Kontakt 7 and mk1 keyboard

ihavelostmykeys

Hi all, my first post here. I have Komplete Kontrol S88mk1 and Komplete 13 Collectors Edition which is more than enough for me. However, since mk3 keyboard was introduced, there’s that option to skip Komplete Kontrol software and have direct integration with Kontakt 7. I currently have Kontakt 6 and am considering upgrade to v7 but I couldn’t find any unambiguous information regarding this functionality. Can someone please confirm whether or not Kontakt 7 integrates with Komplete Kontrol mk1 keyboards the way that Komplete Kontrol software wrapper does (colour lights, auto assign knobs etc)? Or is this only working with mk3 series keyboards?

No, the MK1 doesn't have direct integration with Kontakt, neither does the MK2. You have to go for the MK3 for that.
