Been looking for a MIDI controller for a while to help me start making tunes. I stumbled across this video and am now sold on this controller! The hardware alone is worth the money let alone the software bundle as well. Thanks so much!
@@GetintheMixhow come when I am in Komplete, I choose a sound, and as soon as it loads up and shows the control system on the page, I can’t hear anything?
To note: Massive is not included in the bundled Komplete software. Please make sure you're running at least OSX 10.12 if you're on Mac for this keyboard to work properly.

I ordered this a few days ago because it caught my eye, and I recently got a maschine. I wanted something that would sync with it no problem so I stayed with with same brand. Heard nothing but positive reviews about it and I’m happy to wait for it to come in
I want to get into making tracks with my brother and am going to get this soon. Great video introducing major features! Thanks a lot. Looking forward to playing around with this on my own :)
this answered all my questions ...that I spent half a day searching for on youtube ... wanted just the Maschine software and I think I have found the cheapest way to get it .. I already have the Komplete 11
I hooked up and downloaded software, started Komplete Kontrol and it does not connect. How to diagnose this? No sound is produced. sound bar greyed out no connect light.
This is just to let folks know Massive is in fact included. I just bought the M32 and it did come with Massive and all the other toys. I even got a free Irish Harp added on last week. Maybe the scope of delivery changed since they first launched the product, idk.
A good comprehensive video with one flaw (almost the same as NI made in the design); on the tiny LCD screen it is very hard to see what's going on. In your case because of the reflection of the lightning.
I'm using this without complete software. But i really want to just transpose by -1 or +1 semitone. Is that possible when using simply as midi controller?
Awesome Vid, though I'm having trouble figuring out how to map the whole kit to the controller within Maschine; have been trying for a while now and can't seem to figure it out. You start recording after you've already done this--what am I missing?
You can switch between keyboard and pad mode using Shift+Octave Up. Maybe that is what you were looking for? Also, Shift+Octave Down enables fixed velocity mode, which is great for playing sounds without worrying about your fine motor skills.
Hi Thanks for your helpful reviews! After many months of M32 usage, I have to complain about the touch strips. In my opinion, they are very poor in quality. Firstly, I often unintentionally touch them with my left hand, especially the ModWheel, which frequently controls the dynamics of sample libraries. I don't know why, but the touch sometimes causes a reset of the strip, resulting in the overall volume (dynamic) being reset. I only realize this after minutes of wondering why the library is suddenly silent. So, in my opinion, the major flaw of this keyboard is the presence of these useless touch strips and also unnecessary keys. As an orchestral music composer, I would instead appreciate two real hardware sliders on the left of the keyboard as a replacement for the touch strips, along with fewer useless buttons and rotary knobs. That's just my opinion. The M32 with sliders would be a great keyboard. Another minor issue is the position of the USB connector: in that position, the keyboard takes up a lot of space on a small desktop. It's a pity. Nothing personal, but for me, Native Instruments fails in both hardware devices and sample libraries. Giorgio
I just got an M32 and am running Komplete Kontrol and Kontact in my Reaper DAW. I can use the M32 to play plug-in sound selections on a track but the sound parameters aren't mapped to the M32 rotary encoders. Any ideas?
Scale and chord mode are not working. The velocity is very quiet so the natural playing is not possible. I use Maschine MK2 and the NI Maschine Software. Please help!
Why nobody is talking about that you can't change the CC messages? They are fixed as I read on the forums. I'm a begginer and I plan on buying a MIDI and I was pretty sure I wanted to get this(even tho it doesn't have pads), but since I heard about the CC modification thing I'm not so sure 'bout it. I mean at start all the features that come with M32 will be really handy, but what afterwards. Or if I find some DAW that isn' t supported by NKS etc. I really like this product, but at the same time I'm disappointed. You can share your opinion about this (will be appreciated).
Yup. Almost any of the (sponsored?) reviews and tutorials skip this part. Because it means that the unit is anything but "integrated" with say Ableton Live. For instance, to my knowledge there is no way to make the encoders automatically blue hand control Live's devices like almost every other keyboard out there is able to do (via Live Remote Scripts that won't work with the M32 and the A-series due to, amongst other things the CC issue). The irony is, i don't even own the keyboard but just a bit of reading on forums etc. will give you this crucial information that tutorials such as this skip over. Also they don't mention that on PC it only works with Windows 10. Oh well, i've come to terms with it in the sense that i look at the hardware more like a dedicated controller for NI software only and to use different controllers for DAW control.
I mean the thing is it works for now with few good DAW(abelton, logic etc.), but it's all because its new. What after some time when it gets cut off the support by NI? You're just gonna keep it there? And btw, there was one user on the forums that sold his S25 for M32 and afterwards learned that the CC contiguration is fixed. If I can say his words it goes somerhing like this "I just sold my perfectly good working midi for a toy."
I also thought they had forgotten about Ableton Live Lite at first but then I got an e-mail with instructions on how to get an Ableton key. Didn't even have to contact them.
Hello!! thanks for your video. You know I have this controller but it can't do a good setup. My daw is logic Pro x version 10.4.6 and I use macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 Can I take advantage of this device? thanks for your help. Thank you so much!!
Yes this is now possible, please refer to this page to see how that is set up in your DAW settings: support.native-instruments.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360006299698-MCU-support-for-Komplete-Kontrol-keyboards-S-Series-MK2-A-Series-M32-en-us-
I need to play live with frequent changes in chromatic semitones while playing the same keys. Shall be grateful if you kindly tell me the way. I need to assign the standard A# key to B,C, A or G# frequently. Our harmonium changes the whole chromatic semitone with a flick of a slider.
"The keys are really nicely positioned together." That's a bonus on a controller keyboard. That's something that you don't always find. +1 for the M32. Edit: /s
Hi guys. Is this keyboard compatible with an android phone? I am a complete novice so maybe you may find this question stupid. Is it an apple-type of device which is can work only inside a very restricted eco-system or it can work with other software?
Ciaoooo and thank you for the great review! I've a couple of questions. The 2 strips can only used to change octaves or can they be used to modulate and/or apply effects on the notes we are playing? And can I assign a sound (recorded by me) to each key? For example if I wish to split a song chorus into pieces, could I assign each piece to each key? For example in the chorus "No rhyme, no reason, No time, no season, No rhyme, no reason, This time, you're leavin'" I wish to assign "No rhyme, no reason" to one key, "No time, no season" to another key and so on... and play each part that I wish only pressing the right key. And could I also slow down or speed up the tempo of the chorus? Thank you heaps!
As a dumb beginner. I bought the M32 from Gear4you. I explained I wanted something simple, which would run of Garage band on my iPad. I was told I need an Apple camera connector and I would be set to go. I left the shop with my M32 tucked under my arm a happy bunny. Once home and unpacked the fun began. The First challenge was the message on my screen 'Not enough power to run the Application'. So some research on connector’s suggested I needed a USB 3. I got one, still the same message. O.K. Hook it up to my old, but trustworthy MacBook pro and an earlier version of Garage band. Go back to the box for the instruction book, because the un-named knobs on the M32 made little sense. No instructions but a neat black card with the serial number, and a web address for advice on setting up. Which of course I did. After fruitlessly poking around getting nowhere I came to the sad conclusion, re-enforced by this well presented video that I was out out my depth. My problem is me, not the M32, which anyone can see, in the hands of a talented person with the critical mass of knowledge, it is a genuine piece of clever technology. So cap in hand I guess tomorrow I will return to Gear4you and throw myself at their feet to see if there is an individual who will shine a light into dark places, or give me a refund, or perhaps I might just buy an acoustic guitar and get to figure out how much of my meagre pianistic skills are transferable, without the need for a fairly deep dive into the electronic mysteries of daw's.
Will this control (continuous control with knobs and ribbon strips) Serum within presonus studio one 4.5? Will the transport controls work with studio one?
The transport controls will not work with Studio One. The keyboard will still function for midi though, and perhaps you'll be able to map the knobs to Serum, it will not be automatic though.
Sold! Apreeeesh the brilliant, thorough and fun walk through! Easily the best bang for the buck mini keyboard controller, ordered mine just now, can’t wait to get into it. Question for you outside of the Komplete review,, more about the brilliant filming of the video... what camera are you using overhead and how is it mounted? Also, have to say enjoyed the funny edits, especially the giant hands lol Bless up!
We're happy to hear you enjoyed the video, thanks for your comment! It's a great midi keyboard, you're gonna love using it. The camera overhead is a Nikon D3300 and it is mounted to a metal frame in the ceiling - there are ceiling tiles in this room that sit on this frame.
newbie here, can we play drums via keys ?? I wanted to buy m32 but was confused as it didn't have drum pads, if we can play drums with keys, I guess I can compromise on the pads, suggestions ?
It's a bummer it doesn't work with Studio One. I have a Maschine Jam, how well would this controller work with it for Maschine? I assume they can both be used. I don't have Ableton or Logic unfortunately. I've got 4 or 5 other DAWs that seem to be getting snubbed out.
Complete beginner at this. Finding new to navigate using machine. How do you load a kit (a drum kit for example) and how do you set it so that the kit can be played using the keyboard?
The kit should be playable without having to do anything beyond selecting it. We'd definitely recommend checking out our Complete Introduction to Maschine Mikro video which covers in much more detail navigating within Maschine itself which will help you with this keyboard also - you can watch that here: ua-cam.com/video/elGVnj2PcQo/v-deo.html
Awesome review. But I have a question. How far it goes as a live rig? Can it beat Akai MPK Mini 2 or Arturia Minilab 2 as a live performance instrument?
In the case where it doesn't select the pattern length after creating it, push the encoder in again and this will then select the pattern and allow you to change the length. Hope this helps!
Thanks for the great vid. Just wondering at 18:00 does this demonstrate you mapping parameters with the pots? Can you map them for automation, or are the pots only designated to work with native instruments?
In Maschine, they are pre-mapped to control various functions. In this case, as it is the second pot along, it is controlling the cut-off which is the second setting along on the window we have focus on. They can be remapped and if in another DAW you can use them to control automation etc just as you could with other midi-keyboards.
Useful and very analytical information as usually! I watched your mikro mk3 video as well and it was great! I have a question you might be able to help mr with. Do you think M32 is worth getting if you already have a mikro mk3? I realised that a lot of the software and instruments included are quite similar
Use the firmware updater and install the latest firmware. If even that doesn't find the keyboard, you may need to install some OS updates first (e.g. new Windows updates will become available after you first plug it in)
Can be used with any VSTs providing the DAW is supported by Native Instruments - these include: Logic Pro X 10.3 or higher GarageBand 10.3 or higher Ableton Live 10.06 or higher Cubase Artist / Pro 8.5 or higher Nuendo 7.1.35 or higher Studio One 4.5 or higher
@@GetintheMix Ah, so the arpeggiator does not occur inside the keyboard itself sending the notes as if they were being played in succession? It's done in software and injected into the DAW? That sucks if you use a non-supported DAW like I do... :-(
Hi! Great vid! Can we use other plug ins (for example Nexus, Real Guitar, Heat Up, ecc) and not just those which are included with this MIDI? Best wishes!
I've just bought one, registered it, and uploaded all the software. I can 'select' a sound - but the sound just will not transpose on to the keys. The selector dial on the right will play the clip, sample, or loop, but the keys are totally dead. Why is this? I'm so confused...

Awesome review. But I have a question. How far it goes as a live rig? Can it beat Akai MPK Mini 2 or Arturia Minilab 2 as a live performance instrument?
good stuff, thanks.
I can't do that bar selection you do at 10:27, have tried so many times.... I have the same controller and the same software. Any help?
In the case where it doesn't select the pattern length after creating it, push the encoder in again and this will then select the pattern and allow you to change the length. Hope this helps!
@@GetintheMix thanks, it really helped me.
Where do I find the cheat sheets you referenced near the end of the video
Love it!!!
Anyone know how to transpose on this thing?
Does this work with studio one 4.5 professional?
Thanks for the great vid. Just wondering at 18:00 does this demonstrate you mapping parameters with the pots? Can you map them for automation, or are the pots only designated to work with native instruments?
In Maschine, they are pre-mapped to control various functions. In this case, as it is the second pot along, it is controlling the cut-off which is the second setting along on the window we have focus on.
They can be remapped and if in another DAW you can use them to control automation etc just as you could with other midi-keyboards.
does it woth it to use it with maschine mikro mk3?i got one mikro for my small home studio
Yes, the two work with each other well, it's a good combo!
Useful and very analytical information as usually! I watched your mikro mk3 video as well and it was great! I have a question you might be able to help mr with. Do you think M32 is worth getting if you already have a mikro mk3? I realised that a lot of the software and instruments included are quite similar
That PC transformed into a MacBook by the end of the video lol
Great video! I support u! Peace.
Is there a step by step process, anywhere, to get this running on MAC
My lights keep on flashing from right to left, it seems like its not connecting to my pc. any tips?
Use the firmware updater and install the latest firmware. If even that doesn't find the keyboard, you may need to install some OS updates first (e.g. new Windows updates will become available after you first plug it in)
Hi, do the scale, chord and arpeggiator only work inside Kontact or NI plugins? Or can they be used with any VSTs?
Can be used with any VSTs providing the DAW is supported by Native Instruments - these include:
Logic Pro X 10.3 or higher
GarageBand 10.3 or higher
Ableton Live 10.06 or higher
Cubase Artist / Pro 8.5 or higher
Nuendo 7.1.35 or higher
Studio One 4.5 or higher
@@GetintheMix Ah, so the arpeggiator does not occur inside the keyboard itself sending the notes as if they were being played in succession? It's done in software and injected into the DAW? That sucks if you use a non-supported DAW like I do... :-(
Hi! Great vid!
Can we use other plug ins (for example Nexus, Real Guitar, Heat Up, ecc) and not just those which are included with this MIDI?
Best wishes!
I've just bought one, registered it, and uploaded all the software. I can 'select' a sound - but the sound just will not transpose on to the keys. The selector dial on the right will play the clip, sample, or loop, but the keys are totally dead. Why is this? I'm so confused...
do you have an audio interface? this is just a MIDI controller. it wont produce any sound at all by itself
@@pavelbuga73 All sorted now, thankfully!
IDEAS switches to Patterns in Maschine - does anybody know how to switch back to the Song view? I can't find that in the manual either.
Mmm... I have the same question...
Thank you Tom Holland
