M-Audio now offers M-Gear--a new brand of accessories designed to meet the needs of today's electronic musicians. The initial M-Gear line includes footswitches, keyboard covers, gig bags and more. All M-Gear products feature rugged design and comes with the assurance of a limited lifetime warranty.

M-Gear SP-1 Footswitch. The SP-1 is a sturdy, compact footswitch for today's keyboards and other electronic music gear.

The SP-1 carries an MSRP of $19.95 USD.

M-Gear SP-2 Sustain Pedal. Equipped with a 6' cable and a standard 1/4" plug, this classic-style pedal works with any M-Audio keyboard, as well as most other brands. Designed to work and feel just like an acoustic piano's sustain pedal, it has a specially designed rubber bottom that grips the floor and stays put while you play. The SP-2 retails for $29.95 USD.

M-Gear EX-P Expression Pedal. M-Audio's EX-P expression pedal works with all M-Audio MIDI controllers that have an expression pedal input. A built-in polarity switch insures compatibility with most other brands of controllers and keyboards as well.

This heavy-duty pedal features durable molded construction with integral 1/4" cable. The EX-P has an MSRP of $39.95 USD.
