NKS User Library

Kymeia · May 2023

Not yet - they are on my Radar. The only thing is they sound best when combined and using the CV so they interact

Kymeia · May 2023

OK these are Komplete now:

https://www.eventideaudio.com/plug-ins/h9-series/

all have a template and NKS patches except Blackhole which Eventide did themselves but then seemed to run out of steam or interest (maybe due to the glacial rate of progress on making use of FX in KK)

Folder is here so people can download the ones they need or the whole folder as a zip in Dropbox

Bear in mind I am reorganising the whole NKS User Library so next month will post new links so this is temporary

I am not quiet sure but, if you just drag & drop the archives to a new folder, the link should not remain the same?

They don’t seem to but anyway if the whole site is easier to browse it’s not so much of a problem and we will not need direct links so much

Updated a NKS I made a long time ago for Melda MPowersynth

https://www.meldaproduction.com/MPowerSynth

Unfortunately this doesn't migrate so I had to remake it from scratch for the VST3 - but I've kept the old VST2 template in the ZIP as well. This is just template and resources - too many presets to convert them all but tbh too many are not very good anyway (the result of randomised preset generation I think). Make your own! Also I can only map the Macros, OSCS and filters - much of the interface is graphical and not controllable.

Got fed up with waiting on Waldorf to fix NKS on Apple Silicon/VST3 so here is a VST3 template for Largo - presets will follow in time (don't need to post thumbnails etc for this as it already has a NKS version but it just didn't work for the VST3)

OK here is the Largo factory NKS fully tagged and with previews - maybe it's just on my system but I found Waldorf had not actually tagged or created a separate bank for factory patches so these are all done from scratch with new previews as well as I couldn't find the original previews (think they are mixed up in the old previews library by NI)

I'm not planning to do the add-on banks unless there is one people particularly like (or see this as I've given you the tools to do it yourselves) - I thought about doing the same for Waldorf Nave but it has nearly a 1000 presets! - too many for me - but maybe PPGWave factory bank when I get round to it.

Also I have fixed a lot of Softube stuff I have (the ones that come as NKS already) and will post those shortly, and am working on a template for Soundmorph Dust (synth is done but not fx version yet)

Kymeia · June 2023

Here is SoundMorph Dust - a rather whacky and hard to control but interesting granular - comes as synth and effect - I had to rename the effect version in the template to remove the brackets from (fx) which made it impossible for KK to find the thumbnails

Also just bought this as it's on sale at the moment and I've been wanting it for ages - a very powerful modular with a great sound - just the template and resources, there are a lot of presets:

What is the status for Spire 1.5.15. (latest VST3):

Stable in KK/Maschine?

Migration of NKS from VST2 to VST3?

JesterMgee · June 2023

I never had VST2 for it but I do now have VST3 and it is fine for me, the only things to note whihc have always been the case is the GUI size and selected template are (stupidly) stored within the preset data so the size/template I used to make the NKS files (which is default) is what is recalled. I may look at generating several versions of the library with a few different size/template selections but I also suggested to the dev to make this setting a plugin setting, not a preset setting and they said they would consider this as an option.

Thanks. Looks like I managed to glitch delete my Spire VST3 question 😂

OK I have finally finished the main work in reorganising the NKS User Library as it had become very cluttered over the years and hard to navigate, and also I wanted a clearer demarkation between older VST2 templates, most of which don't work anymore on M series Macs, and up-to-date VST3 plugin NKS. So the Folder structure is basically:

Current NKS User Library folder is for current NKS that are tested with Komplete Kontrol and Maschine post versions 2.80 (KK) and 2.16 (Maschine) - this is where NI switched primarily to VST3 support, and on Mac Apple Silicon support. The NKS in these folders are either VST3 only (which will be stated) or will work with plugins that support 'migration' (that is where NKS made with the VST2 also load in the VST3). A few include NKS for both formats. NKS templates and patches in this folder are sorted by developer/company.

Legacy NKS User Library folder contains older NKS, all made with VST2 versions, and we can't guarantee that all will work in the newer KK/Maschine and on Apple Silicon but they are likely to work fine on Windows at least and maybe older Macs. It's a bit of a 'pot luck' as many of these files go back many years

Then there is a shared folder for some of the contributors to this library to directly upload new content which I will also copy into Developer folders and a Misc folder for things like NKS previews, graphics etc

The link, as always, is also in my Sig and has not changed from the first post in this thread and its old forum predecessor. This reorganisation will probably, unfortunately, mean many of the previously posted links throughout this thread are broken, but the new structure makes the library much easier to browse and anyway much easier than using search in this forum to locate stuff, which doesn't work very well.

Thanks to all contributors including Sunborn, Christos Adamos, Vagus, Mercury, Diam and others (on the older forum) - I have setup a contributors text file listing them and had their permission to move things around. Also added basic information on how to install and create NKS patches and templates

Very well done! 👍️

I noticed only one mistake, one of my archives is in wrong directory, the Xfer Records LFOTool.zip. It is VST2 only and does not migrate either. You have it in the Current VST3 folder. :-)

Thanks - will move - there are bound to be a few things I missed
