Description

Native Instruments Kontrol S61 MK3

An intelligent controller keyboard available in three sizes, designed to be the centerpiece of any studio. Virtual instruments meet the real world with seamless Kontakt integration and a high-resolution screen. What’s more, polyphonic aftertouch delivers intuitive parameter control across all three models, combined with the S88’s hammer-action keys. All housed in a revised design that looks incredible and is built to last.

Thousands of instruments made real, virtual instruments come to life in a truly immersive experience. Whatever you’re playing, you get deep control and integration via advanced NKS technology. You quickly find sounds with intuitive on-screen navigation, then tweak and play them smoothly thanks to intelligent auto-mapping. This unprecedented direct connection lets you play fully realistic Kontakt instruments, plus thousands of sounds, instruments, and effects from partners, with no breaks in your workflow.

Take expression a step further and instinctively control parameters with the slightest pressure on each individual key. Modulate cutoff, pitch, vibrato, and much more without reaching for an additional control. All three models have an industry-leading keybed, developed in collaboration with Fatar to provide the best polyphonic aftertouch experience possible.
