Has anyone had problems using expression pedals with the Komplete Kontrol ?

Chris23

I've been having a problem where the expression cc value is going crazy when trying to use a expression pedal. It'll keep cycling from 0 to 127 and back to zero when moving the pedal. Both the expression pedal and komplete kontrol are fairly new. Any one having or have a similar problem ?

If you copy and paste my url you will use a video of the problem I'm having.

Also forgot forgot to mention that I do have a compatible pedal listed from their website and I have set it up correctly according to the website instructions.

What model is it exactly?

So you've been through these steps already? How to Configure Sustain / Expression Pedals on Kontrol Keyboards

Have you tried to calibrate the pedal?

Calibration

You may calibrate your expression pedal to ensure that the Komplete Kontrol software interprets the full continuous range correctly.

1. Click the Calibrate button:
   
   
2. When prompted to move the pedal all the way down, move the pedal to the heel down - toes up position and click OK.

Sounds like you might have it in switch rather than continuous mode

Can you use both a continuous control and sustain pedals at the same time?

Waht do you mean? You can have, at least:

1 pedal for sustain as a switch.

1 pedal for expression or any other MIDI CC that is set to continuous.

It also has 2 more customisable inputs for pedals (so 4 pedal inputs in total) which is really useful

I'm having the exact same problem. Erratic oscillation between 0 and 127.
