Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S61 Mk2

The Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S61 is a smart controller featuring 61 semi-weighted keys, as well as fatar keybed with aftertouch. The MK2 has come in and improved upon the success of the original Komplete Kontrol and works seamlessly with Maschine software and hardware. The MK2 provides two high-resolution colour screens for mixing, sketching ideas or browsing for sounds. The pro-grade fatar keybed provides fluid playability with and authentic feel giving a smooth transition from digital piano to midi controller. An LED lighting guide above each key helps with mapping out chords and drum triggers.

Get hands-on with your production process, thanks to an improved layout with more dedicated function buttons and a new four-directional push encoder.Komplete kontrol s49 and s61 now sport ergonomic pitch and mod wheels, plus a touch strip for expanded creative possibilities. Mix, edit, and more in maschine, logic, ableton live, and garageband. Advanced functionality for cubase and nuendo coming late 2017.

Stay-on key, with notes of the currently selected scale or mode lit on the Light Guide. Activate chord mode to create a progression by playing single keys, then switch on the arpeggiator and turn it into an expressive musical performance. And for keyboard novices, Easy Mode maps the white keys to whichever scale you like, so you’ll never hit a wrong note.

Capture all your ideas, directly from the keyboard itself: KOMPLETE KONTROL gives you immediate access to transport, mixing, and editing controls in Logic Pro X, Ableton Live, and GarageBand, complete with visual feedback and volume metering on the keyboard’s built-in displays. And with MIDI in / out, incorporating outboard gear into your setup is just as simple.
