New S88 display shows white lines after 1.8.7 firmware update
Has anyone encountered the following issue? I have a new S88. When I first powered it up it displayed its serial number for registration in Native Access, then prompted me to upgrade firmware. I did so with my Mac (Sequoia 15.2, Apple M2) using the KSMK3 Updater 3.24.0. After the update, the display seems is no longer…

Problems with Sustain Pedal on Kontrol S88 MK3
Greets: I have put this off for months now, but I have not been able to get an old M-Audio SP1 pedal to work with my S88 MK3. I should start by stating that when I attempt to plug the pedal to the Sustain port of the keyboard, sometimes the keyboard would power down, sometimes it would restart the keyboard, and sometimes…

S88 mk3 volume too low
Hello Community, I bought a Control s88 mk3 and installed the software on my MAC. I just want to relax and make music on my own and warm up again. Now to my problems: The overall sound volume is somehow not right, the preview in KO blows my ears off, but when I play the selected instrument there is not much sound. To make…

I am in trouble setting up my keyboard
I just bought a kontrol mk3 s88 for learning, but got issues on setting up. In details, I followed the instructions to update the hardware and downloaded the Kontakt 7. After that I started Kontakt 7 and selected an Organ randomly, which was also showed on the monitor of keyboard. However, when I try to play the keyboard,…

Can I use two keyboards with latest Komplete Kontrol?
Hi all, I know the NI Knowledge base says the following about using two keyboards with Komplete Kontrol ————————- Using more than one Kontrol S MK3 keyboard simultaneously on the same computer (e.g. Kontrol MK3 and another Kontrol MK3 / MK2 / A or M keyboard) is not supported. This can lead to inconsistent communication…

How do I fix the scratches on Kontrol S88 MKIII using any tools?
Hi guys, the stand of the my keyboard seems to be very old, making some parts of it sharp which left some scratches on the back of the keyboard when I was trying to move it. Though it was not really a serious problem, every function of the keyboard works normally and no one would care about whether there was some scratch…

Purchased S88 MK3 a month ago. Turns out the inverted Sustain pedal wrong recall is not fixed.
Hello. I was pulling my hair because the pedal randomly inverts on my MK3 on each keyboard boot. I checked with MIDIOx and can confirm it does that. I can never know if the pedal is going to work correctly and often I need to either reboot the keyboard or fix it in the MK3 OS. Is there any ETA for a fix? It is quite an…

S88 for live with different MIDI channels
I've read previous posts and don't see a clear answer to this question. I see in the S88 mk3 manual, in MIDI mode, "The keys send MIDI Note messages and MIDI Key Pressure messages (polyphonic aftertouch) on MIDI channel 1." This would be a replacement of my main controller (PC88) to use live with Apple MainStage. I need to…

Is there an quality control issue with the S88 Mk3
There's so much to like about the S88 Mk3, especially the feel of the keyboard, but I've had two delivered this week and both had faults. The first had poor calibration of a single, mid-range note - whilst seemingly a small issue, a frequently used note that produces higher than expected velocity qualues is a big problem.…

S88MK3 Sends Midi to plugin and DAW, but that's it. No browser. No Daw or transport. Plz halp. 🥲
Okay. So. I started off with a unit (S88 MK3) that didn't want to connect right out of the box. It ended up showing up as a corrupted device connection and wouldn't show up as a named device in device manager, which also meant it wouldn't trigger a firmware update in the MK3Updater. I'm unsure as to whether or not this…

Logic Pro does not save connected S88 MK3 settings in Control Surface Setup
I am curious if anyone else is experiencing this and has found a solution. I've used Komplete Kontrol keyboards for years without issue. My previous one is a S61 MK2 that I still use for synth control. It stays in my control surface setup in Logic settings, and always auto connects when I launch a session with the keyboard…

S88MK3 Midi works but locked out of deeper integration and browser/daw functionality..
Okay. So. I started off with a unit (S88 MK3) that didn't want to connect right out of the box. It ended up showing up as a corrupted driver connection and wouldn't show up as a named device in device manager, which also meant it wouldn't trigger a firmware update in the MK3Updater. After a few hours of staring at the…
