Komplete Kontrol S88 Mk2

Designed for perfect integration with Komplete

Now they've extended the same capabilities with their Komplete Kontrol S Series Mk2 keyboards. Using the Komplete Kontrol S88's intuitive browser controls, not only can you call up any NI instrument in your collection, but you can also select individual presets, narrowing down your search by descriptive keywords.
