Startup—the Details
Pedals
Plug your switch or continuous pedals into the corresponding jacks on the PC3K’s rear panel.
We recommend using the Kurzweil pedals described on page 1 ‐ 5, but you can use almost any
switch or continuous pedal, as long as it adheres to the following specifications (as most pedals
do):
Switch pedals
1
/
4
‐ inch tip ‐ sleeve plug
Continuous pedals 10 ‐ kOhm linear ‐ taper potentiometer,
1
/
4
‐ inch tip ‐ ring ‐ sleeve plug
with the wiper connected to the tip.
If you use a third ‐ party (non ‐ Kurzweil) switch pedal, make sure it’s connected before you turn
on your PC3K. This ensures that the pedal will work properly (it might function backward—off
when it’s down and on when it’s up—if you turn on your PC3K before plugging in the pedal).
Similarly, don’t press any of your switch pedals while powering up, because the PC3K verifies
each pedal’s orientation during power up. If you’re pressing a pedal, you might cause it to work
backward.
The pedals are independently programmable within each zone of every setup. Here are the
default settings for the five pedals you can use with the PC3K:
Switch Pedal 1 Controller 64 ( Sustain )
Switch Pedal 2 Controller 66 ( Sostenuto )
Switch Pedal 3 Controller 67 ( Soft )
Continuous Control Pedal 1 Controller 11 ( Expression / Volume )
Continuous Control Pedal 2 Controller 4 ( Foot Pedal ) produces a “wah” effect in many setups
Breath
The 3.5mm jack labeled Breath accepts a standard breath controller, which sends standard MIDI
Breath (MIDI 2) messages. The PC3K’s preset programs and setups don’t respond to breath, but
if you have other instruments that do respond to Breath, you can control them from the PC3K via
MIDI.
You can also program the PC3K so that the breath controller sends a different MIDI message.
This would enable you to use a breath controller to affect the PC3K, but then other instruments
receiving MIDI from the PC3K would no longer respond to the PC3K’s breath controller (unless
you also programmed them to receive the same MIDI Controller that the PC3K’s breath
controller is sending).
