The KOMPLETE KONTROL keyboard’s SETUP page gives you access to information and set-
tings related to the hardware.
• To open the SETUP page, press the SETUP button on the keyboard.
The following information and settings are available:
• Firmware: The version number of the firmware installed on the keyboard.
• Serial Nr.: The hardware serial number of the keyboard.
• Velocity / SCALING: Lets you adjust the velocity response curve of the keybed. Use the
Soft 3, Soft 2, Soft 1 settings to compensate for gentle playing (velocity response is more sen-
sitive), and the Hard 1, Hard 2, Hard 3 settings to compensate for strong playing (velocity re-
sponse is insensitive).
• Displays / BRIGHTNESS: Lets you adjust the brightness of the keyboard’s displays.
7.7. Loading a Plug-in in Default State
You can load a Plug-in in default state directly from the KOMPLETE KONTROL menu:

sive.
