A more comprehensive version of the new NI S series controllers (Which as far as I can determine are limited to just NI products) at a much cheaper price, so on the face of it, extremely good for both live and studio, or at least it would be if it also had a set of sliders, so it’s a 6/10 and wait for the MK2 version which hopefully will add a set of sliders. (Yes I know you can add a set of sliders separate, but that defeats the object of it)

Actually Bill, this is what the Kore should have been, this one is build for musicians, where the NI kontroll was made for non keyboard players that wanted to use a keyboard to make some music..
The NI Kontroll is more expensive withouth a screen so it requires looking at the PC screen when selecting stuff, and indeed does only support the VST apps that come with NI komplete. As said worst part of the Komplete is all that money they spend on those features that prevent people from hitting notes outside the scale and such...
I agree with you that it should have been more complete then this... however combining it with the Akai APC40 mk2 solves most of that...
In the end however they need to build a 76 or 88 keyboard which combines the advance keybed with an APC40 and an MPC renaisance... if they do that, the new true king is born. and you have your sliders and much much more...
