This means that instruments supporting NKS can be found in the MASCHINE Browser next to
your KOMPLETE Instruments. All of their presets are fully tagged, so you can use filters to
search for sounds from all of your NKS and KOMPLETE Instruments. When you load a preset
from an NKS instrument, all of its parameters are mapped to the controls on your MASCHINE
hardware in a meaningful way, just like any preset from your KOMPLETE Instruments.
NKS instruments are automatically added to your Library when you start MASCHINE for the
first time after installing the instrument (except KONTAKT instruments with NKS support, see
below).
The folders containing the preset files for NKS support can be managed in the Factory
pane on the Library page of the Preferences.
2.4.1
Installing KONTAKT Instruments with NKS Support
Third-party developers of KONTAKT instruments provide you with a folder that contains all in-
strument files, including presets and samples. Instead of running an installer, this folder needs
to be stored on the hard drive and added to the KONTAKT Browser by using KONTAKT's Add
Library function.
As a MASCHINE user, you can add KONTAKT instruments with NKS support to your MA-
SCHINE Library by dragging the folder onto the MASCHINE Browser. If you are using KON-
TAKT, the instrument is automatically added to your KONTAKT Browser, too.
