Rig Kontrol 3 - Foot Controller

Foot Controller with Built-In USB 2.0 Audio/MIDI Interface

Rig Kontrol 3 included with the Kontrol Edition makes life wonderfully easy. The enhanced foot controller can be used to control nearly any sound parameter. It now features a 192kHz/24 Bit USB 2.0 stereo audio interface and preamplifier for the fast and convenient connection of bass, guitar or any other instrument with your computer. Other than your computer you no longer need any additional hardware – just install the software, plug in Rig Kontrol 3 and your instrument and start playing. It's never been easier!

Two inputs allow the use of two guitars or basses simultaneously. Monitor everything with the dedicated headphone socket without needing a P.A. Ideal for practicing and on the road!


Immediate Sound Control

Rig Kontrol 3's continuous expression pedal and its nine switches are easily assignable to any parameter and afford complete real-time control of GUITAR RIG 3. Should you need real-time access to more parameters additional controllers and pedals may be connected to the dedicated inputs as well as to the MIDI interface. Switch presets, turn effects on and off, use the pedal as a wahwah or volume pedal - all while keeping your fingers on the strings.

The controller's data is transmitted via USB 2.0 – ensuring a much higher resolution and more precise control than via MIDI.


Controller Assignment

The GUITAR RIG 3 software allows fast, easy and convenient assignment of Rig Kontrol 3’s switches and pedal to software parameters and saves the assignments with the preset. If you wish, you can define a different controller assignment for every preset.

The new modulation matrix makes it possible to control multiple parameters just one controller, e.g. control the delay time, delay feedback and delay wet/dry with one pedal movement!

The new snapshot function makes it possible to store different states of the same rack, this means you can change as many parameters of the current preset as you like with the push of one button. Imagine laying down different snapshots of one song for chorus, verse or bridge - with complete ease and efficiency…
