I fired up my keyboard and reaper as well as midi-ox to check this. The keyboard shows up as 3 different devices:
1.Komplete Kontrol: only notes for music sent over midi
2.Komplete Kontrol DAW: transport controls sent over midi but not the shift or other buttons
3.Komplete Kontrol EXT: No data
Also, holding shift didn't modify the midi data being sent on any device.
I know the keyboard uses other protocols to connect to certain DAWs and it could just be that the shift button is not MIDI at all. I also assume the EXT device is for integration with certain other DAWs (either to send and/or receive data).
Is there something like MIDI OX for OSC data? I have a feeling it uses OSC to talk to Logic (where it has 100% full integration)
To get everything working in reaper we are instructed to setup the first device as MIDI, and the DAW device as a Mackie Control Unit.
EDIT:
while googling around to try and find whether komplete kontrol uses OSC at all, I found this

Seems like someone trying to get better integration with garage band by tapping into OSC messages. (I could be mistaken)
