Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S88 MK2 won’t interface with Logic Pro 10.7

I just bought and received a brand new Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol 288 MK2 (2022). Upon hooking up to the device to my M1 MacMini (2020), and launching Logic Pro X, I noticed that the S88’s transport and DAW control system is not recognized by Logic and therefore does not work. However, the transport and DAW control system on the S88 works in Ableton Live Lite 11. Is this a Logic bug? Is there a solution I can try? Thanks in advance for your support.

Mac mini, macOS 12.1

Page 23 of the user manual tells you how to set it up for Logic and GarageBand.


4.3.1 Setting up Apple Logic Pro X and GarageBand

Apple Logic Pro X and GarageBand are automatically configured for advanced integration with KOMPLETE KONTROL once you launch the respective application for the first time after in- stalling the KOMPLETE KONTROL software. A dialog asks you to confirm this after launching the application:

► When the message OSC app “KOMPLETE KONTROL S-Series” wants to connect to Logic Pro X / GarageBand appears on screen, click OK.


Setting up KOMPLETE KONTROL

Setting up Host Integration

▪ Apple Logic Pro X ▪ Apple GarageBand ▪ Ableton Live

The KOMPLETE KONTROL stand-alone application must be opened once before using the plug-in within your DAW for the first time, and after installing new Instruments.


Then as for using Rosetta, that's in NI's support library:

From what you describe above, you might have a global preset for Ableton loaded into Komplete Kontrol as a default, and that's why it works with Live Lite 11, but not Logic.


Possible solution: NI stuff normally comes with a setup app of its own where you can load and change settings, so you may use that app to search for and load a Logic preset for the keyboard. In addition, check out Operation Manual for Komplete Kontrol MK2 and at least go through Quick Start or the section that explains its basic setup and operation.
