Hello there,
I recently bought Komplete Ultimate and the S88 keyboard on Black Friday for around $1800. Because of the amazing connectivity between Kontakt, Komplete, and the S88 keyboard, I have been using Komplete Kontrol to load my samples. I mainly create orchestral pop music, but I’ve noticed that my projects are taking forever to load. I suspect the sample libraries are the cause.
I just upgraded to a new computer, completely maxed out—an M3 Pro Max with 128GB of RAM and the most cores possible. I’m running all my libraries off an SSD drive, plugged directly in via USB. Despite this, my Logic Pro X projects still take an insane amount of time to load—sometimes 5 to 10 minutes just to get past the initial loading screen before I even see the main window.
I know Kontakt has a batch save function—does Komplete Kontrol have something similar? Should I even be using Komplete Kontrol in my projects, or would it be better to use the Kontakt Player directly? I love Komplete Kontrol because of its seamless integration with my S88 keyboard. I have a separate instance of Komplete Kontrol for each orchestral articulation, and I rely on it for visual feedback—like the screen updates and key lights changing when switching channels.
Any advice on how to optimize my setup for faster project loading times would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
