These inputs both allow you to connect either a continuous or a switch pedal in order to further
refine your performance. They can be freely configured for sustain or expression behavior.
You can define the MIDI messages assigned to the pedal inputs in KOM-
PLETE KONTROL’s MIDI Assignment editor. For more information, refer to Using
the MIDI Assignment Editor.
Connecting Pedals
• Connect a continuous or switch pedal to the PEDAL A or PEDAL B inputs on the rear panel
of the keyboard.
Configuring the Pedal Input for a Sustain Pedal
When a switch pedal is connected:
1. Click the MIDI Assignment editor button in the Header to open the MIDI Assignment editor.
2. Select the control element type PEDALS.
3. Select the pedal input you want to configure, either Pedal A or Pedal B.
4. Select Switch from the Mode drop-down menu.
5. Depending on inverted tip/ring connectivity of the pedal, select either Tip or Ring.
The pedal input is configured for a switch pedal with sustain behavior. If you need to change
the MIDI Control Change message assigned to the pedal input, refer to Using the MIDI As-
signment Editor.
