USING KONTAKT AS AN AUDIOUNIT PLUG-IN IN DIGITAL PERFORMER

Users of MOTU’s Digital Performer can use Kontakt as an AudioUnit plug-in.
These instructions have been prepared in Digital Performer 6, although
Kontakt may also work in earlier versions if the computer meets the system
requirements.

Once the project is open, go to the Project menu and choose Add Track >
Add Instruments...

[01]

In the resulting dialog box, click on the Unassigned pulldown menu, and
choose Native Instruments > KONTAKT 5. You can also change the number
of MIDI tracks to be added, if you know you will want to use more than one.
[02]

The Kontakt window will appear, and a MIDI track will be created,
transmitting to Kontakt’s MIDI channel A-1. When it is record-enabled, it will
send any incoming MIDI played on your controller into Kontakt.

At this point, you can skip down in the instructions to the Getting Started
With STUDIO KIT BUILDER section below.

USING KONTAKT AS AN RTAS PLUG-IN IN PRO TOOLS

Users of Digidesign’s Pro Tools (M-Powered, LE, or TDM) can use Kontakt as
an RTAS plug-in. These instructions have been prepared in Pro Tools 8,
although Kontakt may also work in earlier versions if the computer meets
the system requirements.
