Play Series / FX Section

I'm watching a video about Glaze, to learn more about the Play Series interface, and I've noticed the instructor can access his NI effects inside the instrument's FX section. (pic 1) However, when I open my Glaze instance, I only have a limited number of effects, and many, which I own, aren't included (Phasis, Choral to name a few) (pic 2).

    You need to scroll down in the menu. All the effects should be there.

    The video was done using Kontakt 6, which is using smaller font in that menu. That's why there are more effects visible at the same time there.

    All effects used in any Kontakt instrument are built-in to Kontakt and are always installed with Kontakt. Those are not VST plugins that you install separately. And you don't need to buy or install any of those Kontakt effects separately.

    Kontakt does not support using VSTs or other external plugins inside Kontakt. NI has just taken algorithms from their other plugins, like Choral, Phasis and some GuitarRig algorithms, and copied those into Kontakt. That's why you see those familiar effect names inside Kontakt.

    "Stupid" question but, just to be sure i will ask: Do you have all those plugins installed? If not, then of course they can't be seen, since they don't exist.

    @GingerHeart No worries! Not a newbie error at all! I had to do some research on this one and I'm working at support!
