70+ Waves Plugins Now NKS-Ready

Published Apr 16, 2018

We are pleased to announce that over 70 Waves plugins are now NKS-ready for Native Instruments’ KOMPLETE KONTROL and MASCHINE, with seamless integration allowing direct control of plugin parameters from NI’s hardware and software.

Waves’ virtual instruments, which have been NKS-ready since 2017, are now joined by 63 more NKS-ready effect plugins adapted to Native Kontrol Standard. All of Waves’ NKS-ready effects and instruments provide expert plugin mapping from NI hardware controllers, as well as tag-based preset browsing from NI software.

Expert Plugin Mapping

NKS-ready plugins and instruments load with their key parameters pre-mapped across the control knobs on KOMPLETE KONTROL and MASCHINE hardware. We have worked closely with Native Instruments to ensure that the most important plugin parameters are always at your fingertips, for maximum speed and creative control.

Unified Preset Browsing

NKS-ready plugins and instruments appear with their presets in the powerful tag-based browsers of the KOMPLETE KONTROL and MASCHINE software. You can search presets by plugin, vendor, type and keywords. You can hear instant sound previews of each preset as you browse, making it faster than ever before to find the perfect sound.
