    +1. Actually to my surprise, unlike instrument player and VI Pro, Vienna Imperial works out of the box with Komplete Kontrol; i.e. All CC's work , parameters can be controlled with knobs, labels are laid out Correctly, again out of the box. I have an S-88.

    I have only VSL orchestra that was in the bundle with VEP. So can someone confirm how it is? I cannot see any labels of faders in my S61 NI keyboard. while loading any instrument in VEP

    VSL? Transmitting KK commands between masters and slaves is a HUGE deal. They need to support NKS.

    Any update on LightGuide support? Having no visual keyswitch indication on my S-Series controller is a real bummer..

    Hello Paul,

    Any update on this as its been some months now. I am sure it must be possible?

    Surely if the VEP plugin was made NKS compatible it would be possible to load it inside an instance of Komplete Kontrol in the DAW and have it communicate with the hardware?

    I have tried and while it does not work, it does show something happening.

    I also tried loading an instance of the VEP server plugin in the DAW and connecting to VEP with a Komplete Kontrol plugin in a rack. This is the closest to working, but it can only manage to load one instance as DAW feedback gets broken and so Track Focus does not work.

    Hi Paul; the 49 keys version of the new MKII Komplete Keyboard will find a home in my setup, could not resist any longer. Ofcourse I would love to see integration with VEP (or just the instruments plugin), but understand it will need some pretty serious coding. 

     

    NI offers a 'mapping' solution for the remote operating of plugins parameters on the DAW the komplete keyboard is connected to; easy to understand it won't function for a slave VEP cos of the nature of its design (and given the sheer number of parameters and data transmission involved if an update would accommodate this).

     

    But how about some sort of navigation? a Remote VEP on it's own screen connected to the slave it resides on but operated from the komplete keyboard? The navigation data has to be mapped to a control panel outside the DAW sending VEP's already existing (ASCII)keyboard shortcuts over the network to their corresponding slaves, but the coding involved is way less complex compared to bringing all parameters of VEP slaves back to the main DAW.. 

     

    NI has to be asked to open a door for VSL so this control panel can grab the data and send it straight over the network to the slaves, but it would enhance the workflow considerably, offering benefits for both companies; komplete keyboard users will be tempted to expand their libraries with VSL products and vice versa.. 

     

    Just my thoughts here, I'm probably overlooking stuff and understand how a company like VSL plans & mans its projects way ahead in the future. But the thought is too tempting; the less moments I spent operating a computer keeps me in the composing workflow. Even when it's just as simple as sending (ASCII)keyboard shortcuts from an NI keyboard controller (nice, two totally different objects with the same name); but the komplete keyboard controller is a musical instrument where the ASCII keyboard is a typewriter..

     

    Best,
