Can't find a fault.
This controller was exactly what I thought it would be, AMAZING! Very simple plug and play not messing around controller by Native Instruments they really nailed it with this it comes with Komplete 10 which is more than enough to start making some noises. It works well with Logic, Ableton, and Pro Tools. Its durable which I love (It doesn't feel cheap), the keys are responsive and are sensitive so can give you different velocities on notes. The screens are a huge help and give a nice feeling as you don't have to look to your DAW for certain editing and using the mixer cause you can edit via the knobs. Transport buttons beautiful and satisfying to press. I am still getting the hang of it and will have to revise my review in a year or two when I will have taken the most juice out of it ;) Great purchase I'm really happy with it.

Great for studio, less for live, make sure it works with your DAW
Native Instruments is known for making some of the best sample packs on the market, the Komplete Kontrol is no different, giving you access to many amazing and pre-built features that can really take your sound to the next level.
As such, it is an amazing studio tool. The displays are useful and vibrant, the quality is solid and the sounds are top notch.
Overall I'd say the keys feel good to use as well, making the whole playing experience quite nice.
2 key points you should consider before buying this:
1. It only works connected to a computer. It is NOT a standalone unit. If you are looking for something that carries its sounds with it, look into the Yamaha MX49 and related products.
2. Check if it integrates with your DAW of choice. I use REAPER for my production, and Native has no first party integration with this. Which means no support out of the box, Fortunately, a community user made a plugin that allows the keyboard to talk to your DAW properly. However, make sure this exists for your DAW of choice if it is unsupported.

Ultimate Midi Keyboard
The ultimate keyboard for DAW integration, packed full of features to improve production. Workflow is much quicker having the screens on the keyboard, means less time going back and forward between computer and keyboard. The Native Instruments software included is brilliant and loads of sounds to keep you occupied for hours, with the option to upgrade to Komplete 13 for a low enough price.
Fatar keybed is a great middle ground for those who play piano and those who don't. Feels great to my hands.
Over-all, a really well contructed and premium feeling keyboard packed with features and sounds. Highly recommended!

good value for the money
I intended to buy possibly cheapest desktop keyboard. I own one rather big with hammer action keys. Then I started eliminating those with nonsense non-motorised faders, and rotary controllers that are not endless -- dust gatherers completely useless in music production. And I ended up with this one. The whole thing is of good quality and really well designed. Plus you get a useful set of sounds. The integration with Logic and Studio One is flawless (!) , I didn't really think it would be. In Studio One it's maybe a bit difficult to start it, but once started it works alright. Yes, I believe it's money well spent :)

Tout ce dont un-e compositeur-rice peut avoir besoin
Excellent clavier maître avec une intégration parfaite avec les logiciels fournis, ainsi qu'avec tous les plugins compatibles NKS, c'est très impressionnant d'un point de vue fonctionnalité. Si on peut lui reprocher son côté 100% plastique (d'où l'étoile en moins), les matériaux sont quand même de qualité et la finition est impeccable. Surtout, le clavier est très agréable à utiliser.

S49 mkII
This keyboard has been amazing. I use it more than any other MIDI devices I have connected. It makes my workflow far more easier and faster than I thought it would. It's so nice to be able to control so much, so fast, without having to touch my mouse.

Increase your workflow
If you are looking for a midi keyboard to have a fluent workflow that's the option. I've been working a many with Native Instrument plugins, but I felt that I spend so many time clicking the different options and touching the different parameters to find the best instrument. Now, with the Komplete menu everything is more easy and I just focus on my creativity instead of touching the software knobs manually.
