Based on industry reviews and the marketing info, I expected this to be a top-notch keyboard with excellent support for NI plug-ins and some support for other plug-ins

The Kontrol is too big and I'd have to keep it somewhere else and get it out when I want to use it+ Much better plugin support

It DID come with a nice suite of plug-ins, all of which were very well supported, but even these were marred by the use of iLok anti-piracy

but i wanted kontact/reactor & stylus rmx to load, but after 2 weeks and poor tech support help, i decide to return it while i had the chance

Komplete Kontrol Advantages:+Slightly better support for NI presets.

n’t bother looking at your stuff, buying it, wasting time installing and then removing it, and returning it
