Honest Review of Yamaha FC4A Assignable Foot Pedal
Kevin Chambers
Product Description
Yamaha FC4A Assignable Piano Sustain Foot Pedal
From the manufacturer
Yamaha FC5 Sustain Pedal
Yamaha offers many different foot pedal/switch/controllers for a variety of functions. A compact version of the FC4, the FC5 performs similar to an acoustic piano's sustain pedal providing expression and feeling to any performance. The FC5 can also be used as a hands-free on/off switch for activating effects or even recording. 5' cable, 1/4" plug.
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.

The only thing that’s always bothered me about it though is that it slides around a lot on carpet. Every time I play at church, I have to readjust it and it gets destructing. I even put Velcro on the side of the pedal and the keyboard’s stand to keep it in place. The Velcro has gotten old though so it doesn’t stick as much anymore and still moves around a lot.
At home though, my room has a laminate floor so the rubber bottom seems to be able to grip a lot better. The pedal I have at home doesn’t seem to move around as much as the church pedal does.
Very durable pedal. Does what it’s supposed to.
I treat it nicely when I put it away and try not to put bend to the power cord any more than necessary. I expect that it will probably last me for many years.
I bought it for a Casio Electronic keyboard and it works great!
The quality of the plastic is very good and also the quality of the pedal which is made of metal.
The pedal is heavy, which makes it stable on the floor and does not move during use.
In one picture I showed the pedal with a 10.5 shoe.
For the fact that the product works without fail and is of high quality, I will give 5 stars.
