KONTAKT GUI Maker in development

KONTAKT GUI Maker has been updated to version 0.95:

- fixed: OSX Bug when trying to delete items.
- fixed: KGM could not find folders on OSX.
- added: Support for group Round Robin added for menu ui interface elements.
NOTE: See "library\pictures\kgm_demomenu_patches.txt" for an example on how this works.

 

KONTAKT GUI Maker has been updated to version 0.953:

- fixed: Bug when trying to delete items was still throwing an error.
- fixed: Bug when positioning items (sudden decimals in pos X / Y).
- fixed: Bug when renaming items (numbers within a name were omitted).

 

KONTAKT GUI Maker has been updated to version 0.96:

- added: Support for tables with on-screen resizing:



- fixed: Entering search terms in the library search field was still passing keystrokes to internal KGM functions.
- fixed: Wrong preview image mouse position when dragging a wallpaper.
- fixed: Library screw images only appeared as empty rectangles in KONTAKT.
- changed: The edit section in the KONTAKT canvas now displays edit buttons and fields according to the selected item.

The release will be mailed out this evening

 

So, we´re close to the official release



The "Action" script library window has been improved. Everything is now folder-based and sorted like "LFO, modulation, send effects, tables, menu" and so on. You can customize the folder structure to your liking.

Besides this, several bugs have been fixed, some CPU and drawing optimizations have been carried out, the image menu generation has been improved (8 different fonts, colour gradient, round robin support)...

Stay tuned!

 

On your website is states that 0.97 beta is now available. I pre-ordered and just received an email saying that I will get the beta when it has been released. I find that a little bit annoying as I pre-ordered based on the beta availability.

Could you update this thread with a current status?

 

Hi,

the latest beta is version v0.97. We plan to release beta v0.98 towards the 15th.
Sorry for this, the automatic reply mail hasn´t been updated! Thanks for lettings us know.

 

Thanks for the fast correction. I have received the download link for version 0.97. No worries on the schedule, I just wanted to get started with the beta right away. You should definitely change that reply email given that there is a delay between it and the receipt of the download link. At any rate, looking forward to giving it a spin.

Thanks again

 

Greetings! Any news on new BETA version?

Also how about support of:
1. round-robin (random)
2. group selector?
3. play group on release?
4. menu item that changes images on selected item?

Thank you!

 

Sorry for the delayed reply!

1) Round-robin is supported. When using menus, you can add an (RR: 2) tag. In this case two ascending groups will be used for round robin / random. You would need to set this up in the KONTAKT instrument yourself.

2) Supported. Currently only via menus.

3) Possible. You would need to set this manually currently in the KONTAKT instrument.

4) Possible, you can let KGM auto-generate image menus.

 

KGM has been updated to version 0.98!

• Fixed: Max value now handling negative values.

Hi R.A.
Is it possible to have 2 drop-down menus?
(For example have menu 1 play groups A,B,C and have menu 2 play groups D,E,F)

I tried to do this but kept getting errors and had to abort.

I basically want a menu for fader 1 (for BUS 1 output) and a menu for fader 2 (for BUS 2 output)
sort of like a mixer style design to mix both groups and control the gain for each as well.

P.S. Awesome product!

 

Kontakt GUI Maker has been updated to v1.1!
It features now 50 new action scripts, project management, and Kontakt 5.6 support.
