It may not have the bells and whistles of the S-Series, but if you need a well-designed and good-quality controller keyboard then the Komplete Kontrol A-Series is well worth a look. DAW control/integration is included for Logic, Garageband, Ableton, Cubase and Nuendo and the Native Kontrol Standard is being adopted by an ever-increasing number of 3rd-party sound creators. However, if you already have a favourite DAW, there is also plenty on offer here beyond just the hardware. This means that buying the A25 gives you a means of getting started in music making without touching any other software. ![]() Additionally, Maschine Essentials, which includes the full Maschine software (but with a trimmed 1.6GB of content) is also thrown into the mix. That being said, for the A25’s £119 price tag you do get two strong Kontakt-based piano libraries, a couple of excellent synths and ‘Player’ versions of Reaktor, Kontakt and Guitar Rig plus a £22 NI Store e-voucher. However, this is perhaps a fair compromise given the large price difference. Whilst the S-Series design means they almost feel like self-self-contained instruments, the A-Series feels a little less seamless in use. Other than individual button lights being on or off, the small front-panel OLED is the only way of getting any visual feedback without resorting to the attached software. Here browsing can be directly controlled by the buttons and knob above the A25 keyboard (with the eight encoders automatically mapped to suitable sound editing parameters). However, they can also be brought together using the Komplete Kontrol software. The A-Series comes with a decent bundle of sound generating software – with the provided NI instruments and libraries all accessible in both standalone and plug-in versions. ![]()
