The Pedal Jacks

Use the three pedal jacks to connect controller pedals to Artis SE.
We recommend using Kurzweil pedals; however you can use almost any switch or continuous
control pedal that adheres to the following specifications.
Switch Pedals
Continuous Control
(CC) Pedals
Pedals are independently assignable within each Zone of every Multi. The default control
settings for the three pedals used by Artis SE are:
SW 1 Pedal
SW 2 Pedal
The SW1 and SW2 Jacks
Use these to connect switch pedals. A switch pedal is a physical controller typically used to
control two-state (i.e., "on / off") parameters, such as sustain, sostenuto, and Mute Zone.
When a single switch pedal is plugged into the SW1 Pedal jack on the rear panel, a single
switch pedal will, by default, act like a sustain pedal. When a single switch pedal is plugged
into the SW2 Pedal jack, the single switch pedal will, by default, act like a sostenuto pedal.

NOTE : Ensure that pedals are plugged in before powering up the
Artis SE and do not step on the switch pedals when powering up, as
the pedal type and state of the pedal is detected as part of the power
up sequence.
