Configuring Ableton Live for KOMPLETE KONTROL
Once the MIDI Remote Script and the Instrument Rack file are installed in the correct loca-
tion, you need to add KOMPLETE KONTROL as a control surface in Ableton Live's preferences.
1. Launch Ableton Live.
2. In Ableton Live, go to the Preferences and open the MIDI / Sync tab.
3. Assign a free Control Surface slot to KOMPLETE KONTROL by selecting it from the drop-
down menu.
4. Leave both the Input and the Output for the KOMPLETE KONTROL control surface set to
None.
Loading KOMPLETE KONTROL in Ableton Live
The KOMPLETE KONTROL stand-alone application must be opened once before using
the plug-in within your DAW for the first time, and after installing new Instruments.
► To load KOMPLETE KONTROL in Ableton Live, drag the KOMPLETE KONTROL Instru-
ment Rack (KOMPLETE KONTROL VST.adg) from the browser to an empty MIDI track.
You can find it here in the Ableton Live browser: Instruments/Instrument Rack/KOM-
PLETE KONTROL VST.adg
4.4 Connecting Pedals to the Keyboard
The KOMPLETE KONTROL keyboard provides you two pedal inputs (in the form of 1/4" sock-
ets) on its rear panel: PEDAL A and PEDAL B.
The pedal inputs on the rear panel of the keyboard.
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.
