There used to be to Init presets - Init, and Init Blank. Now the Blank is gone?
I always use the Init Blank - Massive X preset to begin patching stuff. Now it seems to be gone and I only have the Init with the routing pre-initialized and macros all set up which is incredibly frustrating to have to undo. In the Quickstart tag I only have the four presets shown below. Why is this functionality removed?…

Midi Keyboards with 16 Pads
As much as I prefer Native Instruments over all others, I’ve been troubled with the fact that NI does not have a midi keyboard with pads, preferably 16 pads like Akai, LaunchKey, and everyone else who has that feature, This forces us to use two devices M32 and the Micro MK3 paired together. Either make the M32 larger to…

Firmware Update or DAW Integration Support for Komplete Kontrol S-Series MK2
Hi Native Instruments team, I’m a long-time Komplete Kontrol user and currently use the S61 MK2 with Cubase 14 as my primary DAW. I’ve been really impressed with the new MK3 firmware and deep DAW integration features, especially the improved transport controls, mixer visibility, and parameter feedback. However, it appears…

Feature Request: Assign CCs to 4D Encoder in MIDI Templates
It looks to me such a miss that the 4D Encoder is not configurable (e.g. assign CCs) in MIDI Template mode, as opposed to the great degree of control we get with other hardware elements such as the mod/pitch wheel and the touch strip. So much so, it made wonder whether I'm missing something: is it possible to configure the…

Integrating virtual instruments into Traktor Pro 4
Hello everyone! I’d like to share an idea about integrating external VST synths into Traktor Pro 4. Lately, I’ve been exploring hybrid DJing, and it got me thinking — how cool would it be if Traktor had a dedicated virtual synth deck. For example, a new Deck category alongside Track Deck, Remix Deck, Stem Deck, and Live…

S-Series Mk3 Firmware Feature Request for MIDI Templates
I would like to request a sort function for the MIDI Templates. Either a manual sort by moving the templates up or down in the list or an alphanumeric sort as a default instead of the current sort by creation date.

Make it possible to switch Modulation and Expression placements in GUIs
Annoying thing I see on modern GUIs for NI is the strange misplacement of Mod and Expression controls. These are expressive instruments where it would be nice if they are in the order recommended and used by many users. Many users with composer controls have this order (due to ergonomic benefits): Expression Modulation…

Browser. Maschine MK3 in Traktor Pro 4
i Hello everyone. My idea is to map the Maschine MK3 in Traktor Pro 4 so that you can control it via the browser. The left display serves as a folder tree, and the right one As a song list. Maybe someone has an idea or even a solution. Or Native Instruments would be so kind and could implement it. Regards

Feature Request: 16 hotcues
I often use hot cues as a kind of on-the-fly sample creation tool. I might lay down six hot cues within a very short span and then kind of use them as one would use samples if you were using a sampler like the SP-404 from Roland and so on. In doing this, I exhaust the eight hot cues quickly. And it's a pity, because I've…

Komplete Kontrol UI Tweaks
Hello! I couldn't find any info on a couple items, so I thought I'd ask in the hopes that someone might know something. Has there been any news about Komplete Kontrol's same-page browser returning?

Simple Automation Improvement Update 2025
SO! When will we be getting a basic & "easily implementable" update to automation in Maschine, recently spoken about in the latest thread on this topic back in late 2024, such as being able to effect the shape of the curve (exponential or linear) from point A to B? I believe Kai spoke on this in that thread, and said that…

Kontrol S61/S49 MK3 Velocity Response
Is anyone else having issues acclimating to the action of their S61/S49?

I feel this difference and have this issue regardless of the velocity curve setting.…

Feature Request: Programmable "Fixed Velocity" Button on S-Series MK3
Hey everyone, I was wondering if the following would be technically feasible in any future update; I'd love to be able to change the velocity of that "Fixed Velocity" Button to any other value than 127.

It would be great if you could record your own animation patterns in Massive X player
I'm enjoying playing about with Massive X player, but it would be really good if I could save the various moves I make around the XY pad to the animator. If I recall you used to be able to do this in Molekular, so it's a bit of a downgrade not to be able to do it here. Also it's disappointing that you can't do any XY pad…

Animator Range
Hi, just installed the update with the included animator. It's really great but I thought that a range mapper could be great. say you have an animated curve which you like, but you don't want the full area movement a range mapper for x and y would work to minimize the curve and move it in the animation window. X: 0 - 1 and…

Massive X GUI scaling feature request
hi there; Massive X has become one of my go to synthesizers, sometimes I feel like 100% scaling looks small and on the other hand 125% looks so big. It would be great to have the option of having smaller scales such as 110% in the scaling options in the next updates. Or even free scaling (not having a few predefined…

Electric Sunburst Deluxe should completely cut off when the "muted notes" knob is set to short
Whenever I play a muted articulation in Electric Sunburst Deluxe (Melody), when the note is off, the sample still keeps playing. Even turning the "muted notes decay" knob to "short" can only do so much, but not perfectly. However, Electric Mint and Electric Vintage both can completely stop the muted articulation when the…

Transposing on S61 MK3 - WHY IS IT NOT VISIBLE on the LCD!?!

Can we get full size views for all four effects banks?
We’re all running widescreen displays at this point.

A more modular top bar would be a killer feature. This seems like it could be very…
