  Overall Opinion

  The M-Audio SP-2 is a sustain pedal for use with electronic and MIDI keyboards. It's compatible with anything that has a 1/4" output for a sustain pedal, which is going to be pretty much every digital keyboard out there. It's got the traditional design for a sustain pedal however, as it's not the cheap press down button that you'll see a lot of out there. This is for players who want a more realistic feel for their sustain pedal, somewhere in the vein of that you'd get while playing a real piano. It can be used for applications beyond sustain as long as your keyboard has the option for sending to another kind of pedal, however, probably 9 times out of 10 people are going to be using the SP-2 for sustaining, and that's what I've used it for as well. I've used the SP-2 along with an M-Audio Axion 61 MIDI controller and I've found it to do the job adequately for inducing sustain into your sound. I love that it has a realistic feel like a real piano would, and while it doesn't feel as sturdy as a real one would, it's close enough to get the job done. I personally don't have this at home but I'm thinking about making an upgrade to it as I've only got a simple press down sustain pedal as of now. This is a lot better and more realistic as I've found out while using it at a home studio where I work with the producer who owns it. The M-Audio SP-2 isn't going to cost you too much at all and if you're after a realistic feel all around for your MIDI controller or other electronic keyboard, the SP-2 or something like it is definitely a good thing to pick up.

  Overall Opinion

  I confirm the two previous opinions, Pedal SP-2 from M-Audio is a very good pedal. I had the Yamaha FC4 particular, and a pedal similar to the phase inverter with SP2 (which you can connect this type of pedal on ALL keyboards and synths), M-Audio has the huge plus: its weight! It is heavy enough, is guaranteed not to escape from under the feet when you use it, which is not the case for two other models I've owned. She also has a "feel" close to a real piano pedal, which is nice.
  
  In short, the foot might say!
  
  I remake that choice without hesitation.

  Overall Opinion

  to support the view of HooDoo00, I confirm that this pedal is definitely the best on the market!
  
  Maybe because of its "volume", DJs and others will find it a little big, but for others it is a real pedal like the piano "
  
  I have one for many years and have never encountered any problem, I just to buy another for a second keyboard (included with the keyboard but not worth a Carambar) ...
  
  in view of what can be done elsewhere (even from M-Audio), I highly recommend this pedal, ergonomic and safe .. performance
  
  
  
  So, yeah, great pedal to buy with your eyes closed for less than 30 euros, including postage-(see the comparative prices)

  Overall Opinion

  I use it for only 3 days with a keyboard controller M-Audio Axiom, but in truth, a sustain pedal, it traveled fast.
  
  
  
  What I like most about this pedal is its weight that allows you to remain perfectly still on the ground when used, even on a polished floor with me.
  
  
  
  I never tried other pedals before except that of my piano and the feeling is much the same.
  
  
  
  Level for money? I do not know if it's worth talking about for 30 euros ... but to play the game, let's say that's reasonable.
  
  
  
  After some tests I can say that I do it again this election, because we have much more control of sounds, and you can even bring out aspects of them we did not know before trying the pedal. And to play with a good plug in to acoustic piano is essential.
