The keyboard has also been enhanced with a Fatar key bed! Using NKS protocol, you can be sure of a seamless integration of software and hardware. This keyboard also has two large colour displays for your plugins. The basic elements of a USB/MIDI keyboard in this class such as connections for a sustain and expression pedal, and USB MIDI and DIN MIDI functionality are all on board. Native Instruments have shows us that even a product this awesome can be improved with their new-and-improved Komplete Kontrol S49 MK2 USB/MIDI keyboard! In sum, for this price it's an affordable piano that can do almost all that I need, so I'm happy with it and I hope it lasts so many years.When the Komplete Kontrol S61 comprehensive USB/MIDI keyboard came out, it had an extremely important feature that had never been seen before: LED lights above the keys that corresponded to a colour-coded system in the Kontakt software so you could keep track of where your key switches were at all times. I think this type of units can have more controls, as it has two big empty frames on each side, but it happens the same with the S series. No aftertouch, which in 2019 should be a standard in this kind of hardware. The little screen is useful but it should be at least bigger or similar to the layout of the S series MK1. The clicking sound from the buttons is really loud, really. It's quite heavy and bulky, so you need a lot of space for it. Also, I need no mapping at all, I love plug and play things without messing around with configuration files and so on :)

I can control some basic features from Studio One which is what I was looking for. Another good point are all transportation buttons that it has, useful for DAW and also for the Komplete Kontrol plugin. It reminds me the feeling of a real piano, it's no so plasticky and looks like a premium unit. The good point are the keys and seamless integration with all Komplete products I have. I bought this piano after comparing all 61 keys midi controllers, and this seems to be the one with the best integration in Studio One.
