Arturia x Native Instruments NKS Integration
Music makers using Arturia’s renowned controllers can now enjoy a deeper, more connected experience through Native Kontrol Standard (NKS) compatibility. Compatibility for all users with KeyLab mk3, KeyLab Essential mk3 and minilab 3, will be available soon. “Arturia is committed to designing universal MIDI controllers, built to inspire creativity without limits.” says Martin Dutasta, Product director at Arturia. “We're thrilled to partner with Native Instruments on NKS integration. This initiative brings greater connectivity and a more fluid workflow, benefiting creators who rely on both ecosystems.”
"This reinforces our commitment to an open and connected music industry," adds Simon Cross, Chief Product Officer at Native Instruments. "We’re giving musicians the freedom to explore sound without workflow limitations." Through Native Instruments' new NKS Hardware Partner Program, musicians can use Komplete Kontrol software to intuitively access and control over 2,000 NKS-compatible instruments and effects - with instant mappings and seamless playability across supported Arturia controllers.
Available in the coming weeks on:
- KeyLab mk3
- KeyLab Essential mk3
- MiniLab 3
Both Arturia and Native Instruments share a mission: to empower musicians with open, compatible, and inspiring tools. With this new integration, creators can focus on making music - not managing their setup.
