Exactly, I’ve been waiting for that kind of KK S49 “Studio” with 4 to 8 faders (or even touchstrip like the Maschine JAM) and the 16 Pads and audio interface of the Maschine mk3… all that combined in a all-in-one keyboard. So we would just have to grab one controller, plug it with just 1 cable and then have everything we need to work on Maschine and your favorite DAW. Now that Akai made the MPC Keys, I hope that NI will be tempted to make a competitive solution by having a KK “Studio”, available in 49, 61, 76 and 88 keys. That would be PERFECT!

@LowHeatBeats Жыл бұрын
S88 should be exactly the same, only the keys differ between different models. Organs usually have 61 keys if I'm not mistaken. So when using a realistic sampled library, any notes outside of the range of the real instrument will not play a sound.

Any keyboard will work with Maschine. The Kontrol MK3 doesn’t gave Maschine integration like the Mk2, so it will work like any regular keyboard, so you won’t be taking full advantage its features if you don’t use a DAW.

Which is what I use. I'd have to use the Maschine VST within my DAW to use it correct? To use features such as scale and chord mode right? Basically, would this be great way to go or do you think or would I just be better off buying a standard MIDI keyboard like an M-Audio Oxygen to pair with Studio One 5 or FL Studio?

No, you don't need to use Maschine as a plugin in your DAW to use the S49, it works with the Komplete Kontrol plugin or even just as a regular MIDI keyboard.
