## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used as an On/Off switch for recording?**
A: That depends on the device, to which the NP-1 is connected. The NP-1 is a standard momentary footswitch (normally used as a Sustain pedal) but when connected to the footswitch input on a Panorama P1 it can be used to activate recording in a DAW application. The NP-1 will work with any device with an input for a momentary footswitch.

**Q: Would this be compatible with my boss rc-30 loop station?**
A: I haven't tested the RC-30 but that device expects a non-latching (momentary) footswitch, so it should work.

**Q: Does this sustain pedal works with Williams Allegro 2?**
A: As far as I'm concerned, this pedal works well with Roland, Yamaha, and Casio. I recently checked out the specs on the Williams Alegro keyboard and they have exactly the same outputs as any midi keyboard. It has a 1/4 Jack input-so yes. Best of luck.

**Q: I want the circuit to be closed ("on") when not pressing the switch, and to be open ("off") only when i press the foot switch.  will the np-1 do this?**
A: Yes, the switch next to the cable on the back of the pedal allows your to switch between normally open and normally closed operation.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not a 'latching' switch - if you're using it for a subwoofer
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 1 September 2021*

It's a really nice foot switch, however, it does not 'latch', meaning that if you want it to turn on/off a subwoofer, you'd have to hold the pedal down to keep the sub on (or off, if polarity reversed). My fault for purchasing without knowing what I needed. Just in case this helps anyone else.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Electric guitar channel switch
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 19 April 2026*

Very easy to use channel switchClean to dirty or dirty to clean via small switch at rear of unit good product at good price

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Quality Materials
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 17 November 2025*

Good quality metal, although the rubber pads ‘pop’ out of their holes and I’d suggest glueing them on instead of the ‘push-pop’ design currently used, especially where a heavy boot may be placed on it at regular intervals!
