So I was VERY excited to pick up my new Kontrol-S series keyboard, early this week to now seriously contemplating sending it back, because it's NOT compatible with my Maschine MK3. R U SERIOUS!!! why is that? hopefully there's some type of software or firmware update.

NI please explain.


Thanks

    There was a comment about this in the "Kontrol 2024 outlook" thread here - Kontrol 2024 outlook: what was, what now, what next? — Community (native-instruments.com)

    The relevant comment was

    • Maschine integration. Since very few users used this and it was confusing to everyone else, it wasn’t something we were willing to prioritize at the expense of other features. Basic Transport integration may return at some point, but not to the prior depth.

    Sooooo how can it truly be KOMPLETE KONTROL! if your Native Instruments software & hardware products that us users have don't really control and talk to each other? That should be the basics I would think, my kontrol keyboard should control Maschine 1st before Logic, Pro tools, etc.

    I think it wasn't prioritised because the feature usage information passed back to NI showed it wasn't being used. I'd suggest adding a comment to the K2024 outlook thread I linked above if it's something you'd like adding back.
