NKS Development Discussion

Nope, indeed it is not necessary any more.

An empty "vendor" folder and inside, all "product" folders is enough.

I updated my tutorials.

There is now a chapter describing how to insert pages or rearrange them in an NKS file. This tip was explained by Christos Adamos, but his tutorial is hard to find and I think it's better to have all the information at the same place. I got his permission to explain the method.

I wish you a happy new year's eve !

Here is a completed template and NKS for KORG Wavestate Native

https://www.korg.com/uk/products/software/wavestate_native/

I originally created a draft template which Christos Adamos used to convert the factory presets to NKS but I have finally got around to finalising that template, cleaning up labels and refining the order of pages to maximise performance features

Final version is in the NKS User Library/Current/KORG folder

Will do the same for the OPSix and Modwave templates in the next few days

btw I mapped the Joystick XY but for me this isn't working properly, if I move the Joystick using the mouse it changes the KK knobs but not the other way round - maybe a bug?

OPSix and Modwave both now have updated templates too (Modwave didn't need many changes but for OPSix I went through the whole thing and tidied up param names etc)

Same folder as above

Just updated again with a few improvements based on discussion with Mercury

Also the XY's seem to be working now for some reason

Just fixed the Pianoteq 8 library which appears to have a migration bug so I remade the template in the VST3 from scratch and updated the factory content with the new template

Hi. I notice you've done 'Factory Performance' but no Factory Programs. Is this correct?

I have Wave State here, so was curious about that.

Thanks.

The NKS patches were saved by Christos but I guess he chose to just save the Performances because how would you even go about separating a program from a performance? I suppose you could just make a single layer performance with no arp or patterns but Performances are really the main level Wavestate operates on as a synth.

Just so people are aware I am working on the rest of the UAD Native Signature bundle at the moment so no one wastes their time doing the same thing - this includes the Manley's and Distressor

No graphics yet (made but not added) - just wanted to run this draft past people because I am unsure whether people prefer to have all the bands up front in the template or the Master (central) section which contains gain for both banks plus links them - to me it makes more sense to have that in the first page as if you link them you only need control over the first channel anyway

Also I see no point in me doing the master version for KK or even Maschine as it has more latency and neither of them are really suited for mastering - similarly I don't see the point of converting the other more mastering oriented plugins - I will keep them for use in my DAWS
