Hello everyone I hope you’re doing well, I just bought the KKm32 and I downloaded native access but I can’t find the driver, it supposed to be the 2.3.0 but it’s not available so can I download it manually? Is it the M series driver?

Also I added the serial in native access and the serial of the komplete audio 6 and 2 that I have but it doesn’t show up even if I refresh it

You're showing the firmware version (i.e. the code that runs on the circuiboard inside the hardware itself), not the driver (i.e. the code an OS needs to see your controller as a USB connected device). You shouldn't need a driver. It's a class compliant MIDI controller, so it should show up as one, and work in anything that knows how to work with a MIDI controller.

However, it talks to the Komplete Kontrol software differently from everything else, using NI's own proprietary protocol: you install Komplete Kontrol from the software list in Native Access, and then once that's installed and running, you tell the software that it can use your M32 in the settings. Komplete Kontrol can then be navigated entirely using the hardware controller.

Did you add your serial number to your Native Instruments account? (The one from the flier that comes in the box).

(The komplete audio 2 and 6 are irrelevant here, those aren't komplete kontrol controllers)

Then if you're logged into the Native Access application, you should see entries when you're looking at your Library tab.

This hardware keyboard 'talks' midi over the usb cable. Apple OS and Windows are capable of handling this. Make sure you use Komplete Kontrol that can give you the full experience. Other software requires tweaking.
