Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Kurzweil's continuous control pedal — a sweepable foot pedal for volume, expression or wah-style control. For keyboard players who need more than an on/off switch.

Kurzweil CC-1 Continuous Control Pedal product detail
Product studyKurzweil CC-1 Continuous Control Pedal

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Swelling pads and strings in real time while both hands play
  • Riding organ or synth volume during a live set
  • Assigning expression to filter or effect depth on a synth

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Players who only need sustain — a simple footswitch costs less
  • Anyone wanting a guitar effects pedal; this is a controller, not an effect

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 01

Continuous control, not a switch

It sends a full sweep of values as you rock it, so you get gradual swells instead of on/off jumps.

Detail 02

Foot-operated

Frees both hands for the keys. Essential for organ and orchestral parts where volume moves constantly.

Detail 03

Kurzweil branded

Made to pair with Kurzweil keyboards. Behavior on other brands depends on how that board reads pedal input.

Detail 04

$89

Mid-tier controller pricing — above basic footswitches, below premium studio expression pedals.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Check your keyboard has a control, expression or continuous pedal input
  2. 02Sustain pedal jacks are a different function — plugging in there will not sweep
  3. 03Cable and pedal only; no keyboard or adapter included

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Is this a sustain pedal?

No. Sustain is on/off. This one sweeps continuously, so it is used for volume, expression and similar parameters.

02Can I use it with a non-Kurzweil keyboard?

It is designed for Kurzweil boards. On other brands it depends on that keyboard's pedal jack and how it interprets a continuous input.

03What can I control with it?

Anything your keyboard lets you assign to a continuous pedal — commonly volume, expression, and effect or filter amount.

04Does it work as a guitar pedal?

No. It is a controller for keyboards, not an effect that processes audio.
