Komplete Kontrol S49 Mk2 full and in-depth review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 авг 2024
- This is the deepest review of the new Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S49 Mk2 you'll ever see. In over an hour of action and commentary I unpack all the aspects of this software/hardware combination. Komplete Kontrol, DAW Control, MIDI control, Maschine control, browsing, playing and making music. Please note that an updated version does now include effects plug-in support - I have another video on that!
And please note, it's not an iPad it's a Microsoft Surface Pro running regular desktop software. Komplete Kontrol does not work on an iPad.

I can't believe how this video has only 1.9k likes ATM, I have just bought a S49 MK2 and haven't seen any other review so in depth like this one. A huge thumps up to the amazing work you did here.
😊😊😊😊
you put a lot of work into this and it was very helpful and interesting, i watched to the end, thank you
I like what he does, can always look at him and learn what is going on
Wow, incredible review! I didn't realise how effective this bit of kit could be until this video. The hands-on tweak-ability has really caught my attention - that hardware synth style knob twiddling is something that I've been wanting in a midi keyboard and now finally NI seem to have that aspect down
really well produced, in-depth by a real synth enthusiast. taught me how to use my keyboard, thank you!
Tremendously helpful video. What a lot of great information! I watched all the way to the end!
Best review of anything I've seen reviewed - well doneand more importantly- thank you.
fabulous and very professional review! thank you very much
100% true
thanks for such a comprehensive and honest review. You've really helped me wrap my head around the concept behind komplete kontrol..the good the bad as well as the ugly
One of the best articulated reviews ever - with a special british flavour there.... :)
Thank you. This was excellent and very helpful showcasing some things I missed. I have Maschine 2 and that was an amazing demo.
This is the best overview I've seen. I've ordered the s61 Mk2 and I'm eager to get my hands on it.
Brilliant review. Non-bias, thorough, clear dissection.
Thank you for an honest, clear-cut, helpful review. Cheers!
Wow, now I realise I didn't even scratch the surface of my keyboard! Thanks for this extended tutorial !!
Did a search for Kontrol S61 MK2 review and saw this. I really appreciate this review. Well thought out, profesional and most importantly very useful in helping me decide. Your approach is ..... well PROFESSIONAL. You have earned another subscriber. Im looking forward to going through your other videos.
You are welcome :)
Amazingly in depth and informative review!
Just brought a secondhand S49 MK 2 (trading in my MK 1). Just watched this video before even turning it on. Like reading the manual but a lot more enjoyable. Great video and has someone mentioned goes into a lot more functionality than other videos out there. Great job 👍🤘😊.
Fantastic review. Thank you for taking the time and effort to really get down to the deepest levels of this keyboard & software package and keeping it simple enough for most of us to understand. 10/10 for the review.
Fabulous down to earth review and demonstration.. And best of all someone who's English.. No annoying American accent
I just want to highlight your magnificent review of Komplete kontrol, I think it has been a total explanation and magnificent use reference, you have gone from the emotional, aesthetic to the end of use, for me it has been a tremendous experience to enjoy it.
Thank you very much :)
Great in depth review - enjoyed it very much.
Thank you very much for such an in-depth and detailed review. Great watch + subbed.
After watching a ton of videos, I still cannot decide whether or not to purchase the complete control S 49. Thanks to this video. I now know I want to order one. Thanks for all your help and hard work. I also subscribed because I really appreciate the way you present information and a basic yet non-boring way. Thank you for all your hard work.
Great review! I want to view more of your insightful and inspiring takes on tech now.
+Davis Bloom cool 😃
I only want it because of all those pretty lights!
Thanks for the review!
I get into the choir: what a review!!!!! - thanks for the deep dive
Just ordered one after watching this. Picking up in store now! Be right back!!
Really useful review covering many aspects. Thanks
Thanks for this great video, just bought a used s49 Mk2 and it's incredible. This video is great, the touch screen you use for the tablet is great too!!
Great review, waiting for my s49 to arrive next week! Cheers from Prague
Nice sense of humor. Thanks for the tour.
Thanks for this, really helped me decide to buy:)
Dear Mr Molten. Thank you for the in depth review. I've set my alarm clock til tomorrow early. And will rush down to the nearest musicshop to purchase the little wonder.
Somehow I watched your entire video... never losing interest at all... great job, and great review! Thank you!! :)
Great review. I’ve got Maschine studio and I’ve just bought an s49 mk2 , second hand, can’t wait to try it. One thing the Maschine does have is a great sampler , plus step sequence and you can input music from an iPhone.
great review, just brought the S88 mk2, this video really helped thanks :)
This Video is so good, that I'm reviewing it again a couple of years after I ended up buying it!
Great review. I love your Surface set up!
What a great detailed review. Thank you
This was very helpful! Thank you for the hard work!
Really good review and very helpful. Subscribed
Excellent work it really helps me to understand all of komplete, s49 and machine functionality, compatibility and details¡
It's unique review. Very, very informative. I love to hear about glitches before buy, not only "wow this gear is aaaamazing!" I mean, not only "look this gear can do this or that" but also can it REALLY do this or that in practical way, in real world testing :D
Excellent review. Thank you!! I've had this keyboard for a few weeks now and I'm also disappointed that the Machine software is not offered with it.
Kim buy the new maschine mk3
I am watching this video in 2024 as I finally!!!! manage to buy it yesterday. I know I know we have mk3 but is only what I got at the moment and guess what? I am happy.
damn.....this is probably the most in depth and well done review of any product Ive ever seen. Well done.
Thanks. You convinced me to pull the trigger and order one.
Amazing review, big up!
Great video, very informative and entertaining. Learned a lot and had a good time at it. Completely share your criticism on the scarce use of the display and hope ni resolves this in a firmware update.
Great review!!
Great Video! I Learned A Ton From This! Dig It!
Hi robin absolutely brilliant video.
the Best review for Komplete Kontrol S49 Mk2 , thanks
Such a great review. I liked & subbed. Thanks for taking the time to do this. Thinking of going for the 61 key version (it's all about how much bigger it is overall compared to the 49).
thanks!
GREAT video, just went through step-by-step -- thanks!
Thanks for this! The details are really important, but most reviews gloss over them. Might be worth doing a follow-up for things that have changed since this was recorded. For example, according to the current S-Series mk2 manual, the Pattern view should allow you to select and edit notes in Maschine.
Ugly surprisingly all reviews of this Komplete Kontroll Mk2 i saw were missing information on how this MIDI controller works with non NKS plugins! Thank you for providing this important information!!!
ⰔⰀⰞⰀⰎ̑ⰣⰁⰤⰛⰟⰋⰉⰀⰎⰎⰀⰘⰟ⋅ I found that any libraries I own that are .nki, can be re-saved in Kontankt to be able to use in KK under the User section. Many of my .nki libraries did NOT work out of the box, they failed saying corrupt or whatever, only can be opened in Edit view in KK. Re-saving in Kontakt corrected that issue. Just time consuming when you have many many libraries.
a really great review, thanks alot!
Amazing review! Thanks a lot.
Great review, I watched quite a few videos on the S49 then ordered one, I should receive it tomorrow, then watched your video. Great suggestions for improvements, Native Instrument should take note, a lot of them could be free firmware and Komplete Kontrol updates, although NI might not see it like that.
Thanks again for a a full and unbiased review.
This is sort of what i always thought a combination of hardware and software should be like, combine this with ableton and push, then it would be nearing the goal
THANKS!
This was the video I was searching for the whole day.
I just wanted to know, what Mschine can do, what the keyboard can't and NO ONE just put it this precisely: Nothing.
I found a way now to get the maschine software without buying the hardware, so I will buy this thingy now.
Thanks again!
great review!!
Thank you Robin. superb review of NI's Komplete Kontrol.
Pretty amazing video!! I just ordered the MK2 61 key version to use with my Best Services and East West software loads. However, just diving into this technology. Maybe sell off half of my over 100 analog synths. This thing sound amazing!Thanks for the video, much help!! Rix:)
Brilliant video...really the most well explained online...on this awesome NI / Hardware + software.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
great review, thank you !
Great review!
I just beginning exploring the fascinating world of midi controllers, synthesizers and DAWs.
I learned not only about Komplete Kontrol but about synths and DAWs in general.
It seems to me that Native Instruments have a similar closed digital environment system and business model as Apple.
It has advantages, but disadvantages also...
U are Great 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃☝️🤗 thank you for taking your time to look at this instrumental 😎
Thank you - super helpful!
Brilliant detailed video .
Thanks
Very good review. Have to get one now. :)
Great review. Thank You
You are a truly awesome human being. I'm already sold on Komplete 11 but I think you have easily convenienced me this is worth trashing my worthless AxiomPro61. Thanks:) for a very good review!
Thanks very much.
Nice job. I'm still wanting a controller like this, but with more tactile synth controls, sliders, toggle switches, big bakelite knobs etc
that was great review.
Doctor Who has returned !🍻 Thanks a lot for the fantastic review.
HUGE GRATITUDE for this top work 🏆
Definitely more entertaining & engaging than the pdf manual 🤣😴🙄
Just picked up the S61 and I'm a newbie at VST stuff so the learning curve has been a bit stifling for me but you have helped tremendously 🥰
Nice review.👍
Thanks for the review. Given all the shortcomings this thing has, i probably won't get one.
I am trying to find information on Komplete Kontrol vs. Arturia vs. Nektar options for integrated MIDI controllers and your articulate enthusiastic and engaging video was both informative objectively and demonstrative. I also enjoyed the verve by which you deliver this information. Kudos. And thumbs up on your personal style.
Thanks!
An in-depth review of the new MK3 by you would be highly appreciated 😊 . Luv your reviews.
great video ty
Such a comprehensive and well-informed insight. Best review I've seem for ages about any piece of kit. Your comments are so relevant to workflow. Many thanks.
Great Video!
I bought the MK2 s61 because of this video. It'll be here next week. I'll let you know if I share your enthusiasm after I've had a chance to mess around with it.
still like it 2 years later?
Appreciate the walkthrough.
I am the type of songwriter that is prone to freezing up creatively, when looking at too many knobs. Picture a deer in headlights frozen. With your tips, I realized how intuitive the hardware is, and how seamless it works with Logic Pro X 10.5. I currently use Live instruments, Guitar amp mics, vocal mics, and live drums into a UA apollo x8p, these controllers used with the mobile logic remote are SO IMMENSELY POWERFUL it is beyond words. No mapping, no bullshit, no system crashing. Ive never seen this level of ease when using my old Novation Impuse controller.
Have you done any reviews of the Komplete 49 + Maschine controlling LIVE LOOPS in Logic? That would be cool.
Thank you for such a thorough and informative video! I was having a lot of issues in figuring out how to use Komplete Kontrol with my S49 (in fact it's how I ended up here), but now I'm not confused and can see that it wasn't me at all, that it's just the way things are with this keyboard. At least now I can stop banging my head on it. Thanks again for that, and shame on Native Instruments! I'm really questioning now my investments with these half baked products.
nice video.. just what i wanted know.... shout outs from australia!
Most helpful, thank you.
Very good job 👍
Just wonder is there any changes in software that fixed something...?
Fantastic review. You might just have sold a komplete kontrol bundle to me. haha
41:39 Blade Runner much? Awesome epic-length review!
That was a really great review that showed me everything I wanted to know. I got a really in depth idea of what it would be like to own and use one myself. I get the impression that it's really more of a device for spending endless hours preset surfing and preset tweaking rather than programming your own sounds - even though you can if you want i'm not sure it's a particularly good way to do it with endless pages and so few encoders. That's really what I want to get away from and what bores me about computer music. I liked your suggestions for adding encoder visuals to the screens and using the buttons above the screens to navigate pages. I assumed it would be like that already. The depth maschine integration was interesting to see. I wonder if they have made many improvements since the video was released. As a side note I think the keyboard lights could be useful for learning scales and a few music theory things. Thanks!
This video is almost 3 years old but I was just contemplating ordering this keyboard and found it. Quite literally the most in-depth and useful review I've ever seen, it made me so much more confident in my choice of a keyboard! Amazing job!
Thanks!
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS REVIEW IF YOU ARE BUYING Mk2.....
WoW what an Aamazing Amount of Information covered in Here..... All You need to know about it Design Software and Capabilities along with the Down side.....
Thanks For so much of Hard work... I shall Be buying this very soon now since i know all about it ... GREAT MAN ...
Thanks!
Great review and thank you for your time.
I just purchased the S49 and I was litte bit frustrated because my DAW (Studio One) does not support it, but....I already have the Maschine MK2 and when I opened my Maschine software, the S49 was flawless. So....you're right, you have to have the Maschine Software to get any real use of the Komplete Kontrol controller.
Well...maybe that was NI's plan...LOL...to make people go and buy the Maschine MK3 so they can have the software they need in order to maximize the potential of the board. LOL.....I think they knew it was very limited without the Maschine software.
It works fine as a controller in Studio One, but as a regular controller just like the Axiom or the Akai MPK Series without all the other features and benefits you only get with the Maschine Software.
If you don't have the Maschine Software, don't purchase this board as it's a waste of money if you do. Just an FYI.
Yes, it's a weird connection - i'm not sure Native Instruments have a properly thought out plan for this.
Can you detail more specifically what the Maschine SW adds?
What if you have the novation launchpad pro? Is it worth getting this .
So much better than every other demo / review of this keyboard! Thanks
Thanks!
I have an S61, and I had it a week before I dropped a ton of cash on a mashine, mainly to get the software to use with the S61. It's an awesome combo!
I enjoyed your review, thank you! Whats that stand you use for the surface pro?
It’s called a jamstand
You are a poet, thank you :)
