Ok, for now I will make do with what I have, and slowly in the future purchase ‘extras’ IF i need them. That was VERY useful informationĪnd yes, you are right it will cost me a small fortune to buy a few of the libraries that you pointed out. Big Choirs, Orchestral Strings, Pianos, Guitars, EDM, Epic Sound Design, and More. Take a listen and decide if it’s for you:įind Sample Libraries & Virtual Instruments - Kontakt VST, AU, AAX. But it should also be said that going down this route is all but cheap! Some libraries can be very expensive! Below are some of the main creators of Kontakt libraries. If you do there’s no instrument more suited for these sounds than Kontakt.
If you do not necessarily need orchestral instruments like strings and brass, choir, grand piano’s, drum/percussion or big band sounds I’d suggest you stick to the more general synths. While many Kontakt libraries can do these type of sounds also it’s real strength lies in the reproduction of acoustic instruments and the human voice. Like jaslan said, if you want EDM synths or similar sounds there’s lots of other stuff out there that will fully satisfy your needs. Where in my opinion people can discuss anything remotely related to Steinberg? He can be a sourpuss sometimes? This is the lounge. So I want to know opinions from people that use Kontakt WITHIN Cubase. Tip: do a search function on the web page (ctrl+F on PC) and type in the word “Kontakt”.I have seen Youtube Videos of people using Kontakt WITHIN Cubase. Since Kontakt Player is free, it will have slightly limited functionality and content compared to the full version, but many users make do just fine with the free version, especially if you aren’t heavy into composing for an orchestra full time.ĪLWAYS remember to check for compatibility when purchasing a new library, as it can sometimes be hard to find in all the fine print. It can be confusing, because essentially, all versions of Kontakt are “players” of sample content.
The biggest thing to remember: anytime you see mention of Kontakt Player, this simply refers to the free version. It will be a mandatory upgrade, just not yet. Many of us are able to get by just fine by still using Kontakt 5, however that will not always be the case, as developers take advantage of the new features and begin to release libraries that are only compatible with Kontakt 6. Kontakt 6 – This is the newest version of the Kontakt sampler, and it’s the latest and greatest, yet it’s benefits and features are yet to be fully taken advantage of, simply because it’s still so new on the market.
