Kontrol MK3 Parameter Labels

The parameter labels on the Kontrol MK3 keyboard are a huge step backwards from the MK2. The keyboard displays only 6-8 characters from what I can tell and uses the first two letters or random letters to fill up the capacity. It results in gibberish on plug-ins like FM8. For example, stereo delay time shows would display as stdeti. I don’t get it. The MK2 keyboard showed the entire words. Things like this make it very difficult to do anything without constantly referencing the computer. I am about to shelve this thing for good.

    We're going to adjust the font size in a forthcoming update, so the truncation happens less readily.

    Skeptical since 6 months post release with no meaningful updates. Pretty clear staffing isn’t there to correct any of the deficiencies of this device.

    Staffing is very much here.

    • Komplete Kontrol 3: updated 7 times since October 1st
    • Kontrol S MK3: updated 2 times since October 1st

    It just so happens that a lot of our current focus is developing some large monolithic updates that take time and will land in 1-2 big drops (e.g. MIDI Templates, Play Assist, Accessibility, as well as visual and Pedal Settings improvements).
