Take control of your software and hardware with the Native Instruments KONTROL S61 MK3, a completely redesigned smart MIDI controller that features a new, updated keyboard designed by Fatar with semiweighted keys, polyphonic aftertouch, and MIDI 2.0 compatibility. The enclosure is made from anodized aluminum and features a high-resolution full-color display, a four-directional push encoder, eight touch-sensitive knobs, ergonomic pitch and modulation wheels, and an assignable touch-sensitive smart strip. Additionally, there are DAW transport controls for direct access to DAW transport functions for most DAW software.

The S61 MK3 is designed to be used with all software- and hardware-based MIDI instruments and features expanded integration with all NKS compatible software, especially KOMPLETE. Browse across all your plugins and easily select an instrument, preview a patch, and load your sound. The updated Light Guide allows you to identify drum cells, key switches, phrases, scales, and chords by way of multicolored lights that shine above the keys. Additionally, the onboard arpeggiator, integrated scale mapping, and single key chords add even more control and inspiration. The KOMPLETE 14 SELECT software is included with 19 premium instruments and effects, 15,000 sounds, eight expansions, and over 40GB of content.
