    Hi. I've made a custom instrument and have separate volume sliders for each group within the instrument. I want to replace the stock sliders with custom sliders. How would I go about doing this. I heard there's a Kontakt GUI Editor. Found out it's no long available. Any Ideas would be appreciated.

    nevermind. I know how. I was wondering what the width of the kontakt sliders are?

    IIRC it's 85 px. But your custom graphic can be any width/height you want.

    Is there anywhere the default pictures for UI elements can be found? I've looked everywhere in my Kontakt files and can't seem to find them.

    Not that I know of, no... Why? You can just create your own sliders and knobs however you want them to look.

    I just wanted to copy them and make a few adjustments (e.g., I want to remove the arrow from the default ui_menu).

    If you still have Kontakt 5 installed, all factory PNGs can be found (on a mac) in Library/Application Support/Native Instruments/Kontakt 5/pictures/
    I don't know the path for windows, but there must be a folder with all the factory pics too.
