I'm glad the NKS template for the MPK4 is available, but I'm confused by the instructions for enabling all of its functions.
After loading the template, the automatic mapping of the knobs works seamlessly. However, I cannot navigate Native Access from the MPK4's pads.
I managed to load an 'Unmodified User Preset' on the MPK4, but now I'm stuck. The provided Native Instruments instructions are unclear. It would be helpful to have setup images, and I haven't found a useful YouTube video yet.
Here are the NI instructions for the MPK 4:
Akai Pro MPK Mini MK4
Configure your Akai MPK Mini MK4 for use with Komplete Kontrol, and learn about the controls you can use on your controller.
Device setup
Follow the steps below to connect your Akai MPK Mini MK4 to Komplete Kontrol.
- Load an unmodified User preset (USER1-13) on your Akai Pro MPK Mini MK4 and press CC to activate MIDI CC mode for the pads.
- Set the MIDI input of the track hosting Komplete Kontrol to the MIDI controller.
- Set record arm active for the track so it receives MIDI.
- Your MIDI controller is now connected to Komplete Kontrol and you can now load the respective configuration template in the software.
