KOMPLETE offers massive combined savings - you can save up to 91% on the value of the individual products included, making it a no-brainer purchase for the producer who wants the very most bang for their buck. It features some exciting new additions: GUITAR RIG 6 PRO, STRADIVARI VIOLIN, PHARLIGHT, PICKED ACOUSTIC, SUPER 8, and more. With over 115 premium instruments and effects from cutting-edge synths to symphonic sample libraries, 39 Expansions, and over 35,000 sounds, this is the most fully-fledged version of KOMPLETE to date. but I didn't get it, because I like working with my Native instruments on the two screens, and I like the aftertouch.KOMPLETE 13 Ultimate is a complete production suite, packed with legendary synths, sampled instruments, and effects – all the sounds you need for professional productions across any genre or production task. Last week i saw an Mk1 88 key on my local Craigslist for a screaming deal. (In fact, I wanted the 88 key, but couldn't find it in stock anywhere, so I got the 49-key which was the only one in stock. Choose the required control surface (Komplete Kontrol A, or Komplete Kontrol S Mk 2), then select your keyboard's input and. If not, you can manually activate the control surface in Live's Preferences Link MIDI. The knobs and the buttons on the keyboard send out the default MIDI CC messages. Launch Live and the keyboard should be automatically activated and ready for use. The power supply is available in our NI Webshop.

So, despite the fact that the DAW integration in my specific setup is basically non-existent, I STILL love my Mk2. In order to use the KOMPLETE KONTROL MK2 keyboard as stand-alone MIDI controller, you have to disconnect the USB connection from your computer and use a NI Power Supply (18 W). And honestly, if you want to use all of the groovy Native Instruments tools and instruments and sounds, aftertouch is a pretty handy thing to have. scrolling through your NI instruments, tweaking settings for each instrument, and the feel of the knobs and controls is SO GOOD, I really like the Mk2 screens and controls for navigating all that content.įinally, the Mk2 has a different keyboard that also supports aftertouch. Pre-mapped control of KOMPLETE instruments and (NKS) instruments. Ergonomic pitch and mod wheels, plus touch strip for expression control. This may seem like a small thing, but honestly. Pro-grade 61-note Fatar keybed with aftertouch. So if you aren't using Logic on a Mac, the key benefit of the Mk2 is that almost everything you would do with the mouse before, can be done on the keyboard itself.

The transport buttons aren't supported at all, and most of the other DAW-controlling buttons don't work, either.


I use a Mac with Logic, and the difference between the Mk1 and Mk2 is really nothing at all, because most of the fancy features of the Mk2 don't work on the Mac or in Logic. It really depends on which platform and DAW you are going to use it with.
