Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S88 Controller Keyboard Overview
The Native Instrumnets Komplete Kontrol S88 controller keyboard is the latest addition to the Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol series. The NI Komplete Kontrol S88 features a fully weighted, 88 note, professional grade hammer action keyboard. Komplete Kontrol S88 is a Komplete instrument, meaning it's the perfect hardware to complement Komplete software. The intuitive controls, powerful hands on functionality, and pro grade keyboard make this a serious choice for any individual or studio using Komplete. Prior to the release of the Komplete controllers, harnessing the power of Komplete software from a regular controller keyboard was impossible. But now you can control any parameter, from any instrument, with Komplete hands on control.
