The New Era of MIDI Controllers: Exploring the Kontrol S-series MK3 by Native Instruments

Описание: Welcome to our in-depth look at the latest innovation in MIDI controllers — the Kontrol S-Series MK3 from Native Instruments. In this video, we’re breaking down the key updates that make this MIDI keyboard a game changer in music production.

First, we delve into the enhanced expressiveness brought by the polyphonic aftertouch feature, offering unprecedented control over musical nuances directly from the keyboard. We then explore the direct Kontakt integration, which simplifies and speeds up the workflow, allowing you to access a world of sounds with ease.

We also discuss deeper integration with DAWs, which empowers you to perform various production tasks directly from the controller, keeping your focus on the music rather than the computer screen. The video also highlights the intelligent Light Guide system, which visually aids your performance with switches, key zones, and scales.

The Kontrol S MK3 comes in three sizes, each tailored to different needs and preferences: the S49 and S61 come with semi-weighted keys, and the S88 has fully weighted hammer-action keys, providing a true piano feel. The keyboard’s connectivity options are vast, including USB-C, MIDI in/out, and four pedal inputs enhancing its versatility in studio setups.

Lastly, we showcase the premium design of the MK3, which features a large glass screen, touch-sensitive encoders and mod wheels, and redesigned tactile buttons, all built with high-quality materials for a superior experience.
