The Future of Komplete Kontrol

I'd love to see an 88-key version.
Preferably not a balanced hammer action, since the ones of Akai and Arturia for example can be quite noisy, as if there are little elves inside doing a home redecoration job. I like the feel of the keys on the current models, only there are not enough keys...

 

Akai has an 88 key, I'm sure N.I. will go for that. If it has a great weighted hammer action and aftertouch, I'll buy.

 

Can anyone from N.I. explain what this means? Perhaps this is just a website error? I mean you still do plan on 3rd party support right? ;]

 

Maybe they just want to strech the timeline 'til fall? Even devs have summer holidays

If they cancel VST support, they will make fouls out of themselves, because they officially announced it on German Musikmesse and the music press is still full of reports about that.

 

I'm thinking they will release in summer, just kind of odd they removed it from their website.

 

I think that only 3rd party VSTis will be supported which itself do support NIs new Native Map "standard" technology. Which no 3rd party VST eventually does...

It will be like celemony's ARA technology...

 

I'd like the new controller to have:
XY pad
8 sliders w/ solo/mute/rec
8 knobs
8 buttons (w/ toggle state)
$199

 

If Native does an 88 key, I'd think they would produce a high quality keybed, nice larger color screens alike machine studio. Im thinking the price will be around 1500.00 US

 

Don't forget they have to keep their prices competitive to AKAI's.

 

Is there meanwhile VST Support ?

 

We hope with the next update this summer.

 

I hope the there will be beter support for non NI VSTi's
