Kontrol S88 keybed action


Recommended Posts

About a year and a half ago I bought an S88 keyboard controller (without trying it first) and HATED the action.  It was very stiff.  I sold it on Reverb a few weeks later.

 

I didn't want to do it because I loved the way that Kontakt maps so nicely to the keyboard screens / knobs / etc.

 

My question is this:  has Native Instruments recently changed the core keybed in these boards.  I don't know if they have Fatar guts or some other brand, but I remember hearing you guys talk in other threads about how sometimes the manufacturers evolve their instruments over time by changing the keybed/action.

AFAIK, the Mk3 still have some kind of TP100. I searched the NI forums of the subject, and i found something in this sense, but i found no official information, so you should double or triple check before believing me :)

Nord Wave 2, Nord Electro 6D 61,, Rameau upright,  Hammond Pro44H Melodica.

Too many Arturia, NI and AAS plugins
