Changing Output Preset Issue
Recently, I created a Kontakt outputs preset with multiple outputs (mono and stereo) set up to use for Studio Drummer in Kontakt. My DAW of choice for production is Studio One and I use Kontakt as a plug-in inside of Studio One, connecting multiple instrument tracks (MIDI tracks) to available outputs in Kontakt. My outputs…

I purchased Kontakt for a friend and someone I'm commissioning music for. The product key is sitting under My Products, but when I go through the options given to request transfer, I see no products registered under my account.

How long Kontakt on sale? / M1 compatibility
Hi all, total newbie-to-Kontakt here so... sorry if already asked: 1. I noticed yesterday Kontakt 6 is on sale - anyone know how long this will last? Do I need to jump on it ASAP? 2. There are always crossgrade hacks for knocking a few bucks off the $200 sale price, but I've also read that once you jump through hoops, the…

Questions about Native M1 versions of VST2 & VST3
Hi All, Can someone from NI put in simple terms which formats will be updated & which won't? I'm getting conflicting info from various places. Kontakt VST3 is the only M1 native plugin atm?

Velocities does not match in Kontakt/Finale
There seem to be a mismatch between velocities in Kontakt v.s. Finale. To get a playback velocity of about 60 in Kontakt (I say about 60 since I can't determine the exact value) I need to tell Finale to play a value of 90. This means that I can never play louder than about 100 if I set it to 127 in Finale. Is there some…

Maverick Sustain Pedal Noise
Just thought I'd post this here since googling led me to much older posts...in fact, in a defunct older NI forum. If you're looking to turn down / off the noise of releasing the sustain pedal and the damper, it's a bit tricky to find. I haven't checked the Gentleman, etc, but I assume it's in a similar spot.

Hello! I am currently working on a piano instrument and am trying to work out how to script the release samples to work in the way I want them to. Basically - I want the release samples to play all the time, regardless of whether the sustain pedal is down, but also bypass the current bug with Kontakt's release triggers…
