Hello,

I just bought a Komplete Kontrol S49 MK2 keyboard from a local dealer. It will arrive early next week and i want to be ready to plug it!

So, my question is, which one is the correct (or newest) driver for Windows? Because on site is a bit confusing.


1- On Product page --> Downloads, it says MK1 driver

When you download it you get a Komplete_Kontrol_Driver_Setup_Win.exe (version 3.9.2.40).


2- However, on Download --> Drivers page, it has a different driver! An S-Series MK2 Driver 5.0.0 - Windows 7 and above

When you download it you get a Komplete Kontrol MK2 Driver Setup PC.exe (version 5.0.0.57).

So, which one is the correct driver to download and install? Did i missed something here @Jeremy_NI ?


Thanks in advance for your answers! 🙂

    Hello,

    the MK2 driver is the correct one for your MK2 keyboard. The mk1 is obviously an older version of the keyboard and has an older driver with a different version number. For the MK2 you also don't need the controller editor, the MK2 has the editor build into the komplete kontrol software you'll hopefully get with the keyboard.

    Thanks a lot!

    Yet still there is a question... why they have the MK1 driver on the MK2 product page?

    I agree that it would be better to have a mk1 and mk2 page but the page you posted has Komplete Kontrol S Series as a title (no mention of mk1 or mk2)
