Keystation Mini 32 - Sustain Mode

The Sustain button can work in two different modes called Toggle and Gate. Toggle mode is the default setting in which momentarily pressing the Sustain button and playing a note causes it to sustain after it has been played without keeping your hands on the keyboard. However, the sound will not stop until the button is pressed again.

Gate mode works in the same manner as a traditional sustain pedal, such that holding the Sustain button down and playing a note causes it to sustain until the button is released.

To change the Sustain mode from Toggle to Gate:

1. Press the Edit button. The Edit button light will illuminate to full brightness.
2. Press the “SUSTAIN MODE” key (A, 6th white key from the left). The Edit mode button will dim to half brightness indicating that programming is complete.

Now pressing the Sustain button and playing a note will cause it the sustain until the button is pressed a second time.

Note: The Sustain Mode setting is retained when the keyboard is turned off.

To return the Sustain button to Toggle mode (default):

1. Press the Edit button. The Edit button light will illuminate to full brightness.
2. Press the “SUSTAIN MODE” key (A, 6th white key from the left). The Edit mode button will dim to half brightness indicating that programming is complete.

Now holding the Sustain button down and playing a note will cause it the sustain until the button is pressed again.
