8 NKS and Preset Tagging

8-0 INTRODUCTION

Repro-1 supports

NKS extensions

so it can be integrated into the Native Instruments

Komplete Kontrol

software or Maschine environments. Repro-1’s factory presets are

optionally installed as tagged .nksf files. User presets can be tagged before saving, or

.h2p files can even be batch-converted within Repro-1. A few pages of performance

controls mapped to common parameters are automatically generated and saved

together with each .nksf preset.

IMPORTANT: Presets saved in NKS format will not appear in Repro-1’s browser!

Although the Repro-1 browser doesn’t include search-by-tag functions yet, tags can be

set already: Right-click on Repro-1’s [SAVE] button and select

Tag this patch

CATEGORY describes a preset by analogy to musical instrument types or classic synth

sound genres. Each category has its own list of suitable subcategories.

Categories

are

different from the

Type

tags in Komplete Kontrol / Maschine – we wanted to keep

them as synthesizer-specific as possible. However, when presets are converted to NKS,

Repro-1 automatically maps the

Categories

to the closest corresponding

Type

The FEATURE tags offer a more technical classification. CHARACTER tags are pairs of

opposites from which you can choose just one.

Note: In Komplete Kontrol / Maschine, untagged presets only appear in

Synth Misc

Saving in NKS format

As mentioned on page 6, right-clicking the [SAVE] button offers you a choice of preset

formats. While the options

native

h2p

and

h2p extended

allow Repro-1 to save presets

into the currently selected preset directory, choosing the

nksf

option means that

presets will be saved in the preset location used by NI Komplete Kontrol or Maschine

(that’s why they don’t appear in the Repro-1 browser).
