NKS Requests

Yeah I already have it done (aas with the Vox and EP), just have to pull the tagging.

I managed to generate NKS with custom FX controls per-preset because Korg are so lazy in their plugins now that they did not bother to make the FX slots "macro controls" meaning every effect option in every block is a completely separate parameter so for instance if you have a delay on FX 1 and map the On/Off parameter then change that to a different effect, the mapped parameter has to be remapped. If you check the list of automation controls it becomes clear what they have done and it is a terrible way to do it. At minimum the on/off control should be locked to an FX slot, not to the effect itself.

So you can see that the controls available for each effect appear in the NKS template per-preset with the correct label which is nice, however will not work if you change the effect (requires learning the new parameters over the prev ones). There is no real way around this, if you change effects you have to update the mapped controls due to how Korg designed their plugin (this is the same for all 3 of the new ones)

And of course it wouldn't be a Korg plugin if there wasn't some kind of bug or problem and the bug we find in the Arp 2600 is even tho there is a mappable parameter option for every effects parameters (almost), they either forgot or simply ran out of availability for the Chorus "Unison Ensemble" effect for all 3 slots meaning it is impossible to even map the On/Off control for this one which messes up the templates I created that have that effect in them (which is just how it is)

So while it will be quite flexible in how the NKS presets load (especially for the visually impaired users that need control of FX on/off parameters at least) it could have been so much better but i'm not about to offer feedback given they have never once replied to any bug or suggestion I have made in the past (seems common from most people I have spoken with). While I loved the original Korg Legacy collection for the nostalgic sounds, almost everything released after that is pretty lack luster and buggy compared to anything else out there, including the updated "Korg Collection" versions over the original V1 versions.

Korg fixed the "no license found" today with a new version of Korg Soft Pass…. 😀

So ready.. 😎

Looking for a good Spitfire Albion Iceni nks library option. I think the strengths are the loops and having previews available inside Komplete Kontrol would help a lot.

If anyone is able to do a template of Aly James' SY-4X, that would be great. Unfortunately, I don't think he has a demo.

I have a bunch of Kontakt libraries done. FYI, the .nki and .nks presets should already show up, if not you can make copies in a user folder and scan. Sometimes you will need to resave the presets to get them to find their samples automatically. I typically don't tag and create controller mappings, so all I could offer is the audio previews.

Theres a bunch betweenTracktion/ Dawsome stuff that's currently not available in NKS. Novum is uploaded here but only has a template and no presets as far as I can tell. Probably doesnt help that Tracktion releases a new instrument almost every other month. Sugarbytes has maybe 3 or 4 instruments plus 1 or 2 FX that I can currently see in KK that are officially supported. (It might be possible that the Dev has since uploaded newer installers with them included but to my knowledge as of 2 months ago when I installed the complete bundle that was it). I was able to find a couple more on this forum but there are still several that are not (Mostly FX I believe). I can reach out to the dev and see if I might have missed something but that's what I can currently see. Maybe someday the Tracktion stuff will pop up on Freelance Sound Labs 😁
