And for keyboard novices, Easy Mode maps the white keys to whichever scale you like. Activate chord mode to create a rich progression by playing single keys, then switch on the arpeggiator and turn it into an expressive musical performance. With Smart Play, you never need to worry about hitting a wrong note – just pick a scale and play. That means you can see exactly what you’re adjusting in real-time – whether it’s in kHz, dB, or BPM.

Essential parameters like envelope controls and filter cutoffs are instantly displayed on the OLED display as you touch the corresponding knob. Pre-Mapped and Ready to PlayĪll of your KOMPLETE and NKS instruments and effects are pre-mapped to the KOMPLETE KONTROL hardware by the people who know them best, the instrument designers themselves. Use the encoders and OLED display to select SYNTH > BASS > SUB BASS, then listen through the presets and load up the right one for your track. What’s more, you can hear a preview of each sound as you browse, without loading individual instruments. With KOMPLETE KONTROL, however, all of your KOMPLETE and NKS presets are intuitively tagged and organized, so finding the right one is fast and easy.

With hundreds of presets to choose from, finding the right sound can be a chore. Complete with four premium instruments plus MASCHINE Essentials, A-Series keyboards come with everything you need to bring your ideas to life. Find the right sound, make it your own, perform, and capture the results, all from a responsive, semi-weighted keyboard. Music-making is at its best when it’s fast, fun, and physical. The Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol A25 25-Key Keyboard Controller is a smart, Streamlined Keyboard Controller. Again together they are just amazing combo if you have audio interface.Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol A25 25-Key Keyboard Controller On other hand i can also use a25 with (or without) maschine micro mk3 as quite portable "on go" setup. Just saying although this midi keyboard made great and works great, feel of semi-weighted keyboard is far not the same as weighted one (i've heard that even s88 provides some annoying plastic clicking sound when you play on it), and if you're looking for some tool to play on i'd highly recommend to go with some decent yamaha/kawai with 88 weighted keys setup. You can use 2 midi inputs to play the same instrument: in this case A25 would handle virtual instrument settings via knobs and your big keyboard do the main job, i.e. IMO If you have some decent audio interface and 88 keys setup you're in love with, i'd highly recommend to save some money and go with Mikro MK3 and KK A25 to just control your plugins and DAW easier (vs Maschine MK3 and higher models of A series or S series, except S88 probably).
