![]() ![]() For Windows users, it’s also nice that its drivers allow for it to be used as a general audio device – for a budget studio, having one audio device that can handle all of your needs might tip the balance in its favor. StealthPedal didn’t used to have any competition in this regard, but now it does, and the Rig Kontrol 3 is a very respectable competitor indeed, with a multitude of included switches and the expression pedal. The easiest things to assign are on/off switches, but you can set a switch to do any number of things, including switch between two different parameter values if, for example, you wanted to have a chorus with two modulation speeds or depths (or both) in a song with the ability to switch between them, or if you wanted to be able to switch between your preamp gain set lower or higher.Īgain, it works with any MIDI capable software, sending the MIDI control data over USB alongside audio if you prefer to use it as your audio interface. Now, when you have the “Distortion” pedal in the first Stomp Box section of AT3, that button will control the bypass. Then, click the “Learn” button, and hit the switch you want to control the bypass. So, make sure to Arm parameter 1 so that it can receive control input. A second ago we set Parameter 1 to control the Bypass on a Distortion in Stomp Module 1. From there, set the mode to at least “Touch” or greater so that it will have an effect on the parameter (otherwise it won’t). Make sure to hit “Ok” afterward it’s sort of like “apply,” and if you don’t hit it, it won’t save the changes you’ve made.įrom there, it’s just a matter of going into REAPER’s automation menu for the track (the button labeled “env” by default, right after “io”). What it does is makes it so that a Distortion loaded in Stomp module section 1 will be assigned to AT3’s DAW Parameter 1. Which is just a goof on my part because I’m tired. In this case, though I loaded an Overscream, I set it to control the bypass on a Distortion. ![]() ![]() From there, browse to the thing you want to be controlled as Parameter 1 (Amplitube 3 allows a DAW limited parameters to control, so choose what you need control over pretty carefully if you’ve got a complex signal chain). Click on the “Auto” button down at the bottom there. In Amplitube 3, you need to assign the thing you want to control to a DAW Automation slot. In Reaper, you enable it as an input device, like so: From there, here’s what you need to do to have it actually control a value in Amplitube 3 in REAPER. That just makes it capable of sending MIDI control data via USB along with audio. The first thing you need to do is to open up the Controller Editor so that Rig Kontrol 3 switches into “con” mode on its red LED display. The images are larger than the blog will natively display, but making them smaller obscures the text substantially! So, please click on the image and use your browser’s “view image” function to see the image without any cropping or oddness. Below I’ve included a brief walkthrough of how to get it to work with Amplitube 3 via REAPER’s Automation. Now, instead of just controlling Guitar Rig software, it interfaces with any DAW or standalone app that can accept MIDI thanks to Native’s Controller Editor program. It’s had a fair bit of improvement via software since its launch as the original Rig Kontrol 3. Native Instruments is currently conducting further systematic compatibility and performance tests with the release version of Yosemite, and will provide new information as it becomes available.In the process of preparing a review for Native Instruments Guitar Rig 4: Kontrol Edition, I put the controller through the paces pretty heavily. Native Instruments and Avid are working together to resolve this compatibility issue. However, products with a hardware dependency, such as MASCHINE, KOMPLETE KONTROL, TRAKTOR, GUITAR RIG, and Controller Editor will not launch when the AVID CoreAudioManager/Drivers are installed under 10.10 Yosemite. ![]() "Native Instruments has conducted compatibility tests with Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite which have shown current NI products to work without any specific issues under standard installations of this operating system. (I pass this on in case anyone is using these products) ![]()
