help Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S25 FAQ

How many keys does the Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S25 have?

The discontinued first-generation S25 has 25 full-size, semi-weighted Fatar keys with aftertouch. It does not have 37 keys.

Does the Komplete Kontrol S25 include drum pads?

No. Its surface focuses on eight touch-sensitive control knobs, transport and navigation buttons, touch strips, and the keyboard, so beat makers need a separate pad controller such as Maschine Mikro.

What is the Light Guide on the S25 used for?

Colored LEDs above the keys identify items such as sample zones, key switches, scales, and split points in compatible Komplete and NKS instruments. This was a defining advantage over the less expensive Komplete Kontrol A25.

Does the old S25 work with current Komplete Kontrol software?

Native Instruments ended software support for first-generation S-Series keyboards in newer Komplete Kontrol releases. Buyers should check NI's legacy compatibility guidance and may need an older software version to retain full browser and integration features.
