Reviews around expect (5.00 of 5)

  • Works as expected, but I do have to add that it definitely does feel heavy and give the feel of playing a real piano which was very important to me
  • Worked just as expected and sits very stable on the floor while playing the piano.
  • Bought for use with my Yamaha P-105. Works surprisingly well for a relatively inexpensive pedal.

Reviews around feel (5.00 of 5)

  • this pedal is perfect, stays in place, and it has a great feel to it.
  • While not creating the realistic feel of an acoustic piano sustain pedal, it does allow for expressing piano pieces at a nearly acoustic experience.
  • The FC-4 has a good all around feel, more like a true piano pedal.
  • Has a nice "heavy" feel of a traditional sustain pedal from a real piano.
  • The pressure you need to apply for the sustain is a bit on the lighter side but not too much, so you don't lose the 'real feel'

Reviews around piano (3.86 of 5)

  • I was going to buy the Yamaha "survival kit" along with the keyboard until I noticed that it came with the cheaper (less piano-like) FC3 pedal
  • It's simple plug and play, and it works beautifully with my Yamaha EZ-220.This combined with an electronic keyboard with weighted keys and you got yourself a good substitute for an actual Grand Piano!(plus the additional "voices" and the much greater mobility)As other reviews state, it'd probably be best that you have the pedal up as plugging it in and turning the piano on to avoid sustain issues
  • This item was exactly what I needed to go along with the Yamaha Portable Grand Piano.
  • I have an old Technic electronic piano and this pedal works perfectly with it.
  • For the original Grand Piano voices and others of the like... it'll work beautifully

Reviews around keyboard (3.73 of 5)

  • I have a Yamaha Grand keyboard, and after one year of using the little plastic sustain pedal that came with the adaptor kit, the pedal broke in half.
  • Does the trick! Works perfectly with the YAMAHA keyboard we purchased!
  • it added sustained notes, warmth and depth to this little unpleasant keyboard
  • I use this with my Yamaha YPG-235 keyboard and it works great!
  • Nice weighted pedal though, doesn't feel like it would break as soon as you play a little dubstep ;D

Reviews around sustain (3.33 of 5)

  • If you don't, you may end up with polarity problems, where the sustain on / off will be reversed when depressing the pedal
  • When I first plugged in, the sustain was always on, and disabled when pressing the pedal
  • This pedal is far superior to the non-piano-look of many sustain pedals available for keyboards - at least for someone like me who grew up using an actual piano with its build in pedals.
  • Yamaha Elektronik Europa shipped the yamaha FC4 piano Style Sustain Pedal quickly and worked and is plugged into my Yamaha E433 keyboard now.
  • If I did not depress the pedal, the sound was sustained.
