I've looked at this Creeper thing from "Creep No More" I've emailed for the size of it, haven't got any response...

Q: Does anyone own this..if so, what is its size?

Any other solutions out there I haven't heard about yet?

Soulds like a good stocking stuffer from one of the kids, lol.

Try this link instead:

Also, I've had some success pasting sand paper to the bottom of my pedals. Might want to give that a try.

Bill,

For under $2 you can purchase some stick-on soft rubber nubs at Radio Shack. They're like a small rubber ball that has been sliced in half and has adhesive on one side. Put one on each corner of the pedal and it will not move on tile, carpeting or concrete. Been using them for years.

Shboom,

Though I've used duct tape to hold a lot of things together, it unfortunately leaves behind a sticky residue that is really difficult to remove. Those little nubs from Radio Shack don't leave residue, do the job and they look good too!

"Creep No More" sounds good. Anything to get people to stop calling me a creep.

I hear ya Gary...I guess I was referring to some of the large elevated stages that we play on, where there's a clean up crew after the show. I've often thought about the idea of mounting a rubber pad on the bottom side of a volume pedal. I do guitar work as well while doing kbs, so the floor below me often looks like an electronic store blew up, with half a dozen stomp boxes and two volume controls, along with a snake or two.

Hi Bill

I've got a Roland piano type sustain pedal that has a piece of rubbery material the same dimensions as the bottom of the pedal that is attached to a screw on the pedal nearest you that swivels so you can put your foot on it to hold it in place. It also has rubber feet on the pedal.

I don't see any model number. Someone gave it to me, so I don't know how old it is or if it's still made.

This pedal is certainly a step in the right direction. (no pun intended)

Scott, I have the exact same sustain pedal.

I got tired of kicking it across the stage and put it in the bag in favor of a slightly heavier one, lol...

Hi Bill

I don't use mine either.

What I do use with my Tyros is 3 Bespeco VM20's. They latch together. I use the right one for sustain, middle is for fill and the left is for glide. I like it.
http://www.sheehans.com/CGIBIN/PRIAMLNK.CGI?MP=GIN143&CNO=1&SORT=PL&SEARCH=AGP&MODE=ST

They'll probably run you anywhere from $15-$25 apiece.

I bought one several years ago for $15. Recently I bought one on ebay for $7 with shipping. Then I added another, which cost me about $20.

I keep them all locked together, so they don't slip apart, by wedging a little piece of business card between them. This keeps them all secure.

Each pedal has four rubber feet, so you get a total of 12 little feet working for you.

I use some 3' different colored cords from Peavey to help know which pedal plugs where into the Tyros.

Best
Scott

I have the Creep-No-More and it is wonderful.
Keeps the foot pedal perfectly in place, it
does not move at all. The main part is only
about 2 by 5 inches
It has a slot that the
cord fits in and then has a material strip(almost like felt) attached to it. This strip is about 21 inches long. Can be left
that way or folded under if you want it smaller. I highly recommed it. I gave one
to a friend of mine who plays professionally
and he wouldn't be without it. I ordered mine from Dan at Keyboardstoday.com for $l6.95.
