    Hi, I have Neo Soul Keys for Kontakt (a non NKS library).

    I know how to make an NKS version of a plugin that is not NKS and I´m trying to do it with this Kontakt Library.

    The problem is: When I load Kontakt up inside Ni Kontrol, the interface lags the normal Kontakt sidebar with all the Libraries, so I cannot get to the Neo Soul Key library and select it.

    Is there a way to make a non NKS library appear in Kontakt or to get the normal interface of Kontakt appear so I can save a user version of this Library to be used with the Kontrol browser??

    Or will all the Kontakt libraries you have that are not NKS have to die ???

    All the best
    Morten

    I think I solved it.

    Selected files in the browser and then found the Kontakt added libraries and pressed the Nki version of the library. It then loaded and then I saved it as a NKS. It works so far, but please chime in if there is a better way :)

    Can´t assign anything to the rotary encoders though, but I can load the main sound. Will the above solution change that. At the current state I can right click a knob in the kontakt interface and learn it to a midi CC controller, but not the Kontrol Software/Hardware...

    I don't know I'm a machine user and don't really use komplete kontrol, you should give it a try and see if it helps though, as it adds it as a proper kontakt lib, and so may fix what you are asking about.

    You click the little lock in the Knobs window and then you can edit them or even create your own custom setups.
    See this video (thanks to Matt Cellitti once again):

    That's not enough though, he also needs to create Kontakt automation for the knobs he wants to map first, then save that in the Konkakt instrument. otherwise they won't be learnable in KK.

    It is possible to show the full Kontakt UI inside Komplete Kontrol if this is useful to you:

    1. Click on the Mini Menu.
    2. Select View > Edit View.

    In Komplete Kontrol Standalone, you can alternatively press CMD+3 (macOS) or CTRL+3 (Windows).

    Best,
    Tim
