Quick Start

Turning on the power

1.
Connect the KONTROL49 to your computer, and turn on the power. ( p.6
"Making connections and turning the power on")
You will automatically enter Play mode.
The main display shows the name of the currently
selected scene.
Start up the software that you want to operate from the
KONTROL49, and make the appropriate USB and
MIDI settings in your software. For details on USB and
MIDI settings, refer to the owner's manuals for your
software and computer.

Selecting a scene

2.
You can assign parameters to the KONTROL49's encoders, sliders, and
other controllers in order to control your DAW or soft synthesizers just as
you like. These settings are collectively called a "scene."
The KONTROL49 contains twelve preset scenes. Refer to the scene list in the
included CD-ROM and select the most suitable scene for controlling your
software. The included CD-ROM contains numerous scenes designed for
specific software, in addition to the twelve factory-set internal scenes.
• As an example, here's how to select scene 2.
2
Step 1. Press the [SCENE] key.
While you hold down the key, the main display will indicate "ScenePd?"
Trigger pads to which a scene is registered will light, and the pad for the
currently selected scene number 1 will blink. ( p.52 "Scene mode")
The scene number matches the number that is printed at the upper right of
each pad.
Step 2. Hold down the [SCENE] key and press the pad that has "2" printed
above it. The scene will change, and the main display will indicate the name
of scene number 2.
Step 3. When you release the [SCENE] key you will return to Play mode.
Operate the KONTROL49's controllers to control the software on your
computer. ( p.13 "Play mode")

Making controller assignments

3.
You can assign the pads, sliders, encoders, vector joystick, and pedals to a
wide variety of MIDI messages.
• As an example, we'll assign control change number 10 on MIDI channel
1 to encoder 1, and control change number 15 on MIDI channel 2 to
encoder 2.
Step 1. Press the [SETTING] key.
While you hold down the key, the main display indicates "MenuPad?" and
the KONTROL49 waits for you to press one of the sixteen pads.
Step 2. Continue holding down the [SETTING] key, and press pad 1 which is
marked as [ENCODER]. ( p.20)
