Kontrol S61/S49 MK3 Velocity Response
Is anyone else having issues acclimating to the action of their S61/S49? I'm finding that the black keys have a much hotter velocity output than the white keys, especially when glissing from a black key to a white key with the same finger. I feel this difference and have this issue regardless of the velocity curve setting.…

Why default to 'Default Midi Template'?
Why does the screen on the device default to a ugly looking Default Midi Template screen? why not default to the logo when not connected to a daw or KK? At this price point i would have thought there would be more consideration given to this.

Query about AUTO button on Kontrol S61 MK3
When using Kontrol S61 MK3 with Logic Pro, the AUTO button only changes to automation mode from "Read" to "Touch". Should it open actual "Automation" view also (what we do using "A" key command on typing keyboard)? Or opening "Automation" view needs us to use typing keyboard only? I was expecting AUTO button to do both:…

Komplete M32 potentiometer malfunctions
Hello everyone, the potentiometers on my Komplete M32 are malfunctioning in Cubase. When I create a "Learn CC" session, the potentiometers are recognized, but they only rotate through a very small angle and very jerkily, making them unusable. I tested it with an Alesis V49, and everything works perfectly. This follows…

Komplete Kontrol S61 mk3 rear panel screw size???
Can someone tell me what size screws are the two screws that hold the back jack panel? I purchased mine as new, but on clearance, from Guitar Center, and they stipulated a no-return policy. I checked the unit out, but evidently not rigorously enough. Unbeknownst to me (until I got the unit home), it was lacking the two…

Kontrol MK3 Build Quality
I recently purchased a S49 MK3 and its much more noisy then I had expected. The whole housing creaks and makes crackling noises when I press buttons or keys. I play with a light touch with my velocity curve set to soft 3 and even with that I struggle to hit full velocity so I'm not pressing hard at all. My Maschine MK3…

S-Series Mk3 Firmware Feature Request for MIDI Templates
I would like to request a sort function for the MIDI Templates. Either a manual sort by moving the templates up or down in the list or an alphanumeric sort as a default instead of the current sort by creation date. This way I could give them a meaningful order by a suitable naming convention like "01 xxx"

Hello, I would like to change the CC1 to CC11 (from Modulation to Expression). Is there an easy way to do this? I need to do this for the PLAY VSTi, and other VSTis that are not mapped with KK A25.

Anyone take the plunge and install macOS 26 (Tahoe)?
Anyone using macOS 26 successfully with Komplete Kontrol and Kontact on a Kontrol S series MK3 keyboard? It's annoying that it takes Native Instruments so long to give the green light to new OS installations. Just wondering if anyone on macOS 26 has run into trouble.

What did you pick up? Black Friday / Cyber Monday
I managed to hold off buying a bunch of plugins as I normally do, trying to focus on what I need, rather than want. But, I still picked up two things I wanted - FAW Notes, and a Polyend Synth (for £339 at Thomann!). I am interested to hear what everyone else picked up that they like? And does anyone else compulsively buy…
