The Libraries tab displays all of the Kontakt libraries that have been installed using the “Add Library” button. If you can’t see the browser you need to open it by clicking the “Browse” button located at the left of Kontakt’s top menu. This image is probably one you’re familiar with. It’s the Libraries tab in Kontakt’s browser window. The information presented in this guide is applicable to most third-party Kontakt sample libraries but there are always exceptions so it’s important that you read the user guides that come with the libraries you purchase. Here we’re going to focus on the latter as those are the ones that you’re more likely to struggle with loading into Kontakt (the first time at least). Those that run in the free Kontakt Player and those that will only work with the full (paid) version of Kontakt.

I will make a seperate post later on how to name files In Kontakt.Kontakt sample libraries come in two flavours. The one last Important thing is you tag at least bank name for the kontakt libraries in kontakt first(unless you already have done this).I personally Tag everything because it makes it easier to find when working. Now if the libraries are not kontakt 5 you will have to do batch resave then rescan folder and they will show. Then Click on the all banks and you should see all Kontakt Libraries you added. Acoustic Legends Hd in my Screenshot is a kontakt 2 Player Library all I did was batch Resave and Rescan Folder and There it goes in the Browser.Īnd Non Kontakt player Libraries show Here. If they Dont then do a Batch Re-save and it should Show Up. Kontakt Player 4 and 5 Should Load here and Have A block. Your Kontakt Player Libraries will show Here. For Kontakt 3 Player and before you will have to first do a batch resave.This also goes for Kontakt 4 Libraries and earlier do a batch resave and they will show. This works for Kontakt Player 4 and 5 Libraries and Normal Kontakt 5 Libraries.

When Maschine 2.0 is Finished Your Instrument Browser Tab under user should show you Kontakt libraries. You Have to go to File, Preferences, Library, User then click add and select folder of Library you want to add.You can add more just keep adding folders of you kontakt libraries. If the Libraries are for Kontakt Player 4 and 5 they Should Show up when you add folder.
