No Volume/Pan/Tune for Kontakt 8 Instruments in KK Mk3 Control menus?

I'm loading Kontakt instruments, stacking them…. and noticing I can't do basic things like mute/adjust volume/pan… am I not locating these items? It's not just in Kontakt, it's every instrument… I'm digging around for the most basic thing…. volume.

Some of these instruments are VERY loud and some are VERY low…. I have to turn on the screen and dig through menus for overly basic things, unless I'm missing something… which I hope I am, lol…

    Are you doing this in Kontakt in standalone or in a DAW? Which DAW? Please note that not all DAWs have host integration, allowing to navigate through the DAW, access the DAW mixer, etc….

    You mention other instruments, only Kontakt or Komplete Kontrol have integration with the MK3 keyboard.

    I'm using Ableton. This isn't even a DAW question. No matter where you load instruments… Maschine, KK, etc… the mapped controls don't include BASIC things like VOLUME. It's kind of insane…..

    When I have an instrument with lower volume samples… I have to turn on the screen, remix to the old view… just to adjust the volume!!??? That should be the FIRST PARAMETER mapped on EVERY INSTRUMENT. Am I going crazy? lol…
