Welcome to KONTAKT
Welcome to the KONTAKT online user manual. Learn how to use the key controls and workflows to start making music with Native Instruments' leading sampling engine.
Welcome to KONTAKT 7. We are excited to share the next milestone in our flagship sampling engine. KONTAKT allows you to play back and process audio samples — but this does not begin to convey the full range of its capabilities. You can use KONTAKT to create sophisticated sample-based virtual instruments, process their audio signals with powerful DSP structures, build complex performance setups with extensive modulation routing, and gain access to a vast range of creative third-party sample libraries.
We hope that this manual will provide you with all the information you need to start exploring and creating with KONTAKT.
The following features have been added or improved in KONTAKT 7.3:
