BROWSE BETTER AND FASTER THAN EVER
Hear instant audio previews as you scroll through thousands of patches, from hundreds of instruments, from over 75 developers.
EVERYTHING IS PRE-MAPPED
Start playing and tweaking instantly – just load an instrument or an effect and go. Each parameter is pre-mapped to the hardware, with the mappings designed by the developers themselves.
PLAY COMPLEX MUSIC EASILY
The KOMPLETE KONTROL software lets you play intricate chord progressions and arpeggios, even without musical training, with single finger control. NKS helps bring out the music in you.
DEEPER CONTROL
The Light Guide on the KOMPLETE KONTROL S-Series keyboards lets you see – and control – a range of deeper settings including articulations, keyswitches, and more.
ACCESSIBILITY
NKS is designed with the visually-impaired in mind. The KOMPLETE KONTROL software offers speech output via the computer, providing key information about the instrument currently loaded, and during browsing. This makes all NKS plug-ins more accessible.
