What's more, a Preview Sound function now lets you hear sounds when browsing presets to help with a fast and efficient workflow. Sounds can also be searched using musical tags and keywords. It allows you to search sounds across all KOMPLETE and NKS instruments by simply pressing the controller's Browse button and turning the push encoder to select your instrument and sound. When used with KOMPLETE, the KOMPLETE KONTROL software allows for unified browsing from a single plug-in. The S61 is designed to be used with all software- and hardware-based MIDI instruments and features expanded integration with KOMPLETE 9, KOMPLETE 10, KOMPLETE 11, and KOMPLETE 12 such as automatic parameter mapping. Additionally, there are DAW transport controls for direct access to DAW transport functions for Logic Pro X, Ableton Live, GarageBand, Cubase, and Nuendo. The keybed of the keyboard is made by Fatar and offers semi-weighted keys with aftertouch. Other notable upgrades include a four-directional push encoder, eight touch-sensitive knobs, ergonomic pitch and mod controls, an assignable touch-sensitive smart strip, and dedicated MASCHINE controls with access to Scenes, Patterns, and Tracks.

The Native Instruments KOMPLETE KONTROL S61 MK2 builds upon the success of the original with an updated user interface featuring two high-resolution displays and more buttons for faster direct control over parameters.
