I always assume everyone has Kontakt,my bad.......
NI should have some kind of sale for Kontakt sometime coming up again.........
fwiw There are so many great libraries from numerous developers that run on the Kontakt platform. Once you get Kontakt you might actually regret it because you might spend WAY too much $$$ lol

From getting the LoopLoft Drum Director, I discovered there is a free Kontakt Player VST one can use to load people's programs written for the Kontakt platform. Here is the link:kgdrum wrote:mikehalloran wrote:/quote]

Re: Plug-in Sales and Special Deals Sticky Topic
+1 on Konkrete. Good EDM material for sure, but I t's actually pretty versatile (it also has sounds that work well in ambient/chillout and even scoring in the Atticus Ross/Harry Gregson-Williams mode) and I love the way it's set up so effects are easily editable for each sound.
If you get it, let me know and I'll send you a little DP sequence I built to audition the sounds in each kit.

Re: Plug-in Sales and Special Deals Sticky Topic
I forgot to mention that, along with the free Kontakt player, they also have a free library of sounds you can also get to explore Kontakt's abilities with. Scroll down a bit on the same page as the player download and enter your email address to get sent the download link.terrybritton wrote:From getting the LoopLoft Drum Director, I discovered there is a free Kontakt Player VST one can use to load people's programs written for the Kontakt platform.

I just looked deeper at their free stuff, and unfortunately they all seem to require the FULL Kontakt, and won't work with the free player. Too bad.

Re: SonicCulture
Well, thanks! That's interesting! I am looking at NI's 88-key keyboard, so will likely make the plunge one day soon into Kontakt 12 as its dust settles.cuttime wrote:Kontakt Player will play any Kontakt files but will time out after 15 minutes.terrybritton wrote:Mike,mikehalloran wrote: They have some freebies, too.

Re: SonicCulture
That's the way that NI does it. Licensed libraries can use the free player; freebies and unlicensed libraries must use the full version.terrybritton wrote:I just looked deeper at their free stuff, and unfortunately they all seem to require the FULL Kontakt, and won't work with the free player. Too bad.
NI has upgrade paths for those using licensed libraries with the free Kontakt player. The $29 I paid should put me on that path once I have registered. I will explore that when I have some time.
Thanks!

If you click the bottom of that link, you'll find that Ozone Advanced is bundled with Alloy 2, Trash 2 and Nectar 2 Production Suite for $499. That's less than the upgrade prices from older versions of those same tools.
If I didn't have all five already...
