Selling hardware.

If I sell my S61 mk2, do I get to keep my K14 and other software? I know it used to be if you sold the hardware you didn’t, but think that has changed now?

If it came when Select then I think that this section applies, quote :

Selling a hardware / software bundle (like a TRAKTOR KONTROL S3, MASCHINE or KOMPLETE KONTROL keyboard) is as easy as selling a single software product.

You only have to unregister the hardware in your user account and will receive a License Transfer ID that you can pass to the new buyer. After the buyer has imported the License Transfer ID to their own account, they will receive the same software bundle as you, the original owner.

In short, this means that the seller keeps the software that came with the hardware - and the new owner receives it as well. This way, all potential upgrade paths, that are based on that software, stay intact.

Please note that there are a few exceptions with older products. For these products, the software license shows a tag that the license has to be transferred to the new user by our Account Support team.

If your S61 mk2 came together with your K14, yes, the software goes to the buyer too.

If you got it separately (different purchase), then it stays to you.

I originally bought Kontakt 11 years ago and have been updating it each time so I keep that? I think the S61 came with select.

Thanks for your help.
