FEATURE HEAVY, TRAVEL READY:

Inspiration can happen at any moment, so you need to get your ideas down quickly, wherever you are. KOMPLETE KONTROL M32 is perfect to plug in and play anywhere. Easy to set up, easy to pack away - it doesn't just fit your workflow, but your lifestyle, too. If you want to make tracks on the go, or create a compact studio setup - you now have the perfect keys to fit your needs. Lightweight and road trip ready, where will your music take you?

TAKE THE WORK OUT OF WORKFLOW:

There's no right or wrong path to follow when making music - that's the beauty of it. Whatever works for you, KOMPLETE KONTROL M32 has the tools you need to go from first note to finished track, every step of the way.

FIND SOUNDS FASTER:

The KOMPLETE KONTROL software makes browsing easier by organizing and tagging all your KOMPLETE and NKS instruments and effects, allowing you to hear each preset as you scroll. Thanks to Sounds.com, you now have over a million loops and samples to discover, too. Using KOMPLETE KONTROL, everything is collected into a single browser - making flicking through folders and searching for sounds a thing of the past.

TWEAK TO YOUR TASTE:

You've found that elusive sound, now you want to adjust its parameters to suit your style, straight from your keyboard. You're in luck. You can use the OLED display and touch-sensitive knobs to tweak your sound's essential parameters in real-time. All of your KOMPLETE and NKS instruments and effects are pre-mapped to the KOMPLETE KONTROL hardware by the people who designed them - so you know you're in good hands.

PLAY IT SMART:

Smart Play can help express yourself with techniques that you may not have mastered yet - such as chords, scales, and arpeggios. Map your keyboard to a number of different scales, or play chord progressions and arpeggios easily with single keys. For more experienced producers, Smart Play lets you play around outside of your comfort zone, taking your music in a new direction. Either way, it's a whole lot of fun.

KICK-START YOUR DAW, FROM YOUR KEYS:

Capture your ideas directly from the keyboard with immediate access to play, pause, record, quantize, loop, and more in a number of leading DAWs - keeping your focus on the music, rather than your screen. KOMPLETE KONTROL M32 gives you intuitive control over Logic Pro X, GarageBand, and Ableton Live. Cubase and Nuendo integration coming soon after initial release. Ableton Live 10 Lite is included with the keyboard, so you can start producing right out of the box.

YOUR INCLUDED SOFTWARE:

With more than 6100 sounds and 10 GB of content included, KOMPLETE KONTROL M32 comes with everything you need to start making music. Register your hardware and get dynamic synths, meticulously sampled pianos, pounding drums, powerful production software, and more.

Notes: NI's more affordable Komplete Kontrol A range offers a keenly priced take on the flagship S models. Here in 49-key format, the semi-weighted keybed offers great feel.

Supplier's notes:
Get hands-on with your music:

Music-making is at its best when it's fast, fun, and physical. Find the right sound, make it your own, perform, and capture the results - all from a responsive, semi-weighted keyboard. Complete with four premium instruments plus MASCHINE Essentials, A-Series keyboards come with everything you need to bring your ideas to life.

Find your sounds faster:

With hundreds of presets to choose from, finding the right sound can be a chore. With KOMPLETE KONTROL, however, all of your KOMPLETE and NKS presets are intuitively tagged and organised, so finding the right one is fast and easy. What's more, you can hear a preview of each sound as you browse, without loading individual instruments.

Need some serious low end? Use the encoders and OLED display to select SYNTH > BASS > SUB BASS, then listen through the presets and load up the right one for your track.

Pre-mapped and ready to play:

All of your KOMPLETE and NKS instruments and effects are pre-mapped to the KOMPLETE KONTROL hardware by the people who know them best - the instrument designers themselves. Essential parameters like envelope controls and filter cutoffs are instantly displayed on the OLED display as you touch the corresponding knob. That means you can see exactly what you're adjusting in real time - whether it's in kHz, dB, or BPM.

Perform creatively:

With Smart Play, you never need to worry about hitting a wrong note - just pick a scale and play. Activate chord mode to create a rich progression by playing single keys, then switch on the arpeggiator and turn it into an expressive musical performance. And for keyboard novices, Easy Mode maps the white keys to whichever scale you like.

Capture your ideas:

No matter your setup, A-Series is designed to fit right into your existing workflow, with immediate access to transport, mixing, and editing controls in your favourite DAW. Logic Pro X and GarageBand are currently supported, with advanced integration for Ableton Live, Cubase, and Nuendo coming soon after launch. And if you're just getting started, the included MASCHINE Essentials allows you to capture and arrange your ideas direct from your hardware - no additional software needed.

Instruments included:

With more than 4,500 sounds and 9.7 GB of content included, A-Series keyboards come with everything you need to start making music. Register your hardware and get two powerful synths, two meticulously sampled pianos, and more. Plus with MASCHINE Essentials, you'll have all the tools you need to go from inspiration to finished track.
