If you're new to Kontrol S keyboards, this is the video tutorial you want. Covers all the important functions in a slow and clear manner. A great value!

This Komplete Kontrol course really upgraded the value of my KK purchase. Answered all my questions about work flow and non-NI plugin instrument integration. Also made me aware of things I can do with the KK that I hadn't even thought of. Plus, after viewing a few YouTube 'tutorials', I really appreciate the well thought out and well delivered information in this course. Thank you.
