Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the Roland PK-7A Pedal Keyboard.
In addition to the pedal keyboard, which greatly enhances enjoyment in playing the
organ, the PK-7A MIDI pedal keyboard unit also features an expression pedal that
lends precise and dynamic volume expression to performances, a foot switch that en-
ables pedal control over a variety of Roland VK-88/VK-8 combo organ functions, and
a hold pedal for sustaining notes.
Features
●
Twenty-note pedal keyboard and removable expression pedal
The PK-7A features a twenty-note pedal keyboard for maximum enjoyment of organ
playing. The built-in expression pedal can be removed from the pedal keyboard unit
to make the unit more compact for transportation.
●
Foot switches for controlling the VK-88/VK-8
Two foot switches are built into the expression pedal. When the PK-7A is connected to
a Roland VK-88 or VK-8 combo organ, you can then switch settings of the Roland VK-
88 or VK-8 as you perform without removing your foot from the expression pedal or
your hands from the keyboard.
●
Hold pedal
A hold pedal is located where it can be easily operated by your right foot, for
additional expressive possibilities when playing sustain-type sounds.
●
Single-cable connection to the VK-88
When connecting the PK-7A to the VK-88, the PK cable is the only connection
required–no need for MIDI cables, analog cables, or an AC adaptor. This makes setup
quick and easy.
●
Switching MIDI Channels and Octave Shift
The PK-7A also features a MIDI channel switching knob that allows you to match the
MIDI channel settings with other equipment when the PK-7A is connected to an
external MIDI device other than a Roland combo organ (VK Series). Furthermore, you
can use Octave Shift to change the pitch in octave increments.
