NKS User Library

Thank you Kymeia. I've done a few and was only going to save my favourites, but I'll try to do the full set and post. While I am posting, I just want to thank you for all the work you have done on the nks templates. Very, very grateful.

 

It's not a bad strategy to just save out favourites if you can only do it one-by-one. I do that a lot of the time myself, lot of hard work to save a whole bank especially when you know you won't use most of it I question whether it is worth the effort. That's why I tend to save banks I made myself as at least I know they are usable for my music. Leave the batch stuff to the people able to script

 

Not sure if anybody did a template for Pro-53... I jBridged mine so that KK/Maschine can see it, and did a nice 9-page template for it that covers most controls (except master tune, A-440, and voice count, which is unfortunately not automatable - for good reason, though).

Here it is!

 

Thanks EvilDragon. One of my favorites Vsti. When I find a little free time I will rip the factory presets to nksf (with previews of course)

 

If anyone is able to create previews for my Padshop Pro bank I would be very grateful.

It's here

Christos you are a phenomenon! are already inside the presets folder ready to drag

Thank you very much

I can try in the evening, but think our greek friend christos is much faster. Kwill be his secret in which way he is so fast)

 

Thank. Unfortunately Christos doesn't have Padshop Pro, I am looking into ways to do this sort of thing myself but I have no experience with scripting.

 

So i will do in the evening.

 

Awesome! Lemme know when you do

But before that - do you find controller pages that I did logical?

Did a bit more work for Pro-53 (NKS graphics and metadata). Unpack the "image" archive to NI Resources\image, unpack the "dist_database" to NI Resources\dist_database (NOT in a subfolder named "native instruments", it won't work then).







EDIT: A better color.json value is c36a0f, after all.

 

Hi. Firstly I really want to say a huge, huge thank you to those people creating NKS presets for synths that don't have them by default. I'm a blind Komplete Kontrol user, and I couldn't do half of what I do, without help from this community. that's no hyperbole, no BS, just cold, hard truth.
Synths like Hybrid3, Keyscape, Omnisphere, Korg Legacy etc that aren't NKS-ready out of the box are the kinds of things I want to use, and only by finding this community and FreeLance Soundlabs have I been able to do that. Truly, I want to say keep up the fantastic work, and never, ever feel like any of you here, are not appreciated, or that people don't benefit from your work.

Now, two questions if I may.

1. I'm happy to pay for the time taken, but is there anybody here that would be happy to create NKS patches for Arturia Analog Lab 3? I have the patches for 2, but was upgraded freely (not sure why) to 3 one day when I opened the service center thing, and lost access to Analog Lab 2. Given how many patches there are to make and how much time this takes, if there's any monetary compensation needed to achieve this, please just let me know. Time is money and effort is appreciated.

2. I don't want this to be my first post and have it deleted for advertising/spamming, so I'm not posting links at this time, but I've done a series of videos on how, as a blind musician, I use Komplete in my studio, and a lot of the time of course it's with these third-party NKS presets. I wanted to share that link here, but as I say, not without permission from moderators. This is purely for the purposes of demonstration only, not to promote or advertise what I'm doing, that's rude and unnecessary, and possibly not even relevant to this thread, so I'm asking for permission to post, instead of posting outright. Thanks in advance for any answers.

Andre

 

Thankyou very much

 

Hi if you have the original NKS patches by JHorology for Analog Lab 2 they almost all still work with Analog Lab 3 - just not with the new synths.

Please start a thread with your tutorials, it is so important that accessibility is promoted for audio applications and this would be very useful - thanks

 

For me it would be great to see your working here. So hope you have already the ok. Best wishes yuma

 

Hi Andre

I know you emailed me about this and I didn't have Analog Lab 3 installed but I just checked my Arturia Service Centre and have it as an installable option (I really don't use Arturia much) so let me have a look at it and see if I can do anything to get it working. The only thing is I only have V collection 5 and have no real interest to update to 6 (unless there is a demand for V6 analogue Lab so for V6 owners it wouldn't cover the latest synths.

Please also post your video links in a thread, Andre is an awesome keyboard player and great to see how NKS can open sounds up so easily for a blind user to allow such playing. Wish I could play half that good myself.

 

Analog Lab 3 includes the latest synth patches and they will play even if you don't own them. Arturia will be making them all NKS anyway at some point but probably not Analog Lab 3 so an NKS library for that would be very welcome.

 

Hi. I'm such a noob I don't know how to start a new thread, so if this post does get deleted, I apologize in advance. Going to post three links here.

The first, was when I was featured on NI's own blog, hopefully will be interesting to you all. I talk about how I got into Komplete in the first place.
https://blog.native-instruments.com/talking-keyboards-with-andre-louis/

Second, a playlist to a series of ongoing videos I'm creating, making heavy use of first and third-party plugins being run inside of Komplete and Logic Pro X.
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLajmu-AM8Z8zMvgwjcb_qz2LdukqKE0q9

Lastly, and hopefully the most interesting, how I use Komplete in the studio myself. It's part of the above playlist, but I feel this is the most relevant, especially to you amazing NKS-creators, who quite frankly, without, I couldn't do what I'm doing.



Do you know, out of all the plugins I have, only SONiVOX expose their presets to Logic in an easy-to-use manner, with left/right bracket '[]' in the plugin window? With something like Hybrid3, XPand!2, Strike, Structure and *all* the Korg Legacy products, if you're blind as I am, you simply *cannot* use these plugins without the help of Komplete. Manufacturers don't write the I dono, 5-10 lines of code necessary to expose their patches to the DAW, so I'm stuck half the time when I buy a new plugin, using just one patch, or clicking the mouse randomly in hopes of having random success. That's no way to work really.
With the help of Komplete however, this becomes a much different story, so if you ever feel bored, not valued, unwanted, think again.

Again, my heartfelt thanks to everybody here. You don't know just how many lives you've touched by making presets for synths. There's more than 50 visually impaired musicians worldwide using your presets on a day-to-day basis, and I'm proud to be a part of it.

 

Andre if you're a Logic user there are aupreset versions of many of the plugins you mention available created by people like myself that will expose them to the DAW and presumably also screen readers (did a load of this before Komplete came out - I posted them in the old Logic users group years ago)

Here are some for some of the Air plugins - there are some for Korg too - I didn't make those though but can look them out for you if you want
