Yamaha FC 5 Sustain Pedal

I use it with my Nord Electro 6D keyboard to control both the sustain and the leslie simulation depending on which program I am at.

I'm very satisfied because I got exactly what I needed, a metal pedal with a slim design and great response. Has a nice rubber underneath so it doesn't move as you press it.

Bear in mind that this model doesn't have the polarity switch. I have no problem with this since I can change the polarity on my Nord keyboard.

All in all a nice simple product that does it's job and feels sturdy!

Simple and sturdy. I have it for few years now and use it mostly with synth/workstation. I got another one, fancier and more expensive purely for digital piano and after 2 years it failed, so I took that cheap Yamaha FC 5 out of my box and it still does the job.

Very good quality, it works trouble-free since the first day. It sticks on the ground and doesn't slide away with each push, like other pedals. It is also compatible with several devices witch use a non-latching footswitch and it works perfectly in every situation. I will buy another one if I get another synth.

The original sustain pedal for my YAMAHA P-255 is just to bulky to carry with in a keyboard bag. I bought the FC5 pedal as an lightweight alternative for the road. This pedal has not the same feeling as the FC-3A comes with but it is absolutely enough for my gigs in a blues-rock band. When playing classics I definitively would go for the FC-3A instead. Again it is a bit pricey compared to other offers. But this is what you have to take when choosing original manufacturer parts.

Straightforward pedal that works so far has worked fine. Good value for money.

I've owned several different brands of sustain pedals (M-Audio, Nord, Proel) and they are all big, bulky and quite reliable, so I had my doubts when I ordered the tiny FC-5. Wow, it was quite a surprise - VERY durable, fully metallic housing with a good rubber grip and an overall pleasing and reliable click of the switch. It effectively replaced all of my sustain pedals in a heartbeat.

Compared to other similar pedals I've used, this one is a bit heavier. It is very rugged and doesn't slide under the foot like some lighter pedals would.

The action is robust. Spring isn't too light and you can actually feel the feedback when pressing the pedal.

I decided to get this pedal even though I couldn't find an answer online whether this one would work with my Novation Launchkey MIDI keyboard. To my surprise, it works very well and haven't had any issues so far. Feels very sturdy as well!

Purchased this pedal for my camper van, as I have a piano fitted. I loved the rubber backing so the pedal didn't slide around when using it on polished floors

It is well made and works great. I use it with my Yamaha Reface CP.
