Greetings All,
I use a Komplete Kontroll S61 mkII with Logic Pro, which is probably a common arrangement with many of you. I've been experiencing an ongoing issue where Logic does not consistently recognize the KK upon startup and I often have to restart Logic two or three times before it locks in. This is specifically regarding the control surface functions (i.e. transport, mixing, muting, plug-in control, instance switching, etc..), though functionality as a MIDI keyboard for note input is unaffected.
Once recognized, KK works fine and all functionality is available. It generally remains stable until I close Logic, but is hit and miss when I restart - sometimes it will connect immediately, but usually I need to restart once or twice (sometimes more) again.
I use an M1 Max Mac Studio and I know that NKS products were not fully compatible under Silicon for a while which necessitated Logic to be run under Rosetta to accommodate it. I thought that might have been the source of the problem. I now have the most recent Komplete Kontrol app purported to be M1 compatible as well as the latest Logic Pro update. The issue persists, however, whether or not I run Logic under Rosetta.
I read about different versions of this problem across the NI keyboard line, including disconnects mid-session but I'm usually fine once I'm connected until I close Logic for whatever reason. I'm curious if anyone among you has found a solution, has heard anything from NI, or if this is just a hopeless quest. It's certainly not a fatal condition but it sure is annoying considering my considerable investment in NI products. Aside from this particular issue, I couldn't be happier with this product.
Thanks in advance for any an all insights!
