Using Activated And Demo Mode Libraries In The Same Project; Mode-Dependent Operations - Native Instruments KONTAKT PLAYER Getting Started

In demo mode you are free to make changes and also save them. However, please be aware
that any Instruments saved in demo Mode will be timed out the next time you try to load
them and will remain timed out until the library has been activated.

4.2.1 Using Activated and Demo Mode Libraries in the Same Project

A demo timeout shouldn't necessarily disrupt your workflow. Since the demo works sepa-
rately for activated and non-activated libraries (i.e KONTAKT PLAYER as application does
not time out), you can continue working with activated libraries, making changes to activated
Instruments and saving them. You can even save a combination of activated and non-activated
Instruments as a Multi, either in a host project or and stand-alone mode. And no worries,
total recall works so any changes will be in place upon reloading.
!
Saving a host project where KONTAKT is instantiated as a plug-in will also tag a non-
activated library timed-out.
