I agree and that's hardly any unless I am wrong I haven't seen them.
Times change and so do KB playing techniques
as NEW technology is adapted. keys


But I think you're missing the point here. Playing bass pedals is not something replaced by technology and left in the dustbin of history; it's a legitimate part of a playing technique usually reserved for the playing of conventional/traditional ORGANS. If real ORGANS are still around 100 years from now (and they probably will be as long as there are large, wealthy, mostly Catholic, cathedrals), so will PEDALS!!! Although technology has introduced standalone or MIDI pedals that can be played with (or without) ANY instrument, keyboard or otherwise, that doesn't change the basic concept that bass pedals are a part of an instrument known as an ORGAN and that any competent or classically trained organist would not only be able to play them but would EXPECT them to be present on his instrument. So Donny, back to your original question, 'who's interested in bass pedals?'; primarily organists and a few others who'd like a little extra flexibility in their playing. One other thing; you may have noticed (as an old B3 player) that the audience seems intrigued with watching pedal footwork, which of course adds to the 'visuals' in your performance.
