Give us personal notes and tags in Komplete Kontrol and othe rcool feature wishes

Recenty I have been again favouriting sounds in Komplete and ha a thought: how awesome would it be to be able to create custom tags and relate them to certain instruments.

example: Chopper (Amplified Bank - Massive) tagged as "videogame retro"

Wouldn't that be awesome? What would your favourite cool feature be that doesn't exist yet in Komplete?

You can already do this for user presets.

And I wish it didn’t as it just makes searching unmanageable after a while as the tags get cluttered up with user created tags that don’t align with the standard NI tagging categories or anything else.

I’m always having to tidy up tagging from downloaded NKS where the person has tagged them using a different tagging scheme - it gets messy very quickly

I know it might sound cool to be able to give a sound your own neat tag like ‘videogame retro’ but if you want to search for other similar sounds using that tag you are not going to find any other than the ones you tagged yourself and you already know where they are. Having a universal consistent tagging system is the key to effective database searching (think of it like a library) as you know if you enter say ‘Synth Pads’ in your search you will find all sounds tagged ‘Synth Pads’ and not be excluding all the other sounds that have been tagged ‘Pads’, or ‘Pad’. It annoys me that even NIs own developers don’t always follow the NKS guidelines or that it gets through quality control

There are user notes where people can enter what they like to add more specific details

I always tidy up non-offfical tags too. Habit.

I think I have to clarify. The feature I'm looking for ("making user tags and notes") should work internally, similar to the "favorite star" feature. I mean that doesn't also import into every user's library, but just internally.

I would love to have the option in Komplete Kontrol to quickly scroll through the search results to instruments that start with a specific letter. Currently, the results always begin with 0–9 and then go from a–z. When you have 900 search results, you’re much less likely to choose instruments that start with letters further down the alphabet.

The ability to display the search results in a random order could also encourage more varied and fresh choices.

This option would actually be interesting for all other VST instruments and effects as well.

That has been one of the ongoing suggestions for YEARS (well actually a decade). It's pretty clear by now that NI have no interest, in fact they made the browser not even display constantly anymore so seems the opposite is on the agenda.

Actually I found out it's possible but a bit of a hassle.
