Main Control Panel - Native Instruments DRUMS OverKILL Operation Manual

Note: Several parameters can be assigned to the same controller. This is great if
you want a single control to do many things, such as increase brightness while
increasing level. Also note that the Mod wheel is usually fixed at Controller
1, and Volume at Controller .
Remove: To remove an automation assignment, select it then click on
Remove.
Smoothing: Incoming MIDI data is "quantized" to 12 divisions. Sweeping
some parameters with this quantized signal produces a "stair-step" or "zipper"
effect. The Smoothing parameter smoothes the incoming MIDI data (through
a process of mathematical integration, just in case you wondered) by creating
a ramp between values rather than a sudden jump. However, note that higher
smoothing values also make the control less responsive when controlled over
MIDI.
Soft Takeover: Enabling Soft Takeover causes a parameter not to change until
an external controller matches its existing value. Example: Suppose a level
parameter is set to halfway, and a hardware control assigned to level is turned
all the way down. Without Soft Takeover, as soon as move the hardware control
the parameter will jump to the new value – in this case, something close to
full off. With Soft Takeover, nothing will happen as you turn up the hardware
control until the control is up halfway. It now matches the existing parameter
value, which allows it to take over parameter control.
Cancel: So you didn't really mean to assign that controller after all? Click on
Cancel.

Main Control Panel

The KONTAKT PLAYER 2 main control panel gives you access to several
controls and displays which are global to the program.
The upper four buttons (Browser, Outputs, Keyboard, and MasterKontrol)
toggle the visibility of these four areas of the program.
Note: If you are using the standalone version of KONTAKT PLAYER 2,
you can use the F1-F keys to toggle each of these buttons from the
keyboard.
The Browser has been discussed above; we will now look at the other three
areas individually.
