This includes 14 premium instruments as well as some effects. The S49 Mk 2, however, which was released 2 years after the first one, does in fact come with Komplete 12 Select software.
It is important to consider that the Mk 1 version of the Komplete Kontrol S49 does not come with Native Instruments’ Komplete software package. They also light up when they are used and the lights change depending on the amount of pitch bending or modulation. The only drawback is that there’s less tactile feedback when using them compared to a physical wheel. This feature can take some getting used to, but they work just as well as a physical pitch wheel. Instead of modulation and pitch wheels, the S49 features touch strips. By using the onboard controls, you can adjust these parameters on the fly. It gives you the option to choose various parameters such as rhythm, sequence style, gate, and swing. This is incredibly comprehensive for a MIDI controller and you don’t find these functions very often in these sorts of products. The S49 also features an inbuilt arpeggiator with tonnes of different parameters that you can scroll through on the screen. Again, these controls make recording much quicker and easier, allowing you to do everything you need without having to click around within your DAW. On the left side of the interface, you have various controls for your DAW, such as record, play, stop, fast-forward, and rewind. This is perfect for those who value their workflow and need to produce quickly. This is the main benefit of using the S49 rather than other MIDI controllers, as it’s far quicker and easier than finding sounds and presets within your DAW. This simple interface makes finding differents sounds and presets quick and easy. Once a sound has been selected, you can use up and down arrow keys to select different presets. Once the wheel is pressed, this acts as a left mouse click and selects the part of the library that you’re hovering over. For example, the scrolling wheel can be used to scroll through your Komplete library. Native Instruments have done a good job at using as few buttons as possible to control a wide range of things.
