Possible to download only Kontakt libraries for Electronic Wind Instruments (EWI)?
I do not have a keyboard, just EWI. Kontakt 6 has gigabytes of stuff that I cannot use. All I need is wind instruments, perhaps a few others that can be played on EWI, but no pianos, guitars, drums etc. Is there any option to avoid downloading the stuff that I do not want? Wlodzislaw

3rd Party instrument GUI not loading in Kontakt 6.6.1

Abbey Road Drums Loading Times
Most of my NI libraries are on an external drive. I have noticed that the Abbey Road drum libraries take a substantial amount of time to load into memory. Would doing a batch re-save help this issue, or do I need to upgrade to a solid state external drive?

Kontakt & KK audio drop-outs (driver issue)
Just today I've started getting audio drop-outs with Kontakt or Komplete Kontrol, either in or out of DAW. It happens within minutes of starting to play. I used to have no problem. This is getting very frustrating. Anyone with any idea why this is happening?

Muting a drum through Studio Drummer mixer
Hi Folks. Usually it had been enough for me to use Studio Drummer "out of the box" with minor tweaking. Recently I was trying to assemble a track where I needed only cymbals out of the groove, which had snare and kick also. Naturally, I went to the mixer and muted kick and snare... however, they still could be heard. The…

Choking previous sample played when same MIDI note is struck again.
I'm working on a drum instrument, and I've been driving myself crazy trying to implement this functionality. Say I have a set of random round-robins for Tom 1 in one group tied to a MIDI note, in this case 42. This is working perfectly, however, I would like to choke the previous Tom 1 sample played when MIDI note 42 is…

How to modulate sample start?
All I want to do is modulate the sample start point for my sample map to avoid the shotgun effect. I've tried EvilDragon's advice from years back - 'How about using "random unipolar" modulator modulating sample start? Add it first to the "Tune" knob in "Source" module, then change the destination to "sample start".' This…

Navigating to group containing sample I just played.
I do a fair amount of tweaking of purchased libraries, but the one thing that is always a PITA is locating the group containing the part of the sound I want to change. For example, I may want to change a group of samples from DFD to TM Pro to stop the speed change across the keyboard. I've successfully done this many…

How to record XY controller automation using tablet, trackpad, or something else ?
Hello, I'm looking for an easy way to control (perform) and automate XY parameters present in so many Kontakt modules (ie, Thrill, Mysteria, Straylight, etc). I have an old Apple Magic Trackpad, an early iPad Air. As DAW software, I generally use Pro Tools or Logic Pro on a trashcan MacPro or a 2019 MacBook Pro. I'm not a…
