KOMPLETE KONTROL’s Smart Play lets you generate and play a multitude of scales, chords,
and arpeggios simply by pressing a key on your KOMPLETE KONTROL S-SERIES keyboard. By
mapping the keyboard’s keys to a scale, you can ensure that you’ll always stay in key as well as
learn to play new and interesting types of music.
The LEDs in the Light Guide give you visual feedback in real time, letting you know what keys
are active and which notes are being played back. You can even follow the Light Guide when
you are playing back a MIDI note pattern from a host application.
