Bring your virtual instruments to life with the Kontrol S61 MK3 61-Key Smart Keyboard Controller, a sophisticated MIDI keyboard controller designed for immersive musical experiences. Available in three size options, this controller offers an intuitive connection to your Digital Audio Workstation (DAW), instruments, and effects, facilitated by a high-resolution screen for seamless navigation.

The Kontrol S61 MK3 features 61 semi-weighted keys with standard polyphonic aftertouch, offering an authentic piano feel. This advanced keyboard controller bridges the gap between virtual and real-world instruments, providing an unparalleled direct connection to Kontakt for in-depth control.

With its intelligent auto-mapping feature, you can quickly find sounds and adjust parameters using the intuitive on-screen navigation.
