    I've been reading over the requirements for Kontakte 6 and it doesn't mention a separate DAW or any software, but when I watch the vids they are always using something like Logic etc.....I've ordered one of your keyboards and considering learning Kontakte 6 but I have a limited budget and need to confirm whether a keyboard and the Kontakte 6 is all you need to compose, arrange, and save the music in a playable format for PC?
    It's a basic question I know, but I just haven't been able to figure it out and I can't fork out another hundreds of dollars for Logic or Pro Tools etc right now but I can get Kontakte 6. Thanks!

    You will need a DAW if you want to create and save songs. Kontakt itself is a Sample Player and does not have the functionality to save songs or export to WAV/MP3. There are free DAWs out there (And cheap ones), but I am not a MAC user, so I could not make any recommendations.

    Thanks very much for your response. I'm not a mac user either, so I'll look further and see what people are using for pc.

    To find a daw that fits your needs and thinking and all that isn't an easy task. I use cubase but there are many daws out there. Reaper is great too and you can try it for free. If I would start now I would go with reaper first and then buy it or look somewhere else if I realize that it's nothing for me.

    Thanks very much for the input! I'll take a look at those options! Since I don't really know what I'm doing yet I should start simple lol.
