This software isn't JUST for the Kontrol Keyboards...

This application makes it quicker and easier to find sounds – browse and load all KOMPLETE Instrument presets from this single plug-in. It’s also the interface between KOMPLETE Instruments and the KOMPLETE KONTROL S-Series keyboards.

Download KOMPLETE KONTROL SOFTWARE here, for Mac or PC.

Does this work for Komplete 8 Ultimate, as far as the preset locator?

Not likely Bob but try the link Bob above, you still need a serial emailed to you.


When you open all the windows it seems like an enhanced version of Kontakt to me with a few extra keyboard features at the top (root note, scale type, key mode, chord mode) shown by press the button with notes on it. I guess I haven't touched the surface or is that it?
 
Also it seems a good way to have patches that are read only so they can't be edited.

Komplete Kontrol is now is the must powerful synth under the sun! OK, maybe not really a synth. But it has a 12000 plus presets under an interface. I am discovering new sounds and even Reaktor synths that I didn't know I owned. It is like getting a new synth to play with. Have fun!

It's pretty kewl...you can pick the instrument type then pick the preset you want...

Far easier then going through all your plugins to find the sound you're looking for...

Oh, man.  This morning I got the e-mail from NI about this Komplete browser.  I thought, "Wow, that's pretty neat!  A free tool that shouldn't take long to install and try out ... how hard could that be?"
 
I should have remembered my experience with installing that free Waves StudioRack.  Long story short, after a full day of downloading, installing, updating, rinse, repeat (over and over and over again), I now have this thing running.
 
Was it worth the hassle?  Um, no. 
 
I guess it's a nice tool to have, but somehow my installation went horribly wrong and only now am I back to normal.  I think. 
 
Proceed with caution -- make sure you have PLENTY of disk space if you need to update your NI instruments like Reaktor or Absynth.  And also make sure you have backups of your NI dll files ... somehow the installer managed to delete all those for me.  These latest NI installers leave much to be desired, I'd say.  Not exactly foolproof.  Anyway, good luck!
 
Cheers,
Eddie

+1   I've only had a few minutes to play with it so far, but it seems like a very nice tool for Komplete 9 users.   And conveniently (at least for me) it's right by Kontakt in the list of VSTi's.   Now, how to remove a plugin from the right-side pane...

There must be something wrong with your system Eddie...
It installed in less then a minute, authorized, and works perfectly for me.
It didn't change anything or do anything (that I can see) it just added
the Kontrol, both VST and Standalone...and both work fine (so far)
and it didn't do anything to my intalled locations, which are all on my
external drive...

Maybe I'm missing something, or it might be a conflict with something else
running on your machine that is causing that, because, from what I've
read, everyone seems to be installing it just fine...

I'm running Win 8.1...and StudioRack installed perfectly fine for me also...
I recall a minor glitch, but that was resolved by Waves very quickly...

NI installers mount disk images which is a design mistake on my view. Plenty of virus scanners do not like this! Disable your antivirus. Also take care with the install file path. I always make sure 32 bit plugins are installed outside the Sonar VST path for instance as I dont get the option to not install them (another feature they forgot about). Ta

No install problems with the MS security app. It located all the files needed on multiple drives. Nice browser but I'm sure you won't get the best of it without the new keyboard. There are some options for setting the apps for the NI control surface. Too bad they are too expensive for me.

I seem to have bad luck with these freebie installs ... maybe I should be a beta tester. 
 
In fairness, the KK browser itself doesn't seem to have been the cause of my trouble.  But the required updates to the instruments to get them to work with the browser -- THAT was a different story.  In my case, they screwed up royally.  Major weaknesses in error checking and recovery, I'd say.  But all's well now, and yes, it is a cool thing to be able to search through all your Komplete instruments from one place.

I assume you will only see Kontakt libraries if they are regestered. (ie need service centre), is that the case, or do all NKI's show up?

Komplete Kontrol seems pretty nifty. To be able to browse all the presets from one place is great. If it only had a dedicated hardware controller and the ability to create your own multi's with a whole bunch of internal FX and the ability to use other VSTi's and maybe 8 knobs to morph your sounds that would really be great!  And if it had......hey, wait a minute.

Glad you guys started this thread.  I got the email, but kind of overlooked it at first. Skimming it and didn't realize how useful this little plug really could be.  Just installed it this morning and have been going through some presets.  It is really cool to just filter what you are looking for and have all NI presets that fit the criteria all in one spot.  Nice!

Anyone downloaded this who is a Kore User?  - No thanks to NI I still have my Kore, Kore Controller and kore packs and still use them on a regular basis - this seems very similar - any thoughts?

They all show up. There's three view catagories, Drums and Perc, Sampled Instruments and Synths. There's even a view where a hybrid view of Reaktor or Kontakt shows up. I saw Acoustic Refractions on the list of instruments but I don't think I saw Kore. Lots to still explore. Your Kontakt 5 era or later stuff should show up in Komplete Kontrol. Kontakt 4 and Kore era not.

I'm glad to see this post.......I thought this was mostly for the new NI hardware and not much towards the general K9 user, but it looks to be a very useful tool. Will update......Thanks!!! 
 
Nigel, although I don't have any Kore Hardware, I too love to use Kore (even bought a soundpack recently).
I agree, it does look very similar to Kore.....will check it out as soon as I install.

Just got this from NI and it will be good for all Maschine 2 Software owners........they certainly know about how to have everything setup (software-wise) before the hardware comes out.  
 
 
The MASCHINE 2.2 software update is coming. It will deliver some major feature enhancements, and if you’ve bought a KOMPLETE KONTROL S-Series keyboard, this update will unlock the full keyboard feature set within your MASCHINE software. The update will be released in November and will be free for current MASCHINE 2 software owners. It includes the following powerful improvements:
  • Full KOMPLETE KONTROL S-Series keyboards functionality (Light Guide, Performance Features, Parameter Mapping, Browsing), within the MASCHINE environment. KOMPLETE KONTROL software is not required to access these features
  • Extended MASCHINE Keyboard Mode with new scale and chord engine
  • Note Repeat extended into a fully-functional arpeggiator – the output of the arpeggiator is recorded into the Pattern Editor for post-performance editing
  • Activation of MASCHINE STUDIO’s touch-sensitive knobs – see available options and functions each knob controls in a pop-up list on MASCHINE STUDIO’s two color displays
Learn more about the new features coming in the MASCHINE 2.2 software
