Freelance Sound Labs...if you haven't heard...this guy devotes most of his time to creating third party NKS compatibility (Komplete & Maschine) for a very broad range of unsupported VSTs - and it works like a charm. To date, I can load: Omnisphere 2, most of UVI like augmented orchestra, Quadra, Falcon (plus expansions), Steinberg stuffs like Padshop, Halion, Arturia Analog Lab, Cube, Iris 2 ...all within the KK environment...includes mapping, previews, tagging etc. He covers probably about 50% of the popular ones out there.

Thanks as always for your creative, thoughtful, and BALANCED perspective! If only all of we responders below were as fair and balanced as you. 🙂 You asked about Freelance Soundlabs NKS templates. A couple of pros, several cons: Pros - A lot of 'non-NKS-compatible' libraries (e.g., Omnisphere, Keyscape, Analog Lab) have been made much more browsable and editable (are these words?) in KK and Maschine. - and fairly affordably, especially if you consider the amount of time these guys must spend to put together the database and image files it takes for even a single instrument/library. Cons - The $ and complexity will add up if you have a lot of products/user libraries you want to add. I have Omnisphere and two Sonic Extensions and a bunch of user patch libraries. Each of these are separate templates, which means separate co$t$, and separate installs. - Their template may not match the button/knob/parameter setup you want in your editing. (You built a MIDI template for Omnisphere that reflected your preferences in editing.) - You must use KK to use these templates. You don't have to with your built-in MIDI template. I would enjoy you doing a video on one of their templates (e.g., Omnisphere w/ Unclean Machines?), and getting your perspective on pros/cons. Oh one other thing you might like about their templates. You get to see the Omnisphere jpg. ;-)

I rely on MIDI templates for controlling external synths, so I've been holding off on getting a mk3 until they added this feature. It's finally here, and fortunately, they did a solid job on it, so I just got an S61 mk3. What an awesome keyboard! The keys feel fantastic. Aftertouch is really smooth and easy to control expressively. The screen is beautiful. A very worthy successor to my old S49 mk1. For most plugins, it's better to just load the plugin in Komplete Kontrol, edit the controls there, and save that as an NKS preset. You get better two-way communication, with the values on the keyboard updating as you change them in the plugin. Many controls have more useful values as well (like Hz for cutoff or LFO rate, time values for envelopes, etc., instead of just 0-127).

@@jefgibbons I don't know if it's that big a deal with software synths, but when you get to the hardware you might find that things aren't as flexible. NRPNs allow for more controls than just CC, and a lot of more modern synths are going beyond what is allowed for in "regular" MIDI, both in number of parameters and range of control. In software, you can pretty much aim a CC at whatever you want, but in hardware, the various parameter numbers (CC or NRPN) are usually hard-coded, and in many cases, the CCs will follow a loose industry standard. That was kind of restrictive, so NRPNs were developed for manufacturer and/or device specific parameters. I that makes sense...

It's not like physical controls and touchscreens are mutually exclusive. I agree that adjusting faders and knobs with physical controls is superior to just a touchscreen. But a touchscreen is unbeatable for browsing and typing. The solution is, obviously, to have implemented both. I would have happily paid another $100 for this keyboard if a touchscreen was an option.

Hi Jef! To the best of my knowledge, Omnisphere, like many (or most?) plugins doesn't send MIDI from their controls, but they send VST automation (in addition to receiving it). So using the DAW (like Cubase) or another plugin wrapper to effectively provide the bi-directional translation from hardware MIDI to plugin VST automation is the only way to truly take advantage of hardware like Komplete Kontrol or Maschine. And then you might be better off just using one consistent template on the Komplete Kontrol, and do the mapping to the VST in the DAW or wrapper. Might also be possible with the Komplete Kontrol Software acting as the wrapper around Omnisphere?
@st0rmchild2 ай бұрын
Yes, and that's why MIDI templates aren't a good fit for controlling plugins. They're meant for controlling external, hardware synths. For plugins, it's better to load the plugin in Komplete Kontrol and edit the controls directly in there. That will provide two-way communication, and in most cases, more useful values than the standard 0-127.
@nico52 ай бұрын
@@st0rmchild Yes, however unfortunately a lot of classic synth gear uses a lot of MIDI SysEx rather than MIDI CC for parameter control, and I doubt that the new Mk3 mapping is SysEx capable. So yet again, you’d need some sort of additional mapping hardware or software as a translation layer. Except this time it would be MIDI SysEx rather than VST Automation. And in that case, might as well return to a single Mk3 map. The problem with most gear is, that it goes for the stuff that makes marketing copy read well. But advanced integration is not a real priority for most. As so often, a nice piece of hardware is limited by its firmware/software. I’m typing this on an iPad - a classic example of the software not measuring up to the hardware.
