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 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. Some of my favorite instruments were under $20, but require the full version of Kontakt.Jump to: About Kontakt | Standalone vs plug-in | Kontakt vs Kontakt Player | The browser | Global settings | Routing About Kontakt So paying $49 for the upgrade on sale (or $99 new on sale during the summer sale) is well worth it if you see yourself continuing to purchase samples for the next few years. Plus they don’t change versions every year like some other companies, Kontakt 5 was the newest for many years (to 5.8.1) until they finally released 6.
All of it making Full Kontakt a worthwhile purchase.
Even coding your own instrument GUI’s and selling them is possible, it just takes some work. But there are more advantages, fixing or customizing instruments to work better for your workflow, creating your own instruments out of recorded samples or purchased wav packs (I’ve done this dozens of times and once you learn how, making a quick instrument- without ksp GUI coding- is reasonably simple).
