This section describes general concepts related to the Browser.
7.1.1 Product Types: Instrument and Effect
Although the Library contains Instruments and Effects, it is not possible to browse for these
two Product Types at the same time. Depending on the selected Plug-in slot the Product Type
in the Browser switches either to “Instrument” or “Effect”:
▪ When you start KOMPLETE KONTROL or when you select the first Plug-in Slot in the Plug-
in chain, the Product Type is set to Instrument which is reflected by the respective icon in
the Browser.
▪ Consequently, when you select any other Plug-in slot, the Product Type is set to Effect
which is reflected by the respective icon in the Browser.
These icons also appear in the display on the KOMPLETE KONTROL keyboard.
For more information on the Plug-in chain and usage, refer to ↑4.5, Plug-in Chain Panel re-
spectively ↑8, Working with Effects.
