S88 Mk3 causing unstoppable playback in Logic
Hi. This started today. When I open a Logic Pro 11.2 project it will immediately start to playback and there's no stopping it. And a recording enabled track will start recording. Whilst the keyboard has some control over some Logic functions it wont stop the continuous playback and recording. I’m running 2023 MBP Sequoia…

Feature Request: Touch Strip relative mode (CS-80 style) on S-series MK3
In the current S-series firmware, wherever you touch the touchstrip it sends Midi CC or Pitch bend data that directly corresponds to the location you touched on the strip. That is, if you touch it on the far right you get a value of 127. The control is a "direct" mapping of position input to data output. I would like to…

Light guides
I know this will be a dah moment for me. For instance I have Starlight loaded in Kontakt 8, and this could be any of many instruments. All the LED's are blue but depending on what patch is loaded say all C's and F#'s are green. Many different versions of this example. What is this?

Roland RPU3 comaptible with S88 MK3?
Hi there, Scrolling through many discussions, I have not found a clear answer, whether the 3 pedal unit of Roland RPU3 is compatible with S88 MK3. there are 3 continuous controlling pedals in the RPU3 and I wonder that one of them can be assigned as a sustain with half pedaling.

S Mk3 sustain pedal bug
Does anybody else get this issue where the sustain pedal changes polarity randomly in the S-series Mk3 keyboards? My S88 Mk3 constantly randomly switches Sustain pedal polarity - on a global level. It has nothing to do with the program presets. It will change while I'm on the same patch. It's quite annoying

Is there a way to automatically switch DAW Templates on S-Mk3 per track/open window?
I work in Nuendo, and I'm wondering if there is a way for my S88 Mk3 to automatically change which DAW template I'm using depending on what track I'm selected on? Or even, what open window I'm in — like a plugin. This is for non-Kontakt / non-Kontrol instruments and plugins.

Ableton 12 Device Control S88 MK3
Hi, this question is probably asked frequently but I wanted to be sure about it before deciding on which keyboard to get. (clicked through a few pages and did not find anything recent) I am a Ableton user and heavily rely on its built in effects and instruments and really love how the S88 MK3 lets you control the Mixer and…

For the S series MK3: A small Helper App for modifying .kmt template files
Encouraged by the product team's post, I've recently built a very small helper app (browser based), to give a simple front-end to things that I used to do via editing the .kmt files by hand. Update 2025-04-10: Created a new version of the app: It can: Add or change the image file for a template Create/change template names…

Way to set values to unity?
On the Kontrol Mk3 keyboards, is there a way to set a value to unity easily? Especially in DAW mode. So say I change the volume of something, and I want to bring is back to 0, or - even more useful - I am changing the pan and decide I don't like it, and want to bring it back to center. Is there any simple way to do this?

Komplete Kontrol as an insert plugin
Komplete Kontrol is cool. It still needs work to be more intuitive and less buggy, but it is cool. It's cool how we can put our own VST instruments and plugins in there and create our own custom mappings. And with the integration with the S-Mk3 keyboards, it makes it very fun to be able to adjust parameters of Native and…

Way to change keyboard to send to All Midi Channels in MIDI Mode?
I can't find an option when editing my MIDI templates, in the Keyzones area, to have the keyzone send to all MIDI channels. I am confused on how to set up a project where I have one synth on MIDI channel 1, one synth on MIDI channel 2, but then I want to use a Multi patch in the MIDI Templates to control both at once,…

Easier way/hack to switch between Volume and Pan in DAW mode on Mk3?
So I understand in the DAW mode on the Mark3, when you hold shift and nudge up on the 4D encoder, you can switch from Volume to Pan, and then nudge back down to get back to Volume. However, I'm wondering if there's any other setting or work around to quickly do pan? The nudge thing actually really annoys me, because I…

Kontrol S88 mk3 - Can I use templates to control a Kontakt instance and external synth using a split
A new video on Youtube posted by NI appears to show something I thought was NOT supported. That is, my understanding was that the din output to external synths was only active if the S88 was un-plugged from the host computer. Unfortunately this forum will not allow me to post a link. Very helpful - not. I'll buy an S88…
