Once you have learned to call up the Browser via the on-screen overlay and to use it to load an
instrument, it is time to find out more about some of the features that make KOMPLETE KON-
TROL so unique: Smart Play and the Light Guide.
Smart Play
Rather than just being a Browser for your instruments, KOMPLETE KONTROL is also equipped
with the versatile and powerful Smart Play functions. You can generate and play a huge variety
of scales, chords, and sequences and even have them played back visually to you by the LEDs
in the Light Guide on your KOMPLETE KONTROL S-SERIES. For detailed information about
Smart Play and its parameters, see section ↑7, KOMPLETE KONTROL Smart Play. In the tuto-
rials below you will learn how to:
▪ Edit the scale and arp parameters
▪ Map the keys to a scale and play it
▪ Understand the information given by the Light Guide
▪ Automatically play notes as harmonized chords
▪ Automatically play back chords as arpeggiated note sequences
