In software terms, you can do almost everything you can do with the S series. As with the S series, the physical controls are designed to tie into the Komplete Kontrol software and also your DAW and any NKS-compatible plug-ins you may be running. There are traditional mod and pitch bend wheels, as well as octave buttons at the bottom left corner of the front panel. The semi-weighted keys are full size, and well suited to most kinds of playing you’re ever likely to do on a 25 or 49-key instrument. The company has always tiered its hardware - from more entry level all the way to big and professional, but this is the first time it has really ventured into price brackets that seem designed to tempt ordinary consumers - by which I mean people not necessarily already in the music technology world. One important theme of NI’s recent mega-update of its products was that for the first time it included more affordable models of its hardware controllers. As a piano player I have a stage piano that never leaves the house, several performance keyboards too large for my studio desk and a Komplete Kontrol S61 which is great, but as I find myself working on the move more and more, I have begun to want a super-portable MIDI keyboard with the functionality of the Komplete Kontrol system. The larger models just space their controls out more. If you have made any change to a library (e.g., added/removed files), select it in the list and click the Rescan button to rescan that library.Sometimes as reviewers we are lucky enough to be able to request specific models for review - so why the smallest, 25-key model, you may ask? Well, in terms of their functionality, all three models - 24, 49 and 61-keys - are identical, save for the number of keys. Files will only be removed from the Komplete Kontrol Browser, not from your hard disk. See below for more details.Ĭlick Remove to remove the selected user library. Scan user content for changes at start-upĮnabled by default, this option automatically detects any new added user content when starting Komplete Kontrol.Ĭlick Add to manually add directories to the user library. The alias of the default user folder, Native Instruments User Directory, cannot be edited - this is the location where all your user files will be stored by default. After adding a location (see Add below), click the field in the new row and in the Alias column to set the alias for that new location. Defining aliases for your user folders is not mandatory, but it can be of great help when working on different computers (see description below). If you have moved any library to another location on your computer, click the folder icon on the left of that library and select its new path. Click the fields in the right column to select the desired outputs via a drop-down menu. Under Routings, you will be presented with a list of the 16 stereo outputs from Komplete Kontrol: In the right column, you can assign them to the outputs of your audio interface. This shows the delays introduced by the current Buffer Size setting. Click this button to open the settings window of the selected ASIO driver. ![]() Windows: When using an ASIO driver, the Audio page shows an ASIO Config button instead of the Buffer Size slider. It is recommended to find the lowest value that does not cause clicks and pops even when playing more demanding Products. Larger values decrease the CPU load but introduce a larger latency (a small delay between hitting a pad and hearing it). Lower values result in a more immediate playing response but increase the CPU load, and may result in audible clicks and pops. MacOS: This slider allows you to adjust the buffer size of your audio interface in samples. Please restart Komplete Kontrol after changing the sample rate. This displays the selected sample rate of your audio interface. This shows you whether your audio interface is currently running. This allows you to choose from the available devices if you have connected more than one audio interface.
