Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol A61 - Get Hands-On

This keyboard works very intuitively with NI plugins. The pre-mapped control allows for sounds to be customised as you get creative. Let's start from the left of the keyboard and work our way across.
Pitch and Mod Wheels
In terms of modulation, this keyboard allows for the manipulation of pitch and 'modulation' in real-time. Pitch bends can be added on the fly and with ease.
DAW Control
The A61 gives you the ability to control aspects of your DAW at the touch of a button. You can play/pause, record, set tempo, adjust levels, quantize notes and undo/redo with dedicated rubber buttons.
OLED at a Glance
Sometimes you need to see what you are doing with a bit of visual aid. Everything you need is displayed on the small OLED screen. This includes sound browsing, parameters being used and even more, all in real-time.
USB Power
Despite its size, this keyboard only needs your USB port on your laptop for power. No need for mains. This enhances the portability of the unit so you can get creative no matter where you are!
Pre-Mapped
There are eight knobs at the top of the unit, all of which are sensitive to the touch. Your Komplete plugins work beautifully with these as they were designed to do so.
Quick Navigation
For quick searching and selection, the push encoder on the right of the keyboard allows you to journey through all manner of options!
