Korg Keystage 49 and NKS Implementation

Phillippeo

Hi All,

Does anyone know how to get parameters to show on the Korg Keystage 49 using Komplete Kontrol? I have installed and followed the instructions (most likely incorrectly) and cannot get the OLED screens to show the parameters when using Komplete Kontrol.

Thanks in advance..

If you followed those instructions (to the letter!) it should work:

Scroll down until you find your Korg device and read carefully.

However, from what i read there, you can only map the 8 knobs to adjust eight instrument or effect parameters. I can't see anything else.

I didn't think that any of these 'integrations' had parameter name or value support, even the demonstrations on the NI youtube channel just show MIDI CC values on the screen.

So don't get your hopes up, I don't know for sure with the Keystage, but it's probably just like the other third party devices i'm afraid and is just vanilla MIDI CC mapping and nothing that you couldn't do before. Hope i'm wrong though.

It does according to a video I just watched: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgWhI9IEQbk

I think that's through the Korg's own DAW integration (Ableton perhaps?) using VST automation parameters. As the video is from 2023.

The NI 'Integration' seems to be only vanilla MIDI CC. As per their own video, Progress eh? 🤐
