I agree with some of the comments regarding batch resave, I frequently wonder why this isn't always automatically done behind the scenes. It's such a critical thing that helps so much with load times, it seems like it should be a default feature that the software automatically performs.
This 1000%
I find Kontakt to be one of the most frustrating and counter intuitive samplers to use, so this type of video is more than welcome
Probably cause you’re looking at it as a sampler..it’s more of a sampled instruments player.
Like the epic sound from the multi
Tips and tricks!! Awesome thanks!
Definitely learned a few things. Thanks!
Good format - keep these coming, please.
This was amazing. There were some things that really frustrated me, because I didn't know how to do it. This video just cleared up so much. Thank you.
Didn't know about importing libraries - I have always been using the Quickload Menu for my third party instruments! Great video!
Excellent - have been "just playing" with Kontakt for over 10 years without noticing most of these.
Thanks for this. Great vid.
Fantastic! Learned several new tips here!
Great video, this is long overdue! More please!
Fantastic - - thank you!
More video like this please, thanks!
amazing breakdown,, thank u
Very nice. Learned several new things. Keep em coming.
Good job Brian well explained...I learned something new !!🕺👍
Merci beaucoup !
Wonderful🎉
Very helpful. I didn't know most of these tips.
Useful, thanks 🙏
I watched number 1 of 10 and spent the last 3hrs playing around with different combinations. I'm saving the rest for tomorrow as I have a slow day planned. Sadly, I must devote more time to learning these devices, especially considering I own Komplete 14 Ultimate and several other NI devices.
Thanks for the kick in the a_s
Wow, this was SUPER helpful man!! Great video!
Thank you for this tutorial which will be very useful to us, to tell the truth it's a shame that I don't try to explore it more but I have today 10-point that will allow me to be more efficient in its use. Thank you again for all these tips. Musical Friendship of France.
Im getting kontakt 7 soon I been taking advantage of the summer sale this video was very helpful thank you!
Good tips🎉
What. Is. Happening. With. Reaktor.
It's the software that started NI. So much other stuff going on, but no word about the state of Reaktor, which is in dire need of a UI update.
Reaktor needs more love.
@@meru_lpzSay that about Absynth which they buried 6 feet under.
That is the stuff i like to be learning, i mean there Are few things i Will put hands on, hope to watch a series about instrument bundle, i mean just to get familiarized with them.
Great vid, you should make an update to kontakt so the multiples filters are alway on, and you don't have to hold control, like in analogue labs
Thanks for the tips.
For tags, I would love been able to add/modify existing ones without having to create a user preset …
Dope

Some great tips here. However, I wish there was a way to do batch resave for all libraries rather than having to do each individual one. That gets really painful when you have a tonne of libraries.
Rather than selecting a specific library, you can select the main folder where your libraries are saved. For example, I have a folder labeled Output and inside are all of my Output libraries. Kontakt did batch resave on everything inside output
@@briankullasmusic thanks for this.
A detailed tutorial on using Logic with Kontakt would be great. Include a workflow for calling up new instruments within the same instance. It can take a 1/2 hour to create an instance with your most used instruments, and their output routing associated with Logic’s outputs, but when you begin a new project, or want to use different instruments, there’s a workflow problem trying to figure out how to change/add/subtract instruments fast and efficiently. Also, Kontakt 6 would automatically assign sequential midi channels to each instrument you add, but 7 does not. This is a huge time waster, having to set these manually.
The problem with Logic Pro is that it’s a super buggy and broken piece of software. Creating multi-outputs, track stacks and loading large projects can often trigger some bugs which should’ve been ironed out decades ago… but weren’t.
I use an instrument rack in Ableton to load two instances of Kontakt so I can make a split point.
Yeah...right... batch resave makes your library incompatible with earlier version. Kontakt should know where the samples are already without the need for resaving. It is deliberate programming designed to make the older versions of Kontakt unusable. And it 's annoying.
Can you make a video about how to use maschine with a tractor Kontrol F1 and maschine MK3? Is it possible to connect two F1? I need more pads and control the step secuencer with the F1. I watched the Master class 3 but is not enough information about maschine and F1 integration. Please 🙏🙉
i need that water preset.. available for download?
Native Instruments, make a Kontakt Library simulator to 40s very own drums , Empire Break, Karriem Riggins, etc. But for stuff like House music and DNB.
Does this hold good for free KONTAKT version too? Thanks in advance.
I just love fiddling with Native Instruments products. Bought M32 one year back in a Sale. Enjoying very much since then.
My DAW - Ableton Intro
Yes, you definitely should try out these tricks!
how to route each pad to its own audio channel inside of Artist cubase 13?
Can we output route virtual instruments on the rack to show up as different channels in the daw?
You can! If you look at the GUI @ 01:24, you'll see below brass ensemble it says Output Out 1. You would first create the 8 or 16 stereo out channels in Kontakt like I did at 04:09 and then in the output of each library, select with virtual output you want the instrument to be routed to. In your DAW create the audio channel and select the corresponding channel.
Please get some Luna integration sorted!
My Komplete Library and mk3 keyboard sound amazing in Luna! Get it sorted NI!
Does NI have a means to where I can download these Tutorials? - Chazz
Hey, if you need a manual, you can get it here: bit.ly/3VuTOSB
How about a video that covers multiple articulation sets😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Have you tried using Instrument banks for this? I do have template where I have multiple articulations of a string instruments in one instance of Kontakt but have gotten some use doing this with Instrument banks
@@briankullas6463 Ill have to check that out
What, did mark zuckerburger grow a bear😂
I would like a function where I can save my sorting of the library.. I have to install the library so often since the last years, and ever time I have to sort All instruments again and again... I like the Pianos at the top, then orchestra, guitars and so on... And it costs so many time to sort the again...
Yikes! So much hate in the comments. I guess this shows one of the downsides of being the de facto sample library front end. Lots of use equals lots of, dare I say, niggling complaints. Another problem with that success is that people forget Kontakt is an instrument in itself. I'm just getting into watching videos that get me deeper into its instrument workflow. Looking forward to where that leads!
I got kontact 7 where do I find these vsts inside of kontact
You have to buy those libraries. Did you bought Kontakt 7 separately?
You can purchase the libraries on our website. 🙂 Here's one for 40's Very Own Keys for example: bit.ly/3KDRJ1k
@@NativeInstruments thank you 🔥
I'd rather know how to remove double sounds from the browser that don't play. Anyway, thanks!
Did you know?
That first lick reminds me of Zelda
Kontakt & Drums are so so bad. Maybe only in FL...
I like the libraries which NI offer, but the routing is so so bad. I'd rather open kontakt 5 times for the individual drums than re-route everything.
I agree
Kontakt 7 has been unuseable for months now....latest updates have lead to very slow loading times....over 3 or 4 minutes to load standalone. Instruments in Maschine are unuseable as well thanks to this. Lots of complaints on the forums because apparently the issue is scanning of files on every startup.
I checked this because i have everything installed externally....hatd drive off kontakt loads quick....but with it on...oh boy.
Hi there, could you please check if you're using the latest version of Kontakt, updated just a few weeks ago? We released a fix to address CPU issues. If the problem persists, don't hesitate to contact our support team: bit.ly/n1konta
@@NativeInstruments There's a long support thread already. All of us are using the latest version and apparently there is another fix coming but no ETA. Just a note than several fixes have been supposedly implemented but the problem remains the same. For whatever reason Kontakt is scanning every single instrument, every single time before it loads standalone. This can take up to 5 minutes for me. If I turn off my hard drive, it loads up and then I have to turn on my hard drive and refresh Kontakt.
But this approach doesn't work for Maschine where the instruments themselves use Kontakt to load. No point in scrolling the presets as it takes a long time to land each one...really defeating the purpose of having those presets.
Did you know that I'm gonna start every segment with "Did you know..."?
🤣
Please take my money and give me new maschine plus update
Did you know... Sound familiar?
How to delete Ould be useful. What is on your website is eight years old.
I've been using kontakt from the start and since 7 it's broken and with each update it's not totally unusable..I've asked for help and no joy.
It's got worse since they added the built in store I have now gone back too k6 and using komplete control for other libraries.
Sorry to hear about your experience. If you're still waiting to hear back from our support team, feel free to get back to us with a ticket number and we'll escalate it for you right away.
5:51 that's not what a stem is
It is time to chuck some AI feature into Kontakt
Did YOU know that if you close your eyelids and reopen them quickly, you can moisturize your eyeballs with little to no risk of missing anything happening in your surroundings?
The Latency in Kontakt is horrible!! I have all my library in the main HD with apple M2 Max and it works very bad , specially Guitars libraries, nylon, strum, etc... I had to stop using it
Hey, sorry to hear about this! Please reach out to our Kontakt support team so we can have a closer look. You can contact us through chat over here 👉 bit.ly/n1konta
