![]() There’s a Shift button to double up functionality but, of course, you don’t get the glorious Light Guides as found on the full-fat S-Series, those lovely colour LEDs that lit up the keyboard keys. This means you get all the transport, select and navigation areas, plus the eight rotaries. The most incredible thing is that it packs in pretty much all the buttons and rotaries that you get on the more expensive A-Series keyboard, only lacking ‘proper’ pitch and mod wheels, these being replaced with touch strips. It actually feels okay in terms of build – plastic, yes, but also very solid. Both are great if you are carrying the keyboard around and have only a small amount of desktop space, of course, and lighter does not necessarily mean flimsy. It’s only a 32-note keyboard and combined with smaller keys, it covers a very small footprint and is as light as a feather. Unboxing M32, you start to believe that to be the case, as initially you feel like you are unboxing nothing, it’s so light. Whichever way you look at it, some shortcuts must have been made, right? ![]() The big gain for NI has to be that newcomers to music-making will forever worship the company for making their entry-point so cheap, and then upgrade to NI’s vast suite of other software by way of thanks. When we first encountered the M32, I bemoaned the fact that it used to cost newcomers a fortune to get into music production, and now you can do it for very little money. I’d buy that for less than 200 quid.”īut just when you think it couldn’t get any better, along comes the M32, and it’s cheaper still! Just £99 gets you the keyboard, and yes, there’s even a bundle of instruments and other software thrown in not as good as with the A-Series, nor a patch on the full suite of KK software, but it’s still one heck of a lot of hardware and software for just two figures of cash… How? Why? What the heck! ![]() You’d think that £149 for a piece of hardware that controls a bunch of great software is a great price, and I certainly did, concluding that: “You get a full-sized keyboard, a bunch of high-quality plug-ins and a great conversation between the two of them. If you need additional info, please let me know.This Native Kontrol Standard is Native’s way of integrating its ever-cheapening hardware with it and third-party software, with hardware controls automatically assigning themselves to much-used software parameters, thus making the whole software-hardware thing very seamless. My keyboard is a Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S88 MK2, fully up-to-date firmware, etc.Īs a sidenote, the Korg nanoPad which is also correctly shown in the list, also does not work for input in MuseScore.īoth the Komplete Kontrol keyboard and the nanoPad work fine in my DAW and other standalone audio programs. I tried all 3 Komplete Kontrol options, none of them worked. I set the MIDI settings as in the attached picture. Clicking that keyboard of course works fine and produces MuseScore's (very nice, if I may) piano sound. I have the computer keyboard 'p' enabled, but nothing lights up. to no avail - whatever I do, no midi inputs end up in MuseScore. I've tried all tips that I found earlier, rebooting my PC, un- and re-plugging my USB keyboard, making sure it was on before starting MuseScore, toggling the MIDI connect button, etc. I'm leaving my original info below since it may help people going through similar motions as me :-). After I set the MIDI input to 'Komplete Kontrol - 1', shut down MuseScore and restarted Musescore, it worked fine. ![]() I figured that may have screwed things up. Edit: FIXED! Immediately after posting this, I found that the 'DAW' option is used as a control surface and should never be used for MIDI input / output setting.
