This week we received from Native Instrument an update for Komplete Kontrol announcing a new layer for KKS users, but they reported this on their forum 
“Please note that unfortunately Arturia is a little late and didn’t release the templates on their side to enable them to work with Komplete Kontrol.”
When will this update be available on the Arturia side and will there be a demo of this new integration ?
Will we use directly Komplete Kontrol with our minilab 3 or is it Analog Lab which will now read the KKS libs and open to it all this world ?

Hi @csurieux and thanks for the enquiry.
I’m afraid Arturia rarely, if ever, make pre-announcements.
The best way to keep in touch with the latest happenings is to watch Arturia’s Socal Channels or to make sure to subscribe to The Arturia Newsletter to be the first to know about them.
Thanks but I was not asking for announcement, I was just asking if Arturia will soon catch up releasing the necessary templates to have my Arturia keyboards working with Komplete Kontrol. Because NI made the job on their side…
If I could take a guess, it clashed with the MicroLab release, and they will have to merge those changes with the Komplete Kontrol changes and will release an updated MIDI Control Centre somewhere next Tuesday or Thursday

What a nice guess
We’ve postpone the MCC release of last Thirsday because of a last minute bug.
Not a clash between MicroLab and Komplete tho 
It will be released tomorrow with the Komplete Kontrol templates.
Cheers !

Thank you.
May I take this opportunity to ask for something else related to Komplete 
Please, please update the Augmented series NKS libs, change the background or text color for the current preset name displayed on the screen of KKS mk3 (or mk2) because actually they are written in white (or near white) on quite white background AND I CHALLENGE ANYONE TO READ THIS PRESET NAME. 
I’ve been asking for this since many versions of V Collection…

You’re welcome.
I’ve raised the Augmented NKS issue.
Hopefully it will be fixed for the next releases of the augmented series.
Cheers !

Last point : will Arturia or Native Instrument provide a video on using minilab with Lomplete Kontrol just as Novation, Akai and others have done ?
I finally tested it.
Arturia’s implementation seems ok, but NI framework seems minimalist : no way from minilab to browse the instruments select one of them and browse presets to select one.
We have to use the mouse to switch between browsing instruments and browsing one instrument presets.

I updated to 1.2.0
No Komplete Kontrol Template showing.
Using the default template doesn’t allow for skipping through presets.
You have to transfert it in one bank using the Midi Control Center and activate this bank on the Minilab.
There is no Komplete Kontrol Template in MIDI Control Center showing. I was a bit unspecific. I’m on 1.2.0
What device are you using ?
The Komplete Kontrol are only availables for ou latest Lab range: MicroLab mk3 / KeyLab Essential mk3 / KeyLab 3
If you are using one of these three, please re-install the MCC, or contact our support team, you should have the new factories templates.
Cheers !
