Only sample libraries that have been sent by the library’s developer to Native Instruments for encoding show up here and they work not only in the full version of Kontakt but also in the free Kontakt Player. The Libraries tab displays all of the Kontakt libraries that have been installed using the “Add Library” button. If you can’t see the browser you need to open it by clicking the “Browse” button located at the left of Kontakt’s top menu. This image is probably one you’re familiar with. It’s the Libraries tab in Kontakt’s browser window.

The information presented in this guide is applicable to most third-party Kontakt sample libraries but there are always exceptions so it’s important that you read the user guides that come with the libraries you purchase. Here we’re going to focus on the latter as those are the ones that you’re more likely to struggle with loading into Kontakt (the first time at least).

Those that run in the free Kontakt Player and those that will only work with the full (paid) version of Kontakt. Kontakt sample libraries come in two flavours.

3.1 How to extract multi-part RAR files.2.1 How to check which version of Kontakt you have.2 Kontakt (full version) sample libraries.I know a lot of people have been saying the price is too much, but from what I've seen the 2500 streets for only US$500 less in the states, the 5000 looks like it's worth the extra cash. Maybe I'm just gassing for and it'll pass, but it looks really rad. It looks like it'd be a whole lot tougher than my laptop too, and look a bit cooler on stage. The way the q-links work to make the OS easier to navigate looks fantastic, the inbuilt synth (I'm guessing it'll sound a lot like an Ion) would mean a lot of the synth parts could just get played internally, those that we'd done with hardware or specific softsynths that we couldn't recreate could just come from the HD tracks. We stopped using the MPC1000 because getting stuff to sound right was a bit fiddly, setting up the midi chains before shows was annoying and sometimes mistakes were made (drunk mistakes ) and there were a few parts we'd done on softsynths that really needed to be played back whole rather than chopped and looped. I've just watched a few of the MPC5000 NAMM videos and I've got to say that I'd love one for playing live shows! Same with old Akai multisamples, but the 4000 is the only MPC that plays multisamples anyway.Īnyway it doesn't really matter to me wether you'd prefer an MPC to a Linndrum II, I was just wondering if there was a logical reason for it. Older MPC formatted samples need to be converted to be used in any of the MPCs available new today. wavs in the sampler, but the actual sample files can be played back in anything that plays. pgm file that tells the MPC how to arrange the.

The app has plenty of other formats (NNXT, Halion, Samplecell, etc.) And when I first starting using it, NNXT was not available as an option, as Reason had just came about.Įvery MPC that's come out since the 2000XL uses. There is no reason these guys wont/can't add Linndrum 2 format if the demand is there. MPCs do NOT read AKAI formatted discs - though you can use CDXtract to convert them to MPC format. If all were not aware, there is an app named CDXtract which can take any sample ROM from any format and convert it to another format.įor instance, many times I will convert AKAI formatted ROMs into Kontakt. Sounds like you don't know what you're talking about. Sounds like you don't know what you're talking about.Īkai samplers have a format for samples that is proprietary. wavs? I believe the Linndrumm will be able to play them too. Other than that I dont know something about it just was lame for me. It just seems like it lacks features that the MPC has like its huge library of sounds that akai has had for years.
