    Hi no problem - you have nothing to apologise for. It's a pity that part of the interface is not accessible. I hope that someone here does have that plugin and can provide a completed NKS template which should make it more accessible for you.

    dear @jakx92 i checked it, out of curiosity and... it's extremely simple.



    Look at it, all it has is just 11 controls, which means just 1 page on Maschine/Komplete, plus 3 more knobs on a second page. There are no hidden parameters, or anything else. It is one of those cases that, a custom mapping is really unnecessary. In my opinion at least... :-)

    ...and here is the auto-map preset you upload, opened with Notepad



    As you can see (in the areas that i marked in red), ALL 11 parameters (plus a "bypass" knob) are here. Nothing is missing, though the configuration is not really optimal. However if it is really necessary for you, there are few members here who can change the parameters order with a Hex Editor for you. :-)

    @Sunborn Glad to hear it got all the controlls. I guess it makes sense that the interface is very simple, since it's supposed to emulate an old hardware reverb unit, which would only have a few knobs. I noticed too, when I loaded the nksf file, that the preset didn't save out the junk pages I mentioned earlier. Thanks for looking in to it.

    Kymeia,

    I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. But when i use the NKS presets for both FF One and Twin 3, I do get the presets just fine, but not the previews. So, in the end, I'm just flying blind about what I have to install and what sound it will make.

    Again, the gui, the controls, the presets work well, just no peviews. I've demoed many of your excellent presets without any problems. Only happens o em with those 2 FF synths.

    Thoughts anyone?

    I'm on windows 10, using KK as a vst wrapper for Pro tools 2021.12

    Thanks

    Steven

    Sorry but I'm not sure anyone has done a complete conversion of FF Twin 3 VST3 including previews yet have they? I remember someone doing the presets for the VST2 version but I don't think that had previews and I'm afraid I'm not sure who did the FF One either as I don't have that on my system. Still I can check out the VST2 version and see if it does or if not I can probably generate some myself

    You are not doing anything wrong.

    Both One (this, is my work actually) and Twin3, have NO previews! :-)

    Actually i have some previews, but only for the sub-bank Best of Twin 2, which i took from the old Twin2 VST2. The presets are the same so, the previews are fine too. Just drop them on this folder (Best of Twin 2)... It's not much, but... :-)

    I was looking for a couple of useful quick EQs for KK and Maschine with immediate interfaces and good sound and these are the 2 I like the most

    I know this is the user library thread so apologies if this question is a little misplaced here, but does anybody else have this issue with the official NKS factory bank in u-he Repro 1/5? It appears the macros are all bugged out (only one showing), but I do not have this issue with the third party maps or the maps titled Factory 1.1, or in Repro 1 case, folder titled 1.0. For some reason all of the Repro 5 factory presets are coming up as 'DefaultP5' Please see attached.



    I figured most of the best brains for this query will be here. Any insight would be welcome. :) Thanks in advance.

    i had the same problem with some personal made, commercial/free Zebra and Sylenth presets. I don't know how this happened but solution is simple. Just remake them! ;-)

    @Sunborn Ok, good to know. I am sure they were not like that before also.

    Thanks

    This is a bit of a test. I've been in contact with Newfangled Audio to get the problem with NKS migration fixed and they sent me a build that enabled me to convert the VST2 NKS patches in the NKS User Library to the VST3, with a new template created with the VST3. These WILL NOT work properly with the VST2 and I'm 100% not certain they will work with the VST3 yet as I made them with a different build than the release but if you have Generate give them a try - but I would suggest ensuring it is the latest version (which doesn't yet incorporate the fix so you may just experience crashes). This contains the factory banks (not sorted into sub banks by sound designer - if you want a nice sorted version get the better one from Freelance Soundlabs and support them) - it also contains a bonus bank of 30 mainly nasty and some nice patches by myself called 'deGenerate' - all with previews

    Also now Synapse Dune 3 supports VST3 migration I was able to apply the alternative template I made when it first came out because the one that it ships with officially is very limited - this is much more comprehensive - either overwrite the factory patches (but this will risk them getting overwritten again by any updaters) or put them in user and have 2 versions to switch between
