It say's That it is compatible with Kontact on the box.Has anybody tryed this yet?

Use UVI-Extract, it came with M5 & there is also a button for it on M5. Reads .nki files just fine...

A quick recommendation using UVI-Extract within MachFive: If possible, copy the samples you want to convert onto your hard drive first. It'll make the conversion run smoothly (more efficient read/write time stuff).

I Did not see the button,Is it in 1.0? Thats the version of mach five I am running.

Look here: <img src="http://www.motu.com/products/software/m ... dy.html/en" alt=" - " />

You will see that nice big red area in the upper left-hand corner. In the bottom of that section you will see a magic button labelled "UVI". Click it!

BTW, you said 1.0 - there is an updater (not a new version) that you can download from the MOTU site.

Happy sample importing.

oops, link disappeared. here 'tis:Pick

errrrr... me no understand...

never said there was a 'Kontakt' button...

when you fire up UVI, it gives you a nice tabbed GUI, just select the NI tab (think that's what its called, can't be bothered firing it up @ the moment) and then just follow the basic steps in UVI's on-line help to import/translate your samples so that they are then available to M5.

Take that tip about bringing them onto your hard-drive and if you are planning on bringing over more than a couple of samples, read up on the batch mode.

Cheers,

I have tried dragging them to my hard drive as well.Has anyone actually imported Kontakt Files Succsefully??

Yes, I use Kontakt samples all the time - I use UVI-extract to get them into M5's format, just like I said b4.

1) copy samples from your CD to a temporary folder somewhere on your hard-drive (this is optional, but it will make everything faster)

2) Fire up UVI, navigate to your samples folder, follow the simple steps in UVI's on-line help

3) Convert your samples and save them into your M5 sounds folder

4) Go back into M5 an, voila! as if by magic, they are there, ready to be used!

Mate, don't mean to be rude, but I think you now have officially approached RTFM territory.

Cool,I'll give it a try,but what does RTFM territory mean

RTFM is a little 'code' for people who work in technical support areas - it's like 'UE'.

A support person can say to an unwitting client something like, "...looks like you gotta RFTM problem there, or maybe it's a UE, we'll get back to you tommorrow with a fix on that..."

Usually the client gives up or just goes away.

RFTM = Read The F...ing Manual
UE = User Error

Just me being cheeky - no intent to give offense!
