Hi, I bought two preset expansion for u-he Diva, which I run via Komplete Kontrol.

However, Komplete Kontrol does not show up these third party presets, but I can see these directly in the Diva preset manager.

Is there a way to get these presets beeing visible in Komplete Kontrol, even if the third party did not provide nksf files?

    Yes because u-he plugins that support NKS have NKS export. You must do this from the VST2 version though so do it in a DAW not KK unless you are still using VST2 in KK

    First you need to give the patches a bankname in the Diva browser by selecting them all and dragging them onto the bank field and filling out the bank name when prompted to (this ensures they won’t get mixed up with the other Diva NKS when you import them into KK)

    Then right click on the save button in the Diva browser and switch the save as format to nksf.

    Then select the whole bank and right click on the selected patches and choose export to nksf

    Finally update the Komplete Kontrol database for Diva in KK settings


    Some expansions do have NKS versions already though, especially u-he expansions do; which ones are they?

    Great, thanks a lot. Wouldn't have found this out my own.

    Tiny detail, in the UI the action was slightly renamed, instead of "export to nksf" it was called "convert to nksf"

    Hi .. I managed to convert the files to NKSF but I don't see the plugin diva in the user section. How do I upload the presets just converted to Diva? I use Mac OS

    Thanks

    If you used the default location for DIVA NKS and gave them a bankname as I suggested, they will be in factory not user
