedal with a single stereo plug, such as the Kurzweil KFP-2S,
into the SW1 Pedal and SW2 Pedal jacks. Both SW1 and SW2 can support a dual pedal each
allowing up to 4 pedals to be utilized by the Artis. These are enumerated as SW1a, SW1b,
SW2a and SW2b. The Artis will recognize dual pedals that are wired as TS and RS, such as
the KFP-2S.
If you're not familiar with traditional piano technique, the sostenuto (center) pedal on a grand
piano allows one to hold chords in the bass while continuing to play the melody without the
latter notes sustaining. Any keys that are down when you depress the pedal will sustain when
you let go of the keys, but new notes played afterward will not be sustained. Releasing the
pedal puts things back to normal. Of course it can be programmed to do other functions as
well.

The CC (Volume) Jack

A continuous control pedal can be very useful for controlling volume, wah, or other effects
by foot.
The Kurzweil CC-1 continuous control pedal will work best with the Artis, but it is also
possible to use third-party continuous control pedals designed for synthesizers.
