Hello all, I actually found a good footswitch for the CP's metro footswitch in.  Its a SCI 
Prophet 600 footswitch, works just fine.  Im a newbie to the Polaris (and synthesis in 
general), what else can the metro footswitch do?  I tried connecting a PS-10 Sustain pedal 
to the SUS in but guess it doesnt work. Anybody know any good sustain pedals work on 
this beast? Alright thanks again.

Marco
