Can I set up a sustain pedal in Komplete Kontrol with an Akai MPK Mini Plus?
I've watched seemingly every video I can find, and nothing has worked. I never get the MIDI editor control button, which I'm reading is only available on specific NI keyboards. In the MIDI Learn screen all I see are buttons and knobs. I know the pedal is working because the keyboard shows the input. I know KK sees it…

How to simply assign a damper pedal on S88 MK3 ??
Hi My sustain pedal works fine on my S88 MKIII but I plugged a second midi pedal (On Stage or something generic… on and off signal) to the other input on the back and cannot for the life of me figure out how to permanently assign it to be a damper pedal for simple piano work. I have scoured the forums and even chat GBT…

My sustain pedal is not working for Kontakt
I use Kontakt 7 as a plug-in for mainstage. when I load up a library, the piano is sustained the whole time. I tried to look for the problem but I couldn't seem to find the solution for it. My MIDI keyboard is an Arturia keylab essential and my sustain pedal is proline universal with a polarity switch.

Can't believe we still have the sustain problem
Each time I fire up my KK MK3 S61 keyboard I have to go in the setup so the pedal works as intended. Can't believe we still have this problem after such a long time. As always NI doesn't seem to give a damn about it's userbase. Shame!

Purchased S88 MK3 a month ago. Turns out the inverted Sustain pedal wrong recall is not fixed.
Hello. I was pulling my hair because the pedal randomly inverts on my MK3 on each keyboard boot. I checked with MIDIOx and can confirm it does that. I can never know if the pedal is going to work correctly and often I need to either reboot the keyboard or fix it in the MK3 OS. Is there any ETA for a fix? It is quite an…

Konplete Kontrol Template and Sustain Pedal MIDI Channel
Hi guys, I’ve been having a problem with the sustain pedal on my S61 MkII; it’s a standard Roland DP10 Piano Style pedal, and as far as I can tell the pedal is working perfectly.

However, when I use Kontakt 7 Player, the sustain pedal does not release…

KK S61 Mk3 sustain pedal invert problem
Since it seems that you can't contact support on NI website (thanks), I'll list my problem here: Every time I fire up my new KK S61 Mk3, the sustain pedal behaves wrong, meaning that it sustains the sound when it's not pressed. I have to go into settings each time and change whatever value is there (normal/invert) in order…

Pedal for S61 Mk3?

Noire CC64 Controller (Sustain)
Hello. I tested the behavior of the CC64 controller in VST Noire because the sustain of the instrument seemed unnatural to me. (See table). The behavior was measured from note A1 - A7.
