S61 MK 3 no screen readout of Octave or semi tones?

PhatMonkey

On my MK2 it would tell me which octave and semi tone I was in, on MK3 cant find it at all and as for using the MK3 outside of komplete the only thing on screen is a DEFAUILT MIDI GUI with no other info....??

As we built out the new tech stack, the octave / semitone readout is unfortunately something that didn't make it to the top of the priority list for the initial release. There are always competing priorities, but I would expect this to make its way up there in the not too distant future.

As a multi-platinum producer who passionately utilizes Native Instruments products and has invested thousands of dollars in your equipment, I'm highly disappointed that this feature was unnecessarily removed from the MIDI. Upon purchasing this item with the expectation of an upgrade, I was unaware that it would result in a downgrade, removing some of the essential features. Because this function is vital to my workflow, it has not only cost me time but also money. I am strongly considering returning the product immediately until this issue is resolved.Ridiculous!
