Create your own Leap kits and explore others' creations in Kontakt 8.
Leap User Library now open
Leap, included in both the free and full versions of Kontakt 8, is your ultimate tool for manipulating samples, building fresh beats, and creating custom kits from your own sounds.
Chances are, you probably have sample packs gathering dust somewhere on your hard drive. Leap is the perfect way to breathe new life into them. And now, by popular demand, we’ve launched a dedicated space where you can share your custom kits and download creations from other users.
We want to hear what wild, obscure genres you can dream up and share with the community. 🪄
How to make a custom Leap kit
Check out the detailed guide below for step-by-step instructions. All you need is the free Kontakt 8 Player or the full version, and your collection of sounds.
