Playbox - Great Instrument - but is it an abandoned product?
I LOVE Playbox - and have read many Youtube videos, online posts etc. by others that love it as well. Unfortunately, unless I'm missing something (hopefully!), it seems like it is an abandoned product. No news/comments that I can find from Native Instruments for the last few years :^( Anyone know something? Is it still…

Ways to overcome the C2 issue with Playbox
Hi there, I thoroughly enjoy using Playbox with midi routing to other VSTs in my DAW. Unfortunately the FX modul creates unwanted C2 note events with a velocity of 127 which makes the experience really bad. As already pointed out in this forum, turning off the FX module is a possible work-around, but it is a sacrifice I…

[Tips] Quick Hack for Playbox Users
[Tips] When using playbox I like to use the randomize feature a lot. This give you unique variations and possibilities that are endless compared to the stock presets.

Maschine crash/freeze when exporting Playbox sounds
I’ve been using Maschine fine on a 2017 MacBook with no issues for the past few months. I recently subscribed to Komplete Now but when I try to export sounds made using ‘Playbox’it freezes/crashes.

Playbox Future Updates
To those in the know... Playbox is the most exciting production tool I've laid my hands on to-date. The tool is a fantastic concept, the preset stacks are impeccably designed and trigger so many ideas for me. The tool has helped me appreciate some of the subtleties of layering, as well as exploring progressions. The sound…

Playbox Midi Output Problem
In Kontakt 7, I have selected in the options to send MIDI generated from script generated notes. When I do this with Playbox, it works as expected with the exception of it also playing a C2 note that is sustained as long as you press any key. It doesn't matter which key you press, it always outputs the C2 note along with…

Playbox Not Activated
Been round and round today, trying to solve this. I have Native Access 2 installed on a Windows 11 machine.

This is very…

Playbox 2.0 (Playbox FX maybe?)
First of all, I love PLAYBOX. It's a great tool for ideas and cool sounds, but the work flow could use an upgrade or two. 1) Mute/Solo the 6 sources individually. 2) Export of the stems Drag n Drop. 3) Function to use more keys to e.g. play your own chords (from C1-B2 or something). Keyboard Mode vs. Chord Mode. 4) Playbox…

A few thoughts on playbox - it's missing a few things...or is it?
I've been playing with Playbox - it sounds GREAT, the fx are great....but I feel like the interface is missing some key things (or maybe I'm missing something). I don't normally post stuff like this but I'm wondering if anyone feels the same way - or maybe can help me. •Chord lock - you can lock individual chords - but…

Playbox - can't scroll through Presets?
Playbox is very interesting, and I hope it gets developed further. One thing I find cumbersome is that (as far as I know), you can't use your mouse scroll wheel to scroll through the Preset lists of Instruments, Synths, etc. - you have to click/drag the scroll bar in the list window. Am I missing something or should this…

Playbox - Saving User Samples Across Projects
The ability to permanently save user samples across different projects seems very difficult. The manual suggests saving a Snapshot or an NKI file, but those only save user samples that are associated with a certain patch/sound. For example, if I've loaded 10 user samples in the User Sample area but only 4 of those make it…

Playbox Audio Mixdown
I have been playing with and loving Playbox. I just made a simple beat but if I try to mix it down to a WAV in MPC it makes a strange messy sound and takes forever to export. It is just the Astma Arps preset. All the other stuff I have tried works fine.

PlayBox missing features(delete and add new note to chord), chords reorder
Hello everyone! I've been using PlayBox for a few days now and I've really enjoyed it! However, while using it I have noticed a few things that I think could make it even better. First of all, there is no way to delete or add individual notes, this has been partially discussed here, but unfortunately this feature has not…

Playbox + Maschine MK3 (no lighting to see 8 keys)
Hello everyone, I just downloaded Playbox today with the Komplete 14 Standard, and I can't see the 8 individual keys used for controlling the sounds on my Maschine MK3. It's randomly on pads 1, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 13. Is there a way to customize which keys control the Playbox notes? I get all the same light color in…

I don't get Playbox.
Admittedly I've only messed around with it for a little bit, but even after watching a few videos I don't get the value of PlayBox.

Tempo sync in Playbox
Perhaps I am missing something glaringly obvious but how do I get playbox sounds/presets etc. to sync to the tempo of my DAW (Studio One in my case)?

Playbox - how to get a preset in sync with DAW?
Hi everyone. I'm new to the Playbox instrument and it sounds great, but I can't figure out how to get some of the presets to sync to my DAW tempo, or vice versa and I'm hoping someone can help. Maybe the issue is the time signature? To give you an example: the Caverns preset is a rhythmic one. I recorded a few notes into a…

Playbox user presets location on Windows 11?
Hello, I've been enjoying working with Playbox and would like to find and back up a custom user preset I build within Playbox so that, in the event of a catastrophe, I can restore the chords and assigned samples to the sample matrix, etc. Where does Playbox save these on Windows? A search of the entire drive for files with…

Playbox - can you export a sample or a sound for use on a full keyboard in DAW?
I am in love with playbox - and I have finally discovered how to recreate the lead synth from Shine On You Crazy Diamond - but to get it to sound like I want I have had to set each vertical rack in the Chords section to just one note, rather than to a chord. Which means that when I play it in my DAW I get just seven notes…

Playbox Crashes Maschine. MacBook M1 Pro
So I just got Playbox, and I love it, however after awhile when loading the instrument it will crash Maschine. The only thing I've done is change my sample rate, because when exporting a song with it set at 44.1 it would chop off the beginning of the song. I've changed that back to 48.0, and still crashes. I've tried…

Playbox not being installed after displaying installation successful

How do I expand the key range?
Hey all, Title says it all. I've really fallen in love with Playbox, but I'm honestly surprised by it's stunning lack of flexibility. Perhaps it's user error here, but whenever I load a new patch, the keyboard at the bottom of the Kontakt player (full version, not trial or demo) highlights seven red keys that are playable…

Playbox vs. Maschine
I'm seeing an incompatibility and not sure where to place the blame. :) I use a Komplete Kontrol S49 Mk2 as a controller.

When I use Playbox as my instrument, however, I get…

Troubleshooting Playbox not appearing in Ableton

How to Reassign Root of Playbox User Sample if it's been analyzed wrong? (Without Affecting Pitch)
I understand that you can "adjust" the root note, but that alters the sample's playback of pitch. Is there a way to reassign while keeping the pitch? Otherwise, wouldn't that throw off Playbox's understanding of the root pitch, meaning all chords containing that sample will be off? Or am I totally missing something? Thanks…

Playbox: Option to play in a standar way, without "Chord mode" / On key mode
Hi There, I like very much this plugin, and it's randomization options, but I can't find a way to play it without the Chords mode, there's a mono and poly but there are all based in "chord modes" (I mean "One key playing"). I would found interesting to have an option to play it note per note, in a standard way like a…

Playbox input overloads
I got the VST up and running but I have a breaking issue. When most FX presets are loaded and the synth tries to play, the input overloads and all the music stops.

Are the plugins from Komplete NOW downgraded versions?
Hello everyone, I won a lottery on Metapop Instagram - I was granted 3 months of Komplete Now for free. Today I've started my 3-month trail.

Hey hey, I'm super pumped about Playbox, been playing around with it and it's fantastic. So I'd like to get to know it inside and out, but I can only find a basic user manual online, which leaves out a few things. Any idea if there's a more complete manual somewhere?
