Buy Nektar NP-1 Metal Foot Switch - Black at desertcart UK. Review: Good quality foot switch, well made. - Excellent , just what I needed for my electric spinning wheel. Just s light tap is all that is needed for start / stop action. Even had the correct jack plug. Well pleased with this well made solid device, its steel construction is ideal for a foot switch- nice and heavy so it keeps still on the floor, unlike light plastic type which skid away at the slightest tap. I recommend this device 100%. Review: Does exactly what's needed, and built perfectly well - The Nektar NP-1 is definitely well built - with a rubber grip on the top edge (where you press down on the pedal) and the same rubber on the bottom it grips the floor and you don't slip on it from use. I use this barefoot as well while I'm at home and it feels fine to use, with a very good travel for the cost and size. It's the same size physically as either a larger wallet or a medium sized smartphone, so it's easy to take with your MIDI controller or keyboard as needed. It uses a 6.35mm jack that fits in my controller fine (I use an AKAI MPK Mini Play, so it should work in those) so I can use this as a sustain pedal. It has a switch for polarity (as mentioned in the description) and that's the only thing on this that isn't made of metal, but realistically it's still as tough as it needs to be. The only negative using it as a sustain pedal is that, unlike other pedals, it can only work either fully on or fully off, as opposed to a more variable sustain pedal. It makes it good as a simpler pedal or something a bit more portable, but if you were permanently at home then you might be able to find something better. At the price I got it, definitely a good partner to any MIDI controller ## Features - Universal foot pedal - Heavy duty solid metal enclosure - Bottom rubber surface for solid floor-grip - Polarity switch - works with all keyboards - 6ft cable ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00KIXUG5I | | Actuator Type | Hinge Lever | | Best Sellers Rank | 2,509 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 59 in Electronic Piano Accessories | | Brand | Nektar | | Circuit Type | 2-way | | Colour | Black | | Connectivity Protocol | X-10 | | Connector Type | Plug In | | Connector type | Plug In | | Contact Material | Rubber | | Contact Type | metal | | Contact type | metal | | Control Method | Touch | | Controller Type | Foot Switch | | Country Of Origin | China | | Current Rating | 1 Amps | | Current rating | 1 Amps | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 363 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00859383002190 | | Included Components | NP-1 Pedal | | International Protection Rating | IP00 | | Item Dimensions | 10 x 7.5 x 3 centimetres | | Item Type Name | Foot pedal | | Item Weight | 259 Grams | | Item height | 3 centimetres | | Manufacturer | Nektar | | Material | Metal | | Model Number | NP-1 | | Mounting Type | Floor Mount | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Positions | 1 | | Operation Mode | Manual | | Operation mode | Manual | | Product Warranty | 2 year manufacturer. | | Switch Type | Foot Switch | | Switch type | Foot Switch | | Terminal | Physical | | UPC | 859383002190 | | Unit Count | 1 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Nektar - **Circuit type:** 2-way - **Connector type:** Plug In - **Contact type:** metal - **Current rating:** 1 Amps - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 10 x 7.5 x 3 centimetres - **Material:** Metal - **Operation mode:** Manual - **Switch type:** Foot Switch - **Terminal:** Physical ## Images ![Nektar NP-1 Metal Footswitch - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/813-u+5ffKL.jpg) ## 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 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality foot switch, well made. *by I***G on 21 September 2020* Excellent , just what I needed for my electric spinning wheel.

My fault for purchasing without knowing what I needed. Just in case this helps anyone else. ## Frequently Bought Together - Nektar NP-1 Metal Foot Switch - Black - Nektar NX-P Universal Expression Pedal ,Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/47997784-nektar-np-1-metal-footswitch](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/47997784-nektar-np-1-metal-footswitch) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
