That crossfading idea sounds interesting...not sure if I can do it on the Tyros4.

What about a volume pedal, Fran? That will let you increase (and decrease) the volume after the note begins. I can't live without one now.

PS...I use a old Roland sustain pedal (at least 15 years old)...the one with the rubber flap that lets you rest your heel on it, and it doesn't slide...ingenious!
