KONTAKT PLAYER 2 – 2
from A=32.00 to A=3..
If you’ve used use a sample library where some of the notes are out of tune,
you’re going to love this feature – you can set a reference pitch, and tune the
sample against it. The reference tone can also be used for level setting within
systems, or provide a reference tone for tuning guitar, bass, etc.
Click on the Note Name field and drag up and down to select the reference
pitch. Turn it on with the On button, and use the knob to set the reference
tone level.
Load/Save
The Load/Save menu gives you options for loading and saving instrument and
multis, as well as resetting the entire multi (i.e. clearing the rack.)
Instruments and multis can be loaded using the Load option, and can also
be loaded by simply dragging and dropping the NKI or NKM file from the
desktop.
Note that when saving instruments and multis, you are only saving the
instrument/multi definition files, not the individual samples. Each individual
sample is encrypted within the protected monolith file, and the raw samples
cannot be extracted. In the Save dialog box, the patch + samples and monolith
options are not available. This is due to the copy protection of the library; the
samples cannot be extracted nor resaved.
There is an option to save the patch with absolute sample paths enabled or
disabled. When you save with absolute paths enabled, the patch file includes
a direct and absolute link to the location of the encoded samples on your
hard drive. In other words, the absolute path will reference your hard drive
name and the exact subfolders which the encoded samples are stored. This
is the best option to use if you will not be sharing this library among multiple
computers and intend not to move the location of the encoded samples. By
doing this, every time you load one of the user patches, it will instantly and
automatically find the samples.
By disabling the absolute path option, a relative path is used instead. For
example, if you save the instrument in a subfolder which sits alongside the
encoded sample files, a relative path will read something like "go up one level
in the folder hierarchy and you'll find the encoded samples there." Relative
paths are the best option if you think you may move the samples around. Be
