Description

With KOMPLETE KONTROL S-SERIES keyboards, making music becomes a more intuitive and convenient experience. You'll be able to play with perfect expressiveness, explore and preview sounds, tweak settings, sketch out your ideas, then organize and mix your project - all from one piece of equipment that's perfectly integrated into the heart of your studio and stage setup.

THE SENSATIONS OF A REAL PIANO, TOTAL INTEGRATION
KOMPLETE KONTROL S88 combines the best hammer-action keyboard, vivid virtual feedback and seamless integration for your workflow: Explore and preview all your presets from KOMPLETE and hundreds of NKS plug-ins, sculpt your sound and control your sequencer favorite software from the centerpiece of your studio.

IMPROVED PIANO TOUCH
On a keyboard, the better the touch, the better the game. The Fatar keyboard with 88 weighted keys with aftertouch is perfect for expressing yourself fully. Thanks to the advanced hammer action with Smart Spring technology and the memory foam mute, you enjoy a realistic touch worthy of a real piano.

WHAT YOU NEED, WHERE YOU NEED
The S88 puts everything you need in your sights: Essential information about sounds and projects is displayed on two high-resolution color screens. See precisely what's going on thanks to the backlit buttons with variable color and intensity, and locate sounds, keyboard zones, keyswitches, scales, etc. with the Light Guide.

SOUNDS EASIER TO FIND
It's not always easy to find the right sound in a huge library, let alone wasted time. Now you can find exactly what you're looking for among all of your KOMPLETE and Native Kontrol Standard (NKS) instruments using a simple and intuitive tagging system accessible directly from the hardware. You can even preview each sound as you explore the collection, without even having to load the instrument.

Need epic strings for your soundtrack? Select Bowed Strings> String Ensemble> Sample-based, cycle through the presets and choose the one that suits you best. And if you like what you hear, add it to your favorites to find that sound instantly next time.

PRE-ASSIGNED AND READY TO PLAY
All of your KOMPLETE and NKS instruments and effects have been pre-assigned to the controls of KOMPLETE KONTROL keyboards by those who know them best: the instrument developers. Essential settings, such as envelope control and filter cutoff, load instantly and appear on the two color screens, intuitively organized into multiple pages. This means that you will see exactly what you are changing in real time, in kHz as well as in dB or in BPM.

YOUR CREATIVE PROCESS IN ALL SIMPLICITY
Bring your ideas to life right from the keyboard: KOMPLETE KONTROL gives you instant access to transport, mixing, and editing controls in Logic Pro X, Ableton Live, Cubase, Nuendo, and GarageBand, all with visual feedback and indication of the volume level on the integrated keypad screens. And with MIDI in / out, integrating external hardware into your setup is just as easy.

Recently purchased to integrate into my workflow alongside the Maschine MK3, suffice to say this is not an ordinary master keyboard, the feel is excellent, I'm not a conservatory-trained player but as an ordinary keyboard player I find myself trying variations in playing that I couldn't reproduce with a simple synthesizer. Integration with my DAW (Studio One) is complete, recording, loop, Play/Stop, no need to use the mouse and it saves precious minutes at the end of a session. The price is quite a barrier, which caused me many years of consideration, but to be honest, it was worth it.... definitely! I can only recommend this keyboard, sober, efficient, and blends into the decor :) Just a small downside on the finish which feels a bit plastic (compared to its direct competitor) but that's really nitpicking because for the rest, just pleasure! Musically... (Show more)

Quality product: Nothing to complain about the form, the rendering and robustness are on point and the finishes are impeccable. In substance, it's flawless, the FATAR88 does its job very well, the heavy touch is a pleasure for the hands. The MIDI controllers are very intuitive for any regular DAW user, the modwheel is sufficiently smooth without excess for optimal control. The Kontact VSTs are varied and of quality although more focused on "electro". A highly recommended keyboard for professionals or semi-pros with DAW experience, it is by no means a keyboard for a simple pianist in my opinion.

Native instruments is the guarantee itself for this kind of instruments. The feel of the keyboard on the fingers is the one that more than any other brand approaches a piano (the hammer mechanism is really excellent). At the time of purchase it came bundled with Komplete 14 Standard!!!! Pure happiness!!!

Very good master keyboard, easy to handle, very beautiful and a very pleasant touch. The integration with DAW software is very well managed. The handling could have been even more intuitive regarding the internal use of certain software, but that's nitpicking.

Excellent keyboard. Very good touch. Good sensitivity to dynamics. And a lot of interaction and possibility to play with sounds, especially those standardized "NKS". A real pleasure to play on this instrument.

A high-end equipment with an 88-key keyboard that is undoubtedly among the closest to a piano touch. Very satisfied with my purchase after one week of use.

Very well-made keyboard, pleasant to play. However, I wanted to specify here that if you want to use the scale/chord arpeggiator options, they don't seem to work outside the Komplete Kontrol sphere on Reason. Unlike other keyboards from other brands that manage these options via the hardware layer. Otherwise, the keyboard is really nice and beautiful.
