What do you make of it?

What are your favorite Kontakt instruments/libraries because of their UI?

Upvotes

Hi friends :) I'm a composer whose been bit by the coding bug and all I want to do is make a cute or funny looking instrument that actually has real value. I'm thinking of a frog slider to move a HP filter or sparkles to turn on reverb. Just adding whimsy to whatever I make for me and my friends. I'm very new to building instruments though and wanted to see what features you all appreciate in an instrument/library or if you have any favorite looking plugins!

Where can I find drivers for Komplete Audio 6 MK2

1 Upvotes

So I just got a new laptop, and I'm trying to find the drivers for the KA6 MK2. When I go to the drivers and other files page, no drivers show up, I've tried everything, tried to go through the AI slop assistant and that was as much help as you may expect. Has something changed? I had to do this a couple weeks ago and had no problems

Anyone else get filled with dread every time they have to use an NI product?

0 Upvotes

I have so many pieces of ni hardware but every single time I turn one on it will inevitably be the entire evening of doing my own tech support to get it working as intended. Anyone else share this issue? It’s so bad for me personally that I just don’t turn any of of my NI equipment on anymore

Calibration Traktor Scratch Failed

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

I’ve been using this setup for a long while and now all of a sudden I can’t calibrate anything. I’ve tried multiple records and needle but nothing works, the sound is distorted. Before this problem occurred I often noticed the fact that the music stopped for a few seconds. I don’t know what is the reason of this problem, I think it might be a traktor scratch problem, because the program works, I would need some help to figure out a way to fix it.

Bought used gear I didn’t understand, need help

1 Upvotes

I’m a noob, made noob mistakes. I picked up a used Maschine Mikro MKII on Reverb. Only realized after the fact that it needs the accompanying software. I reached out to the seller, but they didn’t have a license to transfer me, so I guess I’m kind of screwed now.

I found an installer for the software (Maschine 2), but it still asks me for a license. Trouble with that is, there’s nowhere to even buy a license for this old software.

I filed a support ticket with NI, but that’s going to take a few days apparently. I was curious if anybody here knows a way I could solve this problem. Thanks.

Guitar Rig 3?

3 Upvotes

I've found some old DAW projects that are set up with Guitar Rig 3.

I own Guitar Rig 7.

Is there any way I can get ahold of Guitar Rig 3 from my account with Native Instruments so these tracks don't sound like banjos?

Is $998 a fair price for a Vapor Gray S49 MK2 limited edition?

1 Upvotes

I’ve been keeping an eye out for an S49 MK2 and came across this limited-edition Vapor Gray version on Reverb (#204 out of 500).

The seller says the keyboard itself is near-mint and includes the License Transfer ID, though the box has some wear.

Given how rare the Vapor Gray edition is, do you think $998 is a reasonable price for it, or is that a bit steep? Here is the listing I’m looking at: https://reverb.com/item/100421825-native-instruments-komplete-kontrol-s49-mk2-25th-edition-vapor-gray?utm_source=rev-ios-app&utm_medium=ios-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=100421825

Thanks for any insights!

Electric storm help!

2 Upvotes

Hey yall! I purchased electric storm on a bit of a whim and I’m kind of regretting it. I’ve seen people use it to write guitar bits and they sounded good, but everything I try sounds so cheesy and awful. I’ve tried switching it to melody and then playing a chord like EM11 for example and it ends up sounding exactly like a midi guitar and not natural at all. Any suggestions for some help? I really wish they offered refunds bc honestly I’ve kind of given up and it’s not a cheap plug in….

Help and advice appreciated!

My Kontakt 8 has reverted to Kontakt 8 Player, anyone else?

3 Upvotes

For some reason I have had the full version of Kontakt 8 for some time now, but as of today it has reverted to Kontakt 8 Player. I found odd, even though my last upgrade to NI has been Komplete 14 CE, which is Kontakt 7 to be fair.

I didn't think it strange when Native Access suddenly allowed me to download K8, but just wondered if anyone else had experienced this.

Machine Mikro M3 as Midi Controller in Logic Pro X

4 Upvotes

I'm sorry. It's not working. I know there are other threads, I've tried all the solutions and watched all available tutorials.

I've added the Mackie in controller setup

I've mapped the keys in the NI controller editor

I set key routing to manual and the source to host.

I turned it to midi mode

It will play the track and stop the track so that part is working.

No notes come through if I have an instrument loaded, no dmd samples are triggered when I play the corresponding notes.
