2.11 Using Pedals with KOMPLETE KONTROL S-SERIES
Your KOMPLETE KONTROL S-SERIES provides you two pedal inputs in the form of 1/4" sock-
ets on its rear panel: SUSTAIN and EXPRESSION.
The pedal inputs on the rear panel of your keyboard
These sockets allow you to connect sustain and expression pedals in order to further refine
your performance.
▪ SUSTAIN: Lets you connect a footswitch to control the sustain of the notes you play. This
is an on/off switch.
▪ EXPRESSION: Lets you connect an expression pedal to control e.g. velocity. This is a con-
tinuous control.
For information on how to assign the pedals via MIDI, refer to the Controller Editor Man-
ual.
Setting the Polarity for the Sustain Pedal
The KOMPLETE KONTROL S-SERIES automatically configures the polarity for the connected
sustain pedal when you switch on the keyboard.
►
Set your sustain pedal to the ‘off’ or ‘non-pressed’ state when switching on your KOM-
PLETE KONTROL S-SERIES keyboard to ensure the polarity is configured correctly.
If your sustain pedal acts inversely, you can correct the polarity by following the steps below:
1. Switch off your KOMPLETE KONTROL S-SERIES keyboard.
2. Set your sustain pedal to the ‘off’ or ‘non-pressed’ state.
