▪
As switches are always either on or off, the brackets can be used to define the trig-
gered knob positions. Thus, you can configure a knob to switch between 12 o’clock
and full gain for a volume or intensity boost.
▪
Because you can drag the brackets across to either end, the mapping can be inverted
so that the assigned knob will be turned down when you push the switch, instead of
up. This is useful if you want to assign two different value changes to one control, e.g.
increasing gain while turning master volume down.

Assigning Functions to External Controllers
You can connect external footswitches or pedals to your RIG KONTROL’s analogue control-
ler inputs and easily assign them using the Virtual Rig Kontrol. Please make sure the in-
puts are correctly configured in the
Preferences
pane (see section
↑
8.2, Preferences
) first.
Activate the expert panel of the Virtual Rig Kontrol by clicking on the arrow button. In the
upper right corner there are two labels representing your analogue controllers, and they be-
have exactly like the Rig Kontrol labels. The assignment of functions works the same as
with the internal controls of the RIG KONTROL:
1. Click on the arrow button on the Virtual Rig Kontrol to show its expert panel.
2. Drag the
Pedal 1
or
Pedal 2
button onto any function in the Rack.
If the external footswitch you are using is “on” only while pressed (instead of switching be-
tween “on” and “off”), activate Toggle mode in the context menu of the according input.
