Explore and sample all your KOMPLETE presets and hundreds of NKS plug-ins, transform your sound, and control your favorite DAW from the ultimate studio rig.
MORE VISUAL
With two high-resolution color displays, it's easy to explore sounds and listen to examples, adjust controls, and mix and edit your projects. And all from the controller itself.
MORE INTUITIVE
Immerse yourself in your production process thanks to its improved design with special function buttons and a new push-button encoder wheel.
MORE EXPRESSIVE
KOMPLETE KONTROL S88 now has ergonomic pitch and modulation wheels, plus a touch strip for more creative possibilities.

Mix, edit and more in MASCHINE, Logic Pro X, Ableton Live, Cubase, Nuendo and GarageBand.
PERFECTED PIANO TOUCH
A keyboard with better touch plays better. Express yourself with 88 fully weighted Fatar keys, each with an advanced hammer mechanism, Smart Spring technology and memory foam cushioning, for a real piano feel.
VISUALIZE WHAT YOU NEED, WHEN YOU NEED IT
S88 puts everything you need to know at your fingertips: View essential sound and project information on two high-resolution color screens; Find out everything that's happening with the backlit buttons that change color and intensity; and locate sounds, keyboard zones, modifier keys, scales and more with the Light Guide.
FIND YOUR SOUNDS EARLIER
Finding the perfect sound in a huge library can be difficult, if not tedious. Now you can find exactly what you're looking for across all KOMPLETE and Native Kontrol Standard (NKS) instruments thanks to a simple and intuitive tagging system, right from the controller. Plus, you can listen to examples of each sound as you explore them, without needing to load them.
Does your soundtrack need epic strings? Select Bowed Strings > String Ensemble > Sample-based, move through the presets and choose the one that fits best. And if you really like the sound of it, bookmark it for instant access next time.

PREASSIGNED AND READY TO PLAY
All of your KOMPLETE and NKS instruments and effects have been pre-mapped to the KOMPLETE KONTROL hardware by the people who know them best: the instrument designers themselves. Essential parameters, such as envelope controls and filter cutoff frequencies, are loaded instantly and presented on the two color displays, intuitively divided into pages. This means you can see exactly what you're adjusting in real time, whether it's a value in kHz, dB or BPM.
