Update: Use this tab to check for available Library updates or crossgrade offers
to other products.
Register: All libraries must be registered to unlock them for continued use.
This tab provides a shortcut to the Native Instruments Service Center. Click
once to start the Service Center application. Note that Service Center must
be installed for this to work.
Forum: This link connects you to the user forums of both the library developer
and Native Instruments.
Support: Click this link to be directed to the relevant Support pages for technical
support.
Library Installation path: Use this to set the install directory for your library. This
is especially necessary when you move your library, either to another hard disk
or to another location. Please note that if you use your KONTAKT PLAYER 2
library exclusively in KONTAKT 2, you must set the library path here in order
for the library to continue working correctly.
Note: Only libraries that are released for KONTAKT PLAYER 2 (for example,
DRUMS OVERKILL, which you just purchased) can be loaded. KONTAKT
PLAYER 2 is not able to load general KONTAKT or KONTAKT 2 patches, nor
is it able to import libraries from foreign formats. To do these things, you
must own the full version of KONTAKT 2.
The full version of KONTAKT 2 offers other powerful benefits, such
as more extensive editing, and the ability to use all KONTAKT patches
(whether user-created or released for KONTAKT PLAYER 2) and mix
and match freely between the two, as well as import libraries in foreign
formats.
Engine
Clicking on the Engine tab brings up various information about how the
KONTAKT engine is performing. This information is updated in real-time,
so you can watch exactly how it behaves under various conditions (e.g. high
polyphony, high CPU loads, etc.)
Automation
The Automation tab allows you to assign various types of MIDI automation to
various knobs within KONTAKT PLAYER 2
• In standalone mode, choose MIDI Automation.
