review native instruments komplete kontrol s61

Anyway, I took the plunge and bought the 49-key model. In my opinion Native Instruments makes great software, but its user friendliness and ease of use I do not consider as its greatest features. So I might as well have bought a simple MIDI controller. Most of all I was afraid that I was buying a potential great product but that when actively using it you run into all kind of problems with incompatible (third party) software. First of all it looked overdone with the two screens and the impressive set of lights and buttons. There were a few things that made me wary about the Komplete Kontrol. Some time ago I started reading things about the Komplete Kontrol so that controller had my attention. Some time ago I ordered a B-stock Arturia Keylab, but the quality was so bad I had to return it (which had obviously nothing to with Arturia, but everything with the music shop that send out a product without proper quality control). My aging Roland controller never had a problem with a simple ‘Hold’ function, but ‘Sustain’ proved to be to difficult. Since some time I felt the need to use a sustain pedal with the MIDI controller I use for recording music.
