    Does Kontakt 8 make sending notes to separate outputs easier? I loves me some DrumLab and Empire Breaks but I typically want to be able to spread kits across multiple tracks in my DAW to process hits separately. It's pretty easy in Battery but has always been a sticking point for me in Kontakt.

    • @PULSEMusicGroup
      @PULSEMusicGroup  4 месяца назад +8

      I have to be honest Adam and check back with you on that as I have to do some more experiments with that. I do know that you can output but I have seen some of them here on YT. But one way I know is the basic way of going into Kontakt selecting outputs and then routing them that way through to your DAW. But I will see if it's more than this based on your question. Kontakt 8 has a lot of updates on it lol Greatly appreciate you coming through and checking out the vid and the channel! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

      @@PULSEMusicGroup Thanks for the reply. Honestly I'll end up upgrading either way, but I find the output UI/UX to be a little clunky. Thanks for the overview; loving the Leap concept. Lots of room for creative knob tweaking without delving into something complicated like Reaktor!

Then when I edit it's Adobe Premiere and some final touches through Cap Cut to just polish it off. When doing the content I go off now of just doing it and having fun.

    Kontakt is definitely going after Arcade and Falcon users! Now, it is easier for musicians who do not know harmony with the New NI controller tools that help musicians who are not interested in learning music. (The New Trend) But, these are learning tools also 🎉🎉🎉🎉 that the artist has to put in work. Now, even trained Muscians can use these tools to help with advanced Chords. Now, these features are needed and expected by the modern-day computer tech and musicians. We are living in an era where incredibly innovative and emotional music can be created automatically. Technology is saying music is a language that is accessible to anyone regardless of your knowledge or Musicianship. We, the User, either suggest or complain about what we want. Genuinely, they go make it happen sooner or later!

    • @PULSEMusicGroup
      @PULSEMusicGroup  4 месяца назад +1

      This is a great well thought out point family. And I agree with it wholeheartedly! I think it will all depend on the creative and how they can either revolutionize the producer and change the course or creating or just make it an easy way for people to just not be creative and bang something out in like 5 min. It's like a 50/50 depending on what side of the spectrum you look at it from. But I do know that either way it helps and grows the producer and for me that's a plus in my book. Always love the dialogue fam. Appreciate you coming through and checking out the vid! Pray all is well! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 ,💯

      @@PULSEMusicGroup I have used Komplete for 13 years and damn near had to become an admin to deal with all the bugs in the software. I used Macs and PCs. I believe NI stuff runs better on PC because it is resource hungry and Apple under specs all but its most expensive computers. Also, NI is horribly slow in updating software for MacOS upgrades.
      At the core of it, NI has a bundle of very old products that should have been consistently refreshed over the years. Roland is a good example of how to do this. Roland upgrades its platform every 5-10 years and then migrates all its hardware and software into that ecosystem. NI never updates its core products in a meaningful way and instead makes sporadic changes that create all kinds of weird bugs that they then waste time fixing. I have never had a six month period without one issue or another. Often the GUI in Kontakt or KK shows up blank or white for some reason. This is at least an 8 year old bug that has never been fully resolved by NI.
      Also, I purchased their Kontrol MK3 keyboard thinking it would at least have the same functionality as my MK2 only to find out it was missing many features and had an almost unusable character limit on mapped parameter labels (way worse than MK2). I cannot do basic parameter mapping in Kontakt despite NI selling the keyboard with Kontakt integration as a key feature. You can only access preset mappings, which means it’s pretty useless relative to KK where you can change whatever you like. I did not have midi template functionality until a recent update (1 year post purchase) and even now cannot change the midi channel for a particular template globally (has to be done one parameter at a time).
      I have just had enough of NI. Roland and Akai have built better ecosystems. Roland is noteworthy because the Roland Cloud really is what I always wanted Komplete to be - a very simple way to integrate hardware and software. I can buy any Roland device and know that I can work on device or on the computer without worrying about repeated and prolonged downtime. I can say the same about Akai, although the integration for them is not quite as robust as Roland.
      NI really seems to me to be for people who just want to scroll presets on sample libraries other artists have created and are maybe newer users that don’t have need for advanced use cases.
