can absynth 6 connect directly to mk3 keyboards without the need for komplete kontrol software? in the same way that kontakt 8 does?
thanks
Doubtful. I would think if it was a thing - it would have been a top 5 item listed on the website with todays' debut for sure.

Not at this time.
Direct Connection is so far only available in KK3, K7 and K8.
We may bring it to more software, but are first working on bringing more hardware to the software, if that makes any sense.
thats a shame. ive totally uninstalled komplete kontrol software as its just unusable for me since 2.9.
please make all ni instruments direct connect, in all honesty i dont use them, the preset system is just not as good as something like a simple folder structure that i can navigate with qwerty keys like uhe/cherry audio/synapse…….
id like to be able to use my investment (mk3) but im not going anywhere near kk3.x software sorry. i would of upgraded if absynth 6 was direct connect and id probably use massive x if that was direct connect. until then im just going to stick with other brands
It does, but a quite obscure one 😂
Are you referring to an enlargement of the pool of third party HW working with KK or to HW working with Absynth (and if, how?)?
The other brands are not Direct Connect either? Don't quite understand that point.
We have at least added better VST integration in various DAWs as of the latest Kontrol S MK3 firmware update. That should help somewhat, albeit not as good as Direct Connect.
We will likely never make all NI instruments Direct Connect - this would also imply a lot of work on legacy titles. But certainly it remains possible we'll do this for a few newer titles.
Larger pool with deeper integrations.
yes, but i can use the qwerty keyboard to flick thru presets in a simple drag and drop folder structure using other brands. it is not possible to browse presets in ni instruments just by pressing up/down on a qwerty keyboard. this is way quicker than using komplete kontrol
i dont want to have to scroll and browse thru presets that belong to other instruments while using one specific synth. it slows down the process which makes it counter productive for me. this is why i would like direct connect with my mk3 so i can use the next/previous buttons without havinbg to first filter out all other presets
