Re: [LAU] M-Audio 88es Keyboard

To me, connecting the midi first or after should have no influence,
midi is kind of hot plug.

On another hand, some keyboards need to have the pedal connected
*before* powering on the keyboard, so the polarity of the pedal is
correctly recognised.

You can check with a midi monitor if the pedals affects sending the
"Note off" messages, instead of just listening to the sound produced
by the sampler
