The kind of mapping described in the article would involve using the Controller Editor from NI that was installed at the same time as Komplete Kontrol. (It is odd they hadn't added it yet, as the new Maschine Mk3 controllers and software already has it.) They have not yet added Mackie MCU compatibility which would allow the transport buttons on the S-61 Mk2 to work with other DAWs, but that is supposedly anticipated for early 2019. įrankly, the Native Instruments keyboard is MADE to control Native Instruments plugins, and not really other things. I will answer any questions people have here - please don't ask them at my Blog, as this forum gets far more traffic relevant to this than my blog ever will.Ĭlick to expand.The article is opening for me, so I'm not sure what might have been happening that day you tried.

Right-click on the entry and select from the 'Transport' section either Play, Record, FF, Rewind or Loop, depending upon which button you have pushed, and you will be on your way. On the 'Customize Controllers' page, turn on the MIDI Learn and press each transport control, and you will see its code appear. (The article references an Akai MPK249, but the steps are exactly the same for the most part.) Unlike what is suggested by NI, do not set up the Hardware Controller entry for S-Series keyboards as 'Mackie Universal Controller' (since there is no such entry in Samplitude), but rather set it up as a general MIDI device following the same steps as outlined in this article on my blog. I recently wrote an article on setting up the hardware controllers in Samplitude Pro X2 and X3.
