Native Instruments Kontrol S49 MK3

Raising the bar once again, Native Instruments presents the Kontrol S49 MK3: their latest MIDI keyboard controller boasting polyphonic aftertouch, deeper software integration, and a host of new features. In line with the continued prevalence of their Kontakt instrument software in production, composition, and scoring work, Kontrol S49 boasts an enhanced color screen for extensive browsing and tweaking. This is further supplemented with a redesigned approach to the lighting system above the keys, which is handy in displaying split zones, musical scales, switch keys, and more.

Speaking of keys, Native Instruments has partnered with Fatar to introduce polyphonic aftertouch to the Kontrol line—ensuring you have an abundance of ways to impart expressivity into your music. Of course, integration with all the top DAWs remains, offering remote transport control and other features to keep the music rolling at the keyboard, not at your computer. Once again, Native Instruments proves their controllers are among the cream of the crop—adding the Kontrol S49 to your studio won't leave you disappointed.
