Why do I have to choose my controller everytime I switch tracks in KONTAKT 8/CUBASE???

Rick Balentine

I have a 4500+ Orch template, and now everytime I switch to a track in CUBASE my KONTROL s88 MK3 shows "Default MIDI Template" instead of all the controller options for that plug in UNLESS I go to FILE/CONTROLLER and re-choose K88. This is so annoying! Anybody have a work around for this please????

Thank you!

That sounds like the autofocus of the keyboard is not working, since you mention Cubase, please give this a try: My Komplete Kontrol Keyboard's Autofocus Function Does Not Work in Cubase

Thank you for your reply!

I'm on Windows 11 and I'm using a Kontrol s88 mk3.

Is everything functional in Komplete Kontrol or Kontakt in standalone regarding the keyboard integration?

Are Ableton, Komplete Kontrol, Kontakt, FL Studio running as admin? How to Run a Program as an Administrator

Can you describe step by step how the problem manifests? Anything particular, like duplicating tracks, etc..

When I launch Kontakt 7, 8, and Komplete Kontrol in standalone mode, everything works perfectly. The problem is, when I want to use them in a DAW, Kontakt 7 and 8 no longer detect my Kontrol s88 MK3 automatically. When I go to the options or change MIDI tracks, the Kontrol s88 MK3 loses the connection to Kontakt in the DAW, and I have to go to the Kontakt settings each time to reselected it. I feel like this started for me after the latest update to Kontakt 8.3.0. I'm not sure...

sorry for the late reply
