For instance, you can take a collection of piano samples, add them to the interface, and edit them so that the sound is as desired. Music producers can thus create their instruments and edit them without leaving the software used for composing music. Obviously, you would need to take into account whether or not the price is affordable in your case. If you are a professional, Kontakt Full has to be seriously considered because it is a very affordable option, given all that is included.
Kontakt is not a DAW. You use it to edit or use samples inside your music production software. DAW applications are used to edit, record, arrange, produce, work with MIDI, and output audio files among many other features! Both Kontakt Full and Kontakt Player are very useful for composers and even music production professionals.
Choosing between the two is all about your needs and current skill level. However, we have to highlight the fact that Kontakt Full is superior. If you are serious about making music and you can afford it, the investment is more than worth it. Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.

Messages: 7. I am in the same boat. I learned to use the demo and I was ready to buy the full version this spring. But I didn't see any sale, so do we have to wait for a summer sale?
Messages: I checked all thru summer I finally ended-up getting half-off - but it didn't happen 'til the end of November. Last edited: Apr 24, Perhaps memorial or 4th of July sales? ProDigit , May 1, NI is not an American company so they don't really celebrate 4th of July.
EvilDragon , May 1, Messages: 1. If you are eligible for crossgrade, you can get it for during summer sale. But, if you are a professional looking for a sample with great features, then you might want to try the full version or look elsewhere. This free version, although works great, comes with various limitation when it comes to function. Its compatible libraries are also restricted. All in all, this app only works for casual users. Have you tried Kontakt 5 Player?

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device.
Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:.
We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected. Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives. It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program. Whereas Delay Lama was monophonic, had one fixed waveform, no envelopes or filters, and sounded and I say this with the greatest affection untameably raucous, Kontakt offers all the facilities you need to sculpt any sample into a musically useful sonic chatterbox.
The two variations of Formant filter differ in that Formant 1 is the more severe of the two, with a sharper, more focused effect. For a list of the new filters, see the 'New Filter Types' box. The sampler engine receives three new playback modes. Looped samples often came off badly loop points were usually thrown off kilter and even mild speed variations could sound grainy and distorted, especially when slowing things down.
Naturally, I tested Time Machine Pro with a variety of material, and found the results to be variable but generally impressive. Percussively oriented material coped a little better with wider speed variations.
Nevertheless, the step up in quality from the older Time Machine modes is patently obvious. The Solid Bus Compressor, with its handy gain reduction meter on the right. The Mix knob adjusts from a dry to a fully compressed signal, with parallel compression occurring at all settings in between. The new SP Machine and MPC60 Machine engines aim to reproduce the sound quality and playback characteristics of two vintage drum machines made by Emu and Akai respectively.
Curious to discover more, I compared the effect of the two engines on drum sounds. However, I didn't observe any obvious change in pitch behaviour, as alluded to in the documentation. Comparing their effect on instrument samples, it became apparent that the loop points of looped sounds were being slightly altered — a click here, a buzz there.
Even more interesting were the strange additional harmonics creeping in when playing back sine-wave samples at certain pitches, notably with the SP engine. I can only assume there's some sort of aliasing going on, which no doubt gives the SP its signature sound. Aside from the bright quality of the MPC60, any other significant tonal differences when applied to drums aliasing notwithstanding were not overtly obvious to me, despite donning my best bat's ears.
The Transient Master controls. Four new effects have joined the Kontakt fold. Controls for Threshold, Attack 0. This compressor sounds good on pretty much anything, and really comes into its own when used with drums.
The Transient Master is not a male instructor on a temporary supply-teaching job, but a tool for sculpting the dynamic shape of percussive sounds.
