Does the Komplete Kontrol S61 MK2 Keyboard work with the Maschine 3.0 software?

Hit-Man

When I try to use my Komplete Kontrol S61 MK2 keyboard with the Maschine 3.0 software the KK S61 MK2 goes in to midi mode.

I read complaint from other Komplete Kontrol MK2 uses that are having the same problem.

So… does the Komplete Kontrol MK2 keyboards still work and have tight integration with the Maschine 3.0 software?

@Jeremy_NI Can you help with this problem?

I'm having the same issue with my S25 MK2. Maschine 3.0 recognizes when I play notes, but the keyboard icon doesn't appear in the software nor does it populate in the drop-down menu in the Hardware Settings. It's not receiving any CC information and the Transport/Perform controls don't work. The S25 works perfectly in Maschine 2.0 though. Please help!

there isn’t a s25 mk2 , only the mk1 was 25 keys , which is not supported in m3

Yes it’s meant to work as well as Maschine 2 with the MKII

However the above reports make me wonder if there are some bugs with the integration on some systems?

@ALDREAD Thanks for the clarification! I thought NI discontinued support for the Maschine MK1/MK2 and Maschine Mikro MK1/MK2. I didn’t realize that the S25 would be included with those products.

Yes they do work, at least in Windows.

If, for some reason, you are in Midi mode, then click the PLUG-IN button in your Keyboard.

Yeah , they didn’t mention it in the announcement for the discontinuation of the maschine controllers , but it was mentioned later in another thread , and there’s this guide online now
