Hi Joey,
The keyboards you refer to are Native Instruments S-series, they come in four
flavours, a 25, 49,61 and 88 key all prefixed with the letter S.
The first three models all have synth action semi-weighted keys, whilst
the 88 key is a fully weighted hammer action piano style affair.
When it comes to accessability and buttons, every model is identical and
has exactly the same buttons and panel layout.
It's actually the Komplete Kontrol software that is providing the
access, Komplete Kontrol is installed and initiated just as you would
any VST synth plugin, however it is acting as a host for other Native
Instruments and compliant third party libraries and plugins - not just
Kontakt.
The Keyboards come with 'Select' which is a watered down 'get you
started' version of Komplete and Komplete Ultimate, Native Instruments
bundle of their leading plugins and libraries, which include Kontakt,
Absynth, FM8, Massive, Battery, Reaktor, Monarch, Spark and several
other synths, as well as Kontakt libraries, sorry I should clarify that
these come in the full Komplete versions not the Select bundle. Select
has the free Kontakt player which enables you to use the included
Kontakt libraries like 'The Gentleman Piano', 'West Africa Liabrary',
Scarby Vintage Organs', 'Retro Machines', you also get Massive and a
couple other synths.
You can buy other NKS (Native Key Standard) libraries from Native
Instruments which will work in the Free Kontakt player, as will some
other third party libraries that use NI's registration system. Other
plugins have been converted and their presets mapped by users so they
can also be used within the Komplete Kontrol software and browsed via
it's database with speech assistance, there is also varying amounts of
edting facilities available dependant upon product. You can for example
now also access Omnisphere 2, Trilian, Keyscape, Air Music Expansions,
Bass Station, V-Station, Korg Legacy, Zebra and several other plugins.
The speech comes from your computer's sapi 5 default voice (on Windows)
and voiceover on Mac.
Hope this helps,
best,
Chris

Hi Guys,
I have been reading about all this accessibility but, never saw the model
number for the Kontact Control
I want to get one, But, I am not sure which model I want. Which keyboard for
Kontact Control is the one that has all the accessibility and what libraries
should I buy with it? I will probably want to investigate buying the 66 key
or 88 key version.
Many thanks,
Joey Stuckey

Subject: [vipaudioaccess] KK transport controls
Guys,
I just received my S 25 and I am integrating it into Reaper, Sonar and
Samplitude. So far, I have not been able to get the transport controls on
the S 25 to respond in any of these DAWs. How do I fix that?
Thanks,
Kevin
