    Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S25 Controller Keyboard

    • Not a great controller unless you're heavily invested in the Native Instruments ecosystem
    • Semi-weighted action of the keys are fantastic, which is a lot to say these days with cheap midi controller construction
    • I got this to supplement my studio logic sl88 grand controller for fast synth leads and drums and the long key
    • First off, it is by no means as well mapped out of the box as the Panorama, so you will have to build your own control mappings, but once you have the hang of that, this controller is a joy to use with the Kontact Select software included with the controller
    • A decent controller, though the capabilities of Komplete Kontrol are not impressive at the moment (no layering, in maschine cannot point to a different track that the maschine controller).
