How do I get a custom instrument as an official Kontakt instrument?

Axel Vapaa

Hi all,

I was wondering if there's a process for having your own custom instrument (that you recorded, sampled, and created with Kontakt) be an "official" Kontakt instrument? Meaning with the picture in the library (on the left), maybe having it in Native Access etc...

Thank you =)

For this you will likely need to be(come) a NKS Partner:

Here is the way shown you to build sample instruments. Is this enough?

You can import Kontakt instruments into Komplete Kontrol (self made and third party) but they appear under Kontakt in the user section eg

To make them appear with their own thumbnail etc they would need to be identified by Komplete Kontrol as a separate product in their own right, not specifically as a Kontakt instrument (as with the Kontakt libraries NI make such as the Play series) and editing the product field is locked to users (although I have seen attempted hacks using a HEX editor in my experience you often end up with corrupted files)

Hence the:
