CONFIGURE YOUR CONTROLS

Choose what each
switch sends.

Eight footswitches, a toe switch and the integrated expression pedal. Configure each MIDI switch individually: CC, Note or Program Change, with its own channel and output — your Mac, the physical MIDI OUT, or both.

Use momentary or toggle behavior for CC and Note controls. Give the expression pedal its own CC, channel and output. Save your assignments together as a preset.

DYNAMIC & STATIC

Two modes.
The choice is yours.

Step between layouts from the pedal,
or keep all nine switches available for MIDI.

Dynamic and Static are preset modes. Both have an Edit view for configuration and a Live view for playing. Switching views keeps the same preset active.

A new preset.
A new pedalboard.

Reserve one switch for NEXT, with PREV optional, to step through your Dynamic presets. The remaining switches are available for MIDI control.

Put your layouts in set order. One step changes the switch names, MIDI messages, channels and destinations for the next song or setup.

Same pedal. Different assignments.

Try the pedal. Select a switch to trace its route. Use PREV / NEXT to change the whole setup.

Mac routing. The apps share one virtual MIDI source, rather than having a separate output per app. Select “Rig Kontrol 3 MIDI” in each app, then configure its MIDI mappings and channel filters.

Hardware routing. Keep NeuRig MIDI running with the Mac connected by USB. Both sends the same message to Mac and MIDI OUT. A chained synth needs a working MIDI THRU port and its own matching receive channel. Lines show MIDI control, not audio.

CHECK YOUR SETUP

Made for
Rig Kontrol 3.

  • Apple silicon Mac · M1 or newer
  • macOS 13 Ventura or later
  • Rig Kontrol 3 connected to your Mac by USB
  • Software or hardware that accepts MIDI control

Use your existing
audio setup.

NeuRig MIDI does not enable the Rig Kontrol 3 audio inputs or outputs. Use the audio setup provided by your music software, Mac or hardware instrument.

For software, select Rig Kontrol 3 MIDI as the MIDI input. For hardware, connect the RK3’s MIDI OUT to your instrument’s MIDI IN. Keep NeuRig MIDI running on the USB-connected Mac in both cases.

Try the exact combination of Mac, USB connection and receiving software or hardware you plan to use.

How to buy

Already purchased? Open the app’s License window and choose Activate License with the key from your purchase email. Confirm its activation email link on that Mac. Existing activations and saved presets stay in place.

Before you start.

Does choosing a NeuRig preset change my sound?

A NeuRig preset changes your control layout. Sound changes depend on the MIDI assignments and the receiving app or instrument. It is not an audio-effects preset.

Do the app names mean automatic integration?

The Ableton Live, AmpliTube and MainStage layouts shown here are examples. Set up MIDI Learn or mappings in the receiving software; its available actions depend on that software and its license. Third-party software is not included.

Can I control a hardware synth without opening a DAW?

Yes. Send messages through the RK3’s physical MIDI OUT and match the synth’s receive channel and program map. NeuRig MIDI still needs to run on a Mac connected to the RK3 by USB.

When does the trial start, and what happens when it ends?

The seven days start when you choose Start 7-day Trial in NeuRig MIDI. Internet is required to start it. Your presets are kept when it ends; MIDI operation then needs an activated licence. Choose Buy NeuRig MIDI in the app for a separate one-time purchase, or activate an existing licence. The trial never triggers a payment, and reinstalling does not restart it.
