Sustaining notes
The AX-Synth provides two controls for holding the
notes you are currently playing.
HOLD button
This button allows you to hold the notes you play on the
keyboard in much the same way as on an acoustic
piano.
Play a note or chord and press [HOLD] to sustain the
note(s).
FOOT PEDAL socket
Also called “sustain” or “damper”, an optional footswitch
you connect to the FOOT PEDAL socket allows you to
hold the notes you play on the keyboard in much the
same way as on an acoustic piano.
For obvious reasons, connecting a footswitch to the
AX-Synth while using it to move around on stage seems
impractical. In such cases, we recommend using the
[HOLD] button.
Note: Please use a Roland DP-series or a BOSS FS-5U foot-
switch to ensure that it uses the correct polarity (on when
pressed, off when released).
Note: The AX-Synth does not support expression pedals.
