    I'm having trouble hooking up my new Kontrol S61 keyboard up to my Mac, running Mavericks. I do not have Komplete or Komplete Kontrol installed.

    Downloaded Controller Editor, installed
    Keyboard is plugged into power
    Keyboard says CONNECT COMPUTER
    Hooked up keyboard via USB into a USB2.0 hub, going into the MacBook Pro
    The keyboard lights up instantly, stays that way for about 12 seconds, then goes back to CONNECT COMPUTER

    Any thoughts?

    On Windows you need the standalone keyboard driver to use it as a pure MIDI keyboard, if Kontrol is not installed. On OSX a standalone driver download doesn't exist and the driver is included in Kontrol only, as far as I know. So without Komplete 9 or 10 you don't get the Kontrol download link and have the observed problem.
