KORE 2 – 226

KoreSound references the Ensemble file. If the path to the Ensemble is

changed, KORE 2

won’t find it.

KONTAKT

If you want to automate parameters of KONTAKT in a host environment,
you have to assign them to KONTAKT’s Automation Table. Refer to the
KONTAKT manual for more information. You might also want to read
the previous chapter: It focuses on REAKTOR, but discusses general
questions.
The Presets of KONTAKT cannot be changed via the host software, i.e.
KORE 2.

GUITAR RIG

If you have the same module more than once in a GUITAR RIG stack, only

the one loaded first will be automatable by the VST host.

BATTERY

BATTERY does not expose any of its parameters to the host software. The
Presets of BATTERY cannot be changed via the host.
