Great Pedal

For years I was constantly frustrated with pedals that kept sliding away from me as I used them and then I discovered this pedal. Now embarrassingly I will say that I had no clue why Roland would make a pedal that had this "stupid" piece of flimsy rubber on the bottom of it that didn`t seem properly attached and more annoyingly, this "stupid" piece of rubber could swing out to the sides and even to the front of the pedal. I thought to myself, "Wow, QC at Roland is sliding!". I WAS WRONG. Roland is completely on top of their game and they addressed the sliding sustain pedal issue that we have all had for years with this simple and beautiful design. That "stupid" piece of flimsy rubber is designed to extend out towards the front of the pedal so when you put your foot down, it rests on it and holds the pedal in place! Its a simply genius design or maybe I`m just a little slow? You decide.

Can't go wrong with the DP-10

Had my last DP-10 for over 10 years and I abused it along the way. Solid piece of gear, last a long time. Nice half-damper capabilities as well

Best Damper I've Ever Used

This pedal was included with my Roland RD-700NX. I was initially surprised by how good the pedal felt under my foot. The rubber plate on the bottom works perfectly as a non-slip pad--even on dusty tile floors. I've used quite a few dampers, and this is the best one I've seen. If you need a damper pedal, get this one.

this is the one

If you want better control of your sustain, especially with keyboards that offer split or layered sounds, this is it. the less expensive switch pedals that just turn full sustain on and off don't cut it to your discerning ear. Spend the extra bucks you wont regret it.

Perfect

Love the "anti-chase" pad!

Reliable and stays put.

Let's face it, sustain pedals are switches so technically they're not amzing. Where this unit shines is in reliability and the fold out rubber foot plate. I own four of these. My oldest pedal has sustained over 12 years of heavy use (my foot gets pretty excited).

I used to keep the fold out rubber plate extension tucked away until I realized that using it allowed my heel to hold the pedal in place no matter how slippery the floor is. This feature sets this pedal apart and saves me from tip-toeing in the dark under my rig to find where it slipped to.

I used to wish that the cord was not permanently attached and that I could plug in a shorter cord carry a spare just in case. But after so manny years, the cord has never failed on me and I've never had to worry about forgetting my detatchable cords.
