guys I am using midi controller and a PC, I am now planning to play live with a laptop (I will use VSTs for KONTAKT).

My question is ; How can I change sounds FASTLY?, imagine you are using 8 different sounds in a live performance, you will of course want to jump from one to another to spice up your playing but I dont want to do a lot of mouse clicking while playing :hihi: What must I do?

Thanks!.

2 words: MIDI channels.

Option - create an 'instrument bank' (it holds up to 127 instruments in one) and assign key switches to change instruments.

"8 sounds" = each on their own MIDI channel. One supposes there is a MIDI controller for changing MIDI channel. :shrug:

So you load each as an *instrument* in Kontakt.

Or, there are more involved strategies. I'm assuming 'sound' more or less equals an instrument.

The Kontakt multi's channel has to be set for 'omni'.
