Plugins become alive and more musical when you have hands on control, because you can affect things by feel and by ear directly without having to do things by the mouse, which is a poor experience for these things. Lastly - if anyone has any info on NI company status and/or if there will be a MK3 announced soon, please let me know!įor me, not so much a performance perspective, but more a "hands on" thing. I do have NI Komplete but don't use their VIs exclusively. I just want a solid controller that's not fugly, will last a long time, and doesn't have gimmicky features, and integrates smoothly. I don't use fader controllers or pads and don't need my controller to generate sounds. I am mainly purchasing for the keybed quality and german HW engineering and aesthetics. Is that correct? Meaning you could in theory never use the Kontrol wrapper and still use these features to cruise around the interface and control the Logic somewhat?
It appears that the controller has some global navigation features - like toggling between tracks, transport, quantize, etc. Can you use the Komplete wrapper to control non NI VIs? Is there a benefit to that, when you can just use the controller in midi-mode instead?Ĥ. Is that an accurate interpretation? Can you still tweak the plugs on screen?ģ.
It looks like when using NI VIs, you use the Kontrol plugin as a kind of control-wrapper for the NI plugs, which connects all of the native features of the controller to the plugs. Do you find that the midi-mode works as well as any other controller for standard control of VI's?Ģ.
I've been waiting for an MK3 announcement but not hearing anything, so I will probably buy one of these before the year's end.
