I’ve been using the Yamaha FC4A sustain pedal with my digital piano, and honestly, it’s pretty solid. It feels close to an acoustic piano pedal—smooth and responsive, with a rubber bottom that keeps it from sliding around. Works great with my Yamaha keyboard and even my synth. One hiccup: it doesn’t have a polarity switch, so I had to mess with the power trick to fix the reverse sustain issue (pain in the butt, but it worked). It’s not the heaviest pedal, so it might shift a tad during wild sessions. Still, for the price, it’s a reliable little champ!

Yamaha FC4A Sustain Pedal
A foot pedal for use with digital pianos, keyboards, synthesizers, and stage pianos. This pedal offers a feel close to that of the pedal on an acoustic piano.
Important - Switching polarity on your pedal
Note:
If a sustain pedal plugged into a Yamaha keyboard is producing the opposite effect - sustaining when the pedal is not depressed, and not sustaining when it is depressed - it's usually because (a) the pedal was plugged in while the keyboard was turned on, or (b) the pedal was depressed while the unit was powering on. This tricks the keyboard into thinking the default state of the pedal is depressed, resulting in a reverse polarity or reverse function. There's an easy way to remedy this:
1) With the unit turned on and the sustain pedal plugged in, depress and hold the sustain pedal while you power the unit off.
2) Release the sustain pedal once the unit has been turned off.
3) Turn the unit back on.
If that doesn't solve the problem and further troubleshooting is needed, please contact our Support team here.
Compatible with assignable switch functions
Compatible with assignable switch functions, allowing the player to call up the desired function or setting just by depressing the pedal. Just one pedal broadens the range of performance.

Excellent Pedal With One Small Design Flaw
Just as Yamaha arguably makes the best digital pianos, this is probably the best piano style sustain pedal available. Super quiet and smooth with nice tacky rubber pads on the bottom to help prevent sliding. One small design flaw though, which I believe is with most of these style pedals. If you're pushing the pedal all the way back against a wall or some other hard surface, the wire coming out the back will hit the wall before the casing of the pedal does, possibly eventually causing damage to the wire. I was able to remedy this by attaching a 99 cent store adhesive felt furniture pad on the bottom of the pedal on the back which extends out farther than the wire which prevents the wire from hitting the wall. See photos.

This pedal is worth every penny! The set up is seamless and quite self explanatory. There are no creaks or weird/unwanted noises from the pedal when it pumped while playing. It’s build quality is exceptional, and stays put on the carpet really well. It doesn’t seem to be made of that cheap, lightweight plastic a lot of the universal pedals are made with. It’s got some weight to it’s base and the pedal itself is weighted quite well so that you do have to put a considerable amount of pressure on it to get it to go down, which is perfect for those of us enthusiastic players! It is not equipped with a Polarity Switch but in my opinion, it doesn’t need one. I own a Yamaha PSR-EW300 and as soon as it was out of the box and plugged in, it worked right away. If you are using it with another brand of keyboard I’d do more research into what pedal would work best for your board and if you’d need one with a Polarity Switch. This pedal is a little bit more pricey than some of the other pedals, after taxes and everything it costed me $31.34 but it’s worth that extra $5 to $10 as it will definitely last longer than majority of the cheaper quality pedals and the sound quality is better as well. Just as a side note, I did receive my pedal with some sort of sticky stuff stuck to it, but a swipe of some Goo Gone and it was history! Another great Yamaha product!
