How many devices can be used together?

in Komplete Kontrol

I have seen two devices hooked up together, but I am wondering what the ultimate way to connect devices that will work together. I have Komplete S49 MK2, Maschine MK3, Mikro MK3, Studio and Jam. Is there a way to use at least three of them together? The only videos I have seen show Maschine working with a keyboard or Jam. I have yet to see the studio hooked up to multiple devices. I have all of these devices and want to see if I can make them work with each other. I figure the Jam should work along with the S49 MK2 and Maschine MK3, and that Studio would have to replace Maschine, but it would be interesting to have 3 or 4 devices working together.

    There are limitations on using multiples of the same thing so you can use a Maschine, Jam and KK Keyboard together as each does a different task but you cannot use 2 maschines or 2 komplete kontrol keyboards together since only 1 is programmed to function at a time.

    If you connect a second keyboard it will function only as a basic midi keyboard and will not display any actual data from Maschine on the display. Same if you have 2 KK keyboards, 1 will control the KK keyboard (usually the one you don't want to) and the other will just be midi input with no feedback from KK.

    That is unlikely to ever change.
