In January, a few of us from the team at Native Instruments, iZotope, and Plugin Alliance were at NAMM in LA for what is the biggest event in the music tech year. It was great to connect with our community, our customers, and many of our partners. And, in fact, partnerships was the central theme of what we announced……
This never used to be a problem, yet all of a sudden Kontakt is not receiving input from my Alesis DM10. It is detected by Windows, drivers are up to date. It is detected by Reaper and is set as my virtual instrument/input method. But nothing is shown in Kontakt. Previously I just set MIDI to "Omni" and it would just work,…
Haven't used in years. Just reconnected and installed audio 4 DJ on windows 11 device. Will not allow me to a tuvate my license. Says no internet connection when computer is clearly connected.
I've followed the tips on the Native Instruments web page and I'm still unable to upgrade the firmware. I haven't played the keyboard for a while so I haven't installed anything out of the ordinary Windows updates. The keyboard used to be totally OK just a couple of months ago. Now I can't play on it.
Since the last update, the previews have become really slow to navigate. I used to select a preset and scroll through them using the arrow keys on my keyboard, but now every preset takes more time to load than it used to, making the Komplete Kontrol experience very sluggish. Previously, the navigation was almost instant,…
Okay, hopefully I'm just dense. I'm using an A61 to play the Stradivari Cello in Komplete Kontrol. Is there a button to click that shows a keyboard at the bottom of the page (like in Kontakt 7) that shows me 1) which note I'm playing and 2) the color mappings for the keys??? And worse… it's annoying that on a 61 note…
I've just picked up a Maschine+ and want to build a dawless setup. Does anyone have any recommendations for small-mid size controller keyboards that work well with the Maschine+ as I'm not vibing on playing pads for melodies? The Kontrol A49 looks good but does it integrate well with the record button etc?
Is there a way to re-assign the default articulation key-switches in Kontakt (specifically Session Horns Pro)? I'd like to move them from the default C-1 octave to the C1 octave. I've read the manual and searched (here and google), but can't find the answer. Thanks in advance!
I have been using my NA library for several months without any difficulty until last week when the NA app began to list only a few of the many licensed NA products that the app used to recognize. The location of the library has not changed since I originally installed the library files. My equipment and licensed software:…
My MIDI through has simply stopped functioning. I had this problem before, mentioned in an earlier discussion, and the 'answer' resolved as a factory reset. I guess a factory reset will fix it again, but then I'll lose various settings, which is rather annoying. Is there a way to save my current set up before factory reset…
Updated Guitar Rig 6 and Gui went blank. Same with other NI plug ins. Windows 10, Studio one, Also happens in stand alone. Please Help Thanks
Hi, regularly while I'm playing. I don't understand why. Here is the latest crash log report. Could someone help me, please?
Hi everyone, I bought a Traktor S4 MK3 on January 6th, 2025, and everything was working fine until today (April 1st), when I ran into a serious issue: the right Jog Wheel has stopped working. It seems like there's a problem with the motor. I recorded a YouTube video (link below) where you can clearly see that the left Jog…
This is an interesting problem. I need a script to change Kontakt Instruments depending on keyrange, and the keyrange will dynamically change with modulation CC#1. This is to select which notes along a guitar fretboard are to be played according to fret positions 0 through 17 assigned by mod wheel. One monophonic…
In Logic, when selecting tracks with different instances of Komplete Kontrol, the S88 M2 does not indicate what instrument is active in both the screen and the lighted key indicators. Sometimes it does, but moving track to track they change very slowly and mostly not at all. Is there a solution? Maybe an instruction for…
Hi, I need a way to use the same MIDI-mapping across the whole range of Abbey Road (and Studio Drummer) Libraries. They all contain the possiblity to save optional mappings, but I can not find a way to use those across the libraries. Attached picture shows how I created my own mapping and saved it, but it does not show up…
I am sampling a pipe organ and making a VST instrument. I like Kontakt and I would prefer to do it with it. The thing is, I have the chance to give it to a music museum in Barcelona. They have their own sampler there and I need to send them the samples with its loop and release metadata, so we can port it to their…
I am using FLStudio2024. If I close the window once and reopen it with the STRINGS ENSENMBLE Instrument open, the STRINGS ENSENMBLE in the Libraries is not selected. (It is the first state where nothing is selected). This did not happen when I was using Kontakt5 before, but I wonder if there is a solution to this…
Hi! I have been really enjoying using Traktor Pro for the past two years (version 3 and then later 4). I use it with either mouse/keyboard, or a Numark Mixtrack Pro 3 and a midi mapping file found off the internet and edited to fit my needs. However there is something that has always bugged me about loops and flux mode.…
Correct me if I’m being a dummy, but you can set the key & scale and lock this in the sequencer. Say I did E Minor. When you go to nudge the notes, shouldn’t this be programmed to minor notes only? It’s a music theory question really. For example, you’ve set the seq to e minor, is selecting maj 3rd or all majors make any…

I pulled out the wifi module, inserted the adapter and ssd 512 gb. I formatted it in exFAT beforehand and loaded Kontakt tools onto it. The disk was detected, the tools load quickly, since the read speed is now about 1500 mb per second instead of 60 - usb 2.0. If anyone is interested, join in! I have made my contribution…
Hey all, sorry for the long post but I want to get this right. I use a MBP - a 2019 i9 with 32GB RAM, a 1TB SSD and 4 x Thunderbolt 3 ports (USB-C). It's still great at running Logic Pro with my small but beloved collection of NI goodies (Battery 4, Monark, Sanner XT and a few others). As a new Komplete 15 CE owner, I now…
Hi all - any recommendations for a bluetooth compatibale or a small portable speaker to connect with Kontrol Z1 at small parties / rooftops etc
Encouraged by the product team's post, I've recently built a very small helper app (browser based), to give a simple front-end to things that I used to do via editing the .kmt files by hand. (Update 2025-03-20: Added a field for the MIDI output preference in support of the firmware upgrade released in March 2025). This…
Hey, here’s to the synths, focusing on the UI and workflow. Most favoured (imo). MASSIVE - titles the channel according to preset (as Alchemy does on Logic) MASSIVE X - theme options SUPER 8 - more streamlined accelerated sound editing MASSIVE, title’s the track according to the name of preset, in turn also titles midi…
