Where do I start with Komplete ?

jkpalmer

Hi. I am a Komplete novice. I am overwhelmed with all the "software pieces" and trying to understand where to start with learning how to configure and use the hardware with my DAW.

I have an Apple computer running Mac OS X 11.7.3 with Logic Pro 10.7.4

I have a Komplete Kontrol A25 keyboard connected to my computer via USB that I purchased a couple of years ago, but haven't had the opportunity to focus on using the NI products with Logic Pro until just recently.

So, I updated my Native Access software and all the products that needed to be updated.

Quickly, I found myself asking "Now what?"

How do I become familiar with the NI products and using them with Logic Pro and going through an organized learning process with an approach for teaching complete novice?

Help greatly appreciated.

I don't know where to start in explaining.

At it's root there are 3 things. Kontakt, Reaktor and standalone synths that operate as plugins, such as, Massive, Monark, FM8. DId you upgrade or are you using 'Komplete Select'?

You could jump right in with Komplete Kontrol software as your main plugin, but I think operating any of the plugins independently at first is a better introduction.

Your controller is optimized to work seamlessly with KK, so probably your best bet.
