Saving a multi using Komplete Kontrol

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hi dear people, I would like to save multis in Komplete Kontrol, I have a 49 MK2 , and use Komplete Kontrol 14 Standard, for live performances, for instance Analog Dreams with Arturia Filter Mini and Choral as a plugin. But the software doesn't save what I made. How can I save the whole patch?
Any ideas how can I solve this? Since we have some upcoming gigs at festivals this summer it is important for me to save my work for live performance!! ☺️😶Pi-Qui

There is no such thing as multis in Komplete Kontrol - one of the most longstanding requested features

Yeah, sadly Komplete Kontrol to the contrary of how it may be marketed is kind of useless for live performance use as it has basically nothing geared towards live performance setups and as Kymeia mentioned, we have asked for the ability to somehow save the instrument + FX together for recall, this is something that has been a request for at least 8 years now.

Better off using a DAW or Gig Performer, ever Maschine (luckily you have an MK2 since they also removed KK support in Maschine for the MK3 too…)

If you can not do it in Komplete Kontrol then maybe you can do it in a DAW or use a VST host ? :

VST host such as Freestyle. There is a Freestyle demo but the download can be rather hard to spot (says Demo to the left on product page) so here is a link to the download page. Another VST host is GigPerformer. (Gig Performer also has a 'lite' version that can be had when buying from a partner shop).

There is also a free VST host such as Cantabile Lite.

I also found this VST Host: The 7 Most Impressive VST Hosts of 2024 (All Free!)

But I can not vouch for any of what I mentioned above here , neither for functionality nor quality.

@Djinn Djinni In NI's ecosystem a Multi means multiple Kontakt libraries inside Kontakt. In your case, having an Arturia plug-in in the mix would mean something else. This kind of feature is not planned at the moment. As an alternative I would suggest to use a DAW, like Ableton, have several instances of Komplete Kontrol in there, this way you can quickly access the instrument and controlling it by navigating your DAW tracks.

Hi dear fellow musicians/producers, , first of all thank you for your answers! If people have been waiting for 8 years for a feature like that and NI didnt do anything with that I believe thats stupid arrogance. Almost all the gear I use has a possibility to save complex patches I made. I also use Omnisphere 2.8 form Spectrasonics, Nexus and Serum and U-He and I have the posssibility to save Multi's! I think it is a really weak and cheap solution from Native Insruments not to provide professional features for profesional musicians. I believe that many users invested a lot of money in Native Instruments, buying hardware and software and get cheated by the company. I invested some 3000 euros, I have 2 49 MK2 a S25/49 and a M32 and bought some software from NI, but feel left in the cold by them. This is not good. 😡
