This is an in-depth review/test/comparison between the plug-in hosts Komplete Kontrol (from Native Instruments for the controllers with the same name) and Nektarine (from Nektar for the Panorama T controllers as well as the Aura). I do hope this is helpful for anyone wondering if he/she should choose for the NKS system or the Nektarine environment.
Update: See also [ Ссылка ] about importing NKS data into Nektarine.
NKS data is the format for Komplete Kontrol, but the information can be imported into Nektarine too. This way the sounds of NKS supported plug-ins can be added to the Nektarine sound library with much less effort.
00:00 Introduction and the main conclusions before diving in
01:50 A little bit of the history
02:54 Browsing the sound library
05:49 Plug-in control
11:41 Using and controlling multiple instances within a DAW
16:16 Effects, layers and splits
Enjoy!
P.S.:
I am using the latest versions of the software. The Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S, that I use, is certainly not the latest model. The current model has nice displays and a lot of extra buttons. But strangely enough, these extra buttons seem not te be used for the plug-in control. So, what I am showing, is also applicable for the newer models of the NI keyboards.
