And then *all* keyboard and sample library manufacturers must support 
this feature in (at least) one of their products. My Korg virtual 
piano has 2 controllers on a damper pedal (half and full way) and 
none of the other equipment/software/libraries I know support the 
feature. Same about the sostenuto switch on my Akai machine. OTOH, 
the same Korg virtual piano does *not* support release velocity, a 
major bummer for people like myself who are used to controlling their 
performance with all these techniques. I guess some standards must be 
developed in MIDI before all of this can work as expected.

Best,

Andy
