I left my pedal home one job and it was awful without it.

It works like a wave...

If the key hits the bottom, the pedal starts moving up
And then down again
And as the pedal hits the bottom, keys can be released.

After a while i guess, it turns into a natural flow..

And then there is the question, when to pedal and when not?


I guess most arrranger players master this technique
As well as the expression pedal

Back from a DOUBLE booked gig (and we had confirmed by email). "Oh, I am so sorry". Luckily, I was rebooked and off I went to go home for more 15 hours of sleep. Awful cold, viral infection, total lethargy that should keep me at home anyway.

Hope no one else has this junk.
