Session Percussionist – Update Available!
Hey everyone, We’ve just released Session Percussionist v1.0.1. What’s new? This update cleans up some old behind-the-scenes code that won’t be supported in the upcoming Kontakt 8.4 (coming mid-May). Don’t worry, it doesn’t change how the instrument sounds or plays. Why update now? If you install Kontakt 8.4 before…
TIP Sequoia adds an extra step when installing NI Hardware (Keyboards or Maschine) and Native Access
I found when updating to Sequoia that Apple now requires many apps and processes to be added to the Local Network for them to function correctly and this seems to include NIHostIntegrationAgent as well as most DAWS, and things like iLok. (It did also ask me to add NTKDaemon but it looks like that is not required) So if…

Komplete Kontrol 2.9.6 was the latest version in which it was still possible to drag loops and one-shots into a DAW. This feature is not available anymore in versions 3.0.0 and after that.

Question concerning vouchers.
I purchased Kontakt 8, about s month or so . Afterwards, I received an email, informing me that I had a $99 voucher to use. I read all of the details, on which items I could use it on.

Learning MIDI in Reaper
Hello everybody, I am using Reaktor in Reaper and trying to assign MIDI controls to the knobs of my KOMPLETE A61. Learning works fine when I open Reaktor as a standalone, but it does not work in Reaper. Specifically, I am trying to assign the cutoff frequency of a filter to a knob, and it just does not work. Interestingly…
Any way to modulate Bus effects with internal envelopes in Kontakt 6?
Hi, by my understanding it's impossible to modulate bus effect parameters (I'm guessing this might be to do with the fact that the bus effects are monophonic as opposed to poly?) I was wondering if there was any workaround for this? Possibly a script? (I have little idea of how this side of the plugin works). For context,…

Which 'Input' and 'Output' boxes to check in Ableton 12 for Komplete Kontrol S49 Mk2?

I've set that to Komplete Kontrol S Mk2, and Komplete Kontrol - DAW for input and output as described in the article. However, there's also a large 'Input' and 'Output'…

Plug-in for device "KOMPLETE KONTROL A-Series" is missing
Every time I go to open up Logic I get the pop up "Plug-in for device "KOMPLETE KONTROL A-Series" is missing".
