Kontakt Script to play_note() with keyswitch
I need a script to retrigger a held note when a keyswitch is depressed to change the group. I'm surprised this isn't a standard function to allow changing articulations with sustained notes, unless it's been added since Kontakt 5. The application is for guitar glissandos along a single string. The glissando samples are in…

Kontakt GUI replacement
I have Samples From Mars Micro. It has a great GUI that I would like to use for my own samples.

Any way to return whether a group is actively playing a sample?
I'd like my UI to indicate actively playing groups, similar to how the Group Editor illuminates the groups in orange which are playing samples. My first thought might be to store eventIDs along with the associated group number in an array and then somehow check when those no longer match up. Any ideas or something simple…
