#KONTAKT FULL FULL VERSION#
If you have a need to tweak more, say, move an individual zone from one key to another, tune a sample, or add your own scripting, then the full version of Kontakt is needed. It is up to the developer of the library which controls these are. If you load an instrument in Kontakt Player, you can adjust and tweak the instrument only using the controls presented in the custom interface of the instrument. It is worth noting that the full version of Kontakt is included in Native Instruments Komplete bundle. The Editor is used to build instruments: mapping samples to keys, adjusting amplifiers and envelopes, adding scripting for special behaviour and much more. The main limitation of the free Kontakt Player versus the paid, full version of Kontakt, is that you cannot access the Editor.
All of ProjectSAM’s libraries can be used in Kontakt Player. The free version of Kontakt is called Kontakt Player. Kontakt is loaded onto an instrument track inside the DAW, then an Instrument from a Kontakt library is loaded into Kontakt:
#KONTAKT FULL PRO#
Kontakt supports the VST, AU and AAX protocols, making it compatible with virtually any DAW, including Cubase, Logic and Pro Tools. Kontakt can run as a standalone application but is used most often as an audio instrument (or plug-in) inside a digital audio workstation (DAW, sequencer). Even though the family of Kontakt-related software has grown immensely, including Komplete and Maschine (offering native support for NI’s Komplete Kontrol and Maschine hardware controllers), this article will focus on Kontakt, since it is our experience that this is how the majority of our users use our sounds. Kontakt is a software sampler by Native Instruments that has grown to become the industry-standard for orchestral or otherwise demanding sample libraries.
#KONTAKT FULL HOW TO#
Instruction on how to set up Quick Load can be found HERE.Jump to: About Kontakt | Standalone vs plug-in | Kontakt vs Kontakt Player | The browser | Global settings | Routing About Kontakt Instead, these libraries will need to be loaded via the Kontakt files browser or you can add the library as a favourite to the Kontakt Quick Load window.
Please note that non-Player library instruments will not appear in the Kontakt libraries pane and will not need to be authorized in Native Access as Player libraries need to be. If the library you want to use is NOT a 'Player' library, then you need to buy the full retail version of Kontakt.
#KONTAKT FULL UPGRADE#
As you will already own the free Kontakt player and have bought one of our 'player' libraries you will be eligible for a discount upgrade to Kontakt via the NI website. If you want to go deeper into editing you’ll need a full version. Also, unlike non-Player libraries, these libraries will also be available to load from the Kontakt Libraries pane. The Kontakt player gives you full access to all the sounds and all the editable parameters on the front panel. Essentially, the developer buys you this playback engine. It works with libraries that the developer has paid a license fee for.
Kontakt Player is a free version of the Kontakt sample playback engine available to download HERE.
