Designed for perfect integration with Komplete
When Native Instruments introduced their universal tag-based preset system, the Maschine users here at Sweetwater were absolutely stoked.

Using the Komplete Kontrol S88's intuitive browser controls, not only can you call up any NI instrument in your collection, you can select individual presets, narrowing down your search by descriptive keywords. Once you've loaded your sound, a set of touch-sensitive controls lets you dial in and tweak your tone on the fly via Native Instruments' Native Map, and the Clear View display lets you view the instrument's most important details at a glance.

Advanced control options enhance your workflow
There are several additional functions onboard the Komplete Kontrol S88 MK2 that make playing virtual instruments and writing music even more fun and productive.

And to make controlling your DAW of choice simpler, Native Instruments gave the Komplete Kontrol S88 a full set of transport controls.
