Gate effect in kontakt
I'm trying to gate a bus. Multitrack drums. I tried the trick with routing the same audio to another bus, inverting, then compressing it, it somewhat works but it uses a lot of CPU and besides, I need more buses. Is there any workaround? (I can't deal with it on a sample or group level, I tried scripting the volume but it…

Kontakt Mapping multiple sample in the same key and ability to manage volume per subgroup
Well it's a very long title and maybe confusing but let me explain what I'm trying to get. I'm developing a drum library to be able to use with kontakt. I've already did in the past but was simpler, I had 3 velocity for a kick and for snare for example, and multiple samples per each velocity so I've mapped using different…

Script for Random Round Robins position w/ two microphones
Infant scripting child here, so please be gentle. I'm trying to accomplish something fairly simple, which involves keeping my first five groups (1-5 (mic A)) , and my second set of five groups (6-10 (mic B)) together via their respective round robin position (ie RR position 1 is used for groups 1 & 6, RR position 2 is used…

Do samples play based on tempo or need a script?
If I have a collection samples that contain a articulations which were recorded at a given tempo/bpm, when making a Kontakt instrument, does the Kontakt engine handle playing them back according to the user's current project tempo? Or, does one need to somehow use a script to handle modification of the sample to play it…

Copy one key behaviour to another
Hi. So, I'm playing a shaker (Waves factory Sharine) which has a hit sound on only one key (E3). What I want to do is copy the same sample/s to lets say Eb3, so I can play it better using both keys instead of only one. Another way to do it would be like I've seen on other instruments where they have a key set to repeat…

Global script? Possible?
I am looking for a way to make a script global. So far, it looks like I have to pick a slot for each instrument and set it manually. However, I came across this in the 'Retro Machines MK2' and wonder if it is a feature I can use, but not finding any info on it. See image. This would APPEAR to maybe auto load a script file…

Muting "layers" of a kontakt instrument
Hi. I'm using a instrument from the Kinetic Toys library (Automaton). Any keystroke triggers several samples. I want to use only one of them (its a "winding up" sound) and mute the rest. I couldn't achieve it with the library interface. I guess it can be done with the kontakt tools, maybe group editing..¿? but I have no…

Is there a way to batch change all the sample starts in an instrument to half?
Hi all. A few months ago I released an instrument called the woodland piano (https://www.pianobook.co.uk/packs/woodland-piano/), which was recorded at 96k. Unlike a second piano recorded in the exact same way, when played at 48k there is some nasty aliasing artifacts fixed only by playing the instrument in HQI as high. A…

Inserting or replacing effect bypass on/off (Question)
After I insert or replace an effect using: on persistence_changed $asyncID := set_engine_par($ENGINE_PAR_EFFECT_TYPE,$EFFECT_TYPE_RINGMOD,-1,1,$NI_BUS_OFFSET + 0) wait(1) this effect will always be turned on, but I want the effect bypassed immediately after insertion. Turning it off in the 'on async callback' is not a…
