Browsing and tweaking is easier than ever before thanks to the two full colour, high-resolution screens, and the four-directional push encoder. With these, you can navigate your project and easily see what you’re doing without having to use your computer, so the music making process becomes more intuitive. You can use the tag-based preset browser to rapidly find the exact sounds you need and hear instant previews, no longer will you have to spend hours searching through folders to get what you want, and with the S61 MK2, it is all right there on the screen. The S61 Mk2 provides you with pre-mapped control of Komplete instruments alongside hundreds of Native Kontrol Standard instruments from leading brands, and on top of all that there is full VSTi support.

The Smart Play function lets you view scales and modes with the light guide and can trigger full chords and arpeggios with a single key as well as map any scale to only the white keys. This function means you can never go out of key or hit a wrong note and is a fantastic feature for those who are new to music theory as well as producers and live performers who need an easy way to play without ruining the melodic harmony.
