Why design UIs that don’t work with your hardware?
Why does NI persist in designing its software so that it can’t be used on their own hardware? The Massive X player relies on an XY pad to really have any effect beyond being a presets browser. And now the neat looking Absynth presets mapper is unusable via NI hardware. As are all of the controls for the Synth. What is the…

Komplete Kontrol S61 mk3 rear panel screw size???
Can someone tell me what size screws are the two screws that hold the back jack panel? I purchased mine as new, but on clearance, from Guitar Center, and they stipulated a no-return policy. I checked the unit out, but evidently not rigorously enough. Unbeknownst to me (until I got the unit home), it was lacking the two…

Kontrol S61/S49 MK3 Velocity Response
Is anyone else having issues acclimating to the action of their S61/S49? I'm finding that the black keys have a much hotter velocity output than the white keys, especially when glissing from a black key to a white key with the same finger. I feel this difference and have this issue regardless of the velocity curve setting.…

How to set preview volumes per-instrument

Are the Komplete Kontrol Series Keyboards the only ones that can seamlessly modify a knob's value?
When using a Komplete Kontrol Series Keyboard, turning one of the 8 knobs immediately modifies the associated value from the value it currently sits at.
