Detail 01
Momentary action
The circuit closes only while your foot is down. Latching functions like on/off toggles need a different switch type.

KORGPS3 Single Momentary Footswitch
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A momentary footswitch for keyboards and gear with a single switch jack. Buy it if your instrument needs a sustain or tap-tempo pedal and did not come with one.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Adding sustain to a keyboard or synth that shipped without a pedal
- Hands-free tap tempo or patch change on a rack or amp
- Punching in on a recorder or looper without touching the unit
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Gear that requires a latching (on/off) switch instead of momentary
- Players wanting a heavy piano-style sustain pedal feel
- Continuous control like volume swells or expression sweeps
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Single switch
One function per press. Gear needing two footswitch functions on one jack will not be fully controlled.
Detail 03
Standard 1/4" plug
Plugs into the sustain, damper, or assignable switch jack found on most keyboards and amps.
Detail 04
Compact pedal body
Light enough to slide in a gig bag, but it can travel on a slick stage floor during use.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check whether your instrument expects momentary or latching; the wrong type behaves backwards or not at all.
- 02Some gear has a polarity switch or a calibration setting — set it before deciding it is faulty.
- 03No cable extension included; the attached lead sets how far the pedal can sit.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this work as a sustain pedal?
Yes, on any keyboard with a 1/4" sustain or damper jack that accepts a momentary switch. Notes hold while you hold the pedal down.
02What is the difference between momentary and latching?
Momentary is active only while pressed, like a doorbell. Latching stays on until you press again, like a light switch. This one is momentary.
03My sustain works backwards — is it broken?
That is a polarity mismatch. Many keyboards have a pedal polarity setting in the menu, or they auto-detect if you power up with the pedal already plugged in and untouched.
04Can I use it for tap tempo?
Yes, if your device has an assignable footswitch jack that accepts a momentary switch for tap tempo.
