Native Instruments KOMPLETE KONTROL S25

The Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S25 Controller Keyboard is a semi-weighted, 25-note keyboard that opens up the full potential of Komplete. With limitless inspiration in a single plug-in, the S25 helps you search for sounds across all Komplete Instruments using musical tags and keywords. Simply pressing the Browse button and turning the push encoder allows you to select your instrument and choose a sound.

Native Map technology means the user needn't worry about mapping Komplete Instrument parameters. Each Komplete Instrument has been mapped in-house by Native Instruments’ sound designers so that all essential parameter names and values load instantly on the Clear View display, and are grouped into pages. Whether it’s EQ in kHz or the exact frequency of a filter cut-off, you can see exactly what you are editing, directly on the hardware without any setup time.

The Light Guide setting allows you to identify drum cells, key switches, phrases, and more, as well as play every Komplete Instrument in full colour. In the scale mode, the notes in the scale light up on the keyboard, ideal for those who need more practice. In chord or arpeggiator mode, all triggered notes light up when you press a key, so you know what is happening. Two ultra-sensitive touch strips help you deliver dynamic performances that mimic the behaviour of pitch and mod wheels, as well as physical objects such as springs and bouncing balls for modulation curves. The eight controller knobs allow you to adjust parameters including direction, rate, rhythm, patterns, and variations.
