12.6 Installing NKS Instruments

Native Kontrol Standard (NKS) is a software instrument format that allows third-party develop-
ers to integrate with KOMPLETE KONTROL and MASCHINE hardware and software at the
same deep level as KOMPLETE Instruments and Effects.
The Native Kontrol Standard includes:

▪

Seamless integration into the KOMPLETE KONTROL Browser for a unified browsing experi-
ence.

▪

Full parameter mapping for instant hands-on control.

NKS Instruments can be found in the KOMPLETE KONTROL Browser next to your KOM-
PLETE Instruments. All of their Preset files are fully tagged, so filtering in the Browser gives
you matching results from both KOMPLETE Instruments and NKS Instruments. And when you
load a Preset file from an NKS Instrument, its parameters are automatically mapped to the
controls on the keyboard.
