With the KONTROL S88 MK3Native Instruments presents the third generation of the popular USB master keyboard controller. The exterior of version 3 impresses with its elegant design with metal and glass elements. The large, high-resolution colour display with glass surface is framed by new key islands that form a continuous, dust-proof user interface and are grouped according to function, as well as eight encoders and a 2-axis encoder. To the left of the keyboard are the two handwheels for pitch band and modulation made of anodised aluminium with RGB lighting. The tried-and-tested Light Guide above the keyboard displays sounds, split zones, switches, scales and other information.
The KONTROL S88 MK3 offers perfect software integration with next-generation NKS technology and ensures seamless interaction of all instruments, effects and sounds from the Kontakt world. Thanks to the 88-key Fatar keyboard with hammer action , very sensitive playing at piano level is guaranteed. The highlight of the keyboard is the polyphonic aftertouch, which reacts to even light pressure and enables nuanced control of the assigned parameters. Dedicated transport buttons for controlling the DAW round off the possibilities of this USB DAW controller.
On the connection side, the master keyboard has a lot to offer. Power is supplied and communication with the DAW takes place via USB-C. A second USB-C connection is intended for a USB power supply to operate the controller with MIDI equipment without a computer. Inputs and outputs for MIDI allow the integration of one or more MIDI devices. Four pedal inputs for sustain, expression and two buttons further expand the control options.
The manufacturer provides a comprehensive download software package free of charge with the KONTROL S88 MK3. Please refer to the Native Instruments homepage for information on changes and compatibility with Windows and Mac systems and DAWs.
With the latest update, this device offers NKS support: control over 2000 NKS instruments and effects. It allows you to load, customise and manage presets with physical controls. Help with controller integration can be found on the Native Instruments website.
A voucher code for Native Instruments Komplete 15 Select is also included. After registering the hardware, one of three available Select variants (Beats - Band - Electronic) can be selected. Customers who already own a compatible device will also receive the voucher for Komplete 15 Select (the hardware may still need to be registered in order to receive the voucher code).
Download and activation require an internet connection and a graphics card that supports Direct 3D 11.1 or later. After installation and activation, the product can also be used offline, i.e. without an internet connection.
Native Instruments KONTROL S88 MK3Very pleased with keyboard but very disappointed with delivery I know it was over the Christmas holidays but it took 14 days to come and it was in stock all warehousing is now in Germany which I didn’t know they say 3 to 5 days for delivery. Also when it did come box had lots of tears in box not good for a very expensive keyboard luckily no damage to keyboard but it’s obviously been chucked about so not very pleased with music store
