The development is currently a bit slow due to personal reasons but a working beta is scheduled to be "released" very soon!

What is the official release date? This is a much needed tool for me.

Hi everyone,

this post is to inform you that the first BETA of "KGM" for Windows has been released and can be downloaded right away after you´ve pre-ordered the KONTAKT GUI Maker! The OSX BETA will follow very soon.

The BETA v0.73b already supports:

- buttons, switches, knobs and sliders.
- manipulating width, height, min, max & default values, unit value, name, automation name, automation, help text, persistancy.
- drag and drop items from the library to the project.
- exporting to a KONTAKT-ready script file (done automatically).
- image animation preview when hovering over an item in the library.
- scrolling through image animation frames using the mouse wheel.
- importing (interpreting) existing script (*.txt) files.
- changing graphics (*.png files) of existing ui elements on screen.
- green lines appear when items are aligned with each other (horizontally or vertically).
- zooming into the window for precise movement of ui elements.
- ui control information when hovering over an item with the mouse.

Bugs will now be fixed on a regular basis - please send bug reports to questions(at)rigid-audio.com

More information as always:

No.
Basically it´s a KONTAKT Script Generator. It takes out the hassle of defining and screen-positioning all these various ui_controls. Yes, it will work with Kontakt 4 as well.

Not any more

...

Or did you mean that the development needs v5.5+ but the result will work in v4.x ?

Oops. Actually, that statement is wrong. Apologies!

(Even if stated "for KONTAKT 5") - yes, the output will also be Kontakt v4.x - ready!

Thank you for the quick clarification.

I'm pleased that the GUI Maker is fine for Kontakt 4; the web page now says >>>

Could you provide an empty template? That would be very useful.

Already thought about that - will be there within the next beta

Learn working with “KGM” and why the KONTAKT GUI Maker is really an indispensable tool for everyone who is creating and developing instrument libraries for KONTAKT!

So, did anyone try out KGM? We would love to hear your feedback

rigidaudio · Post by **rigidaudio** » Wed Sep 14, 2016 4:55 pm

Currently having an excellent idea:

KGM now comes by default with a set of basic knobs and sliders. These can be assigned to alter different
KONTAKT engine parameters in an also included "template.nki" instrument.

This will feature all the bells and whistles that KONTAKT has to offer, including filters, effects and modulation stuff. So basically, all you have to do is importing / mapping your samples inside that template instrument afterwards and you are good to go!

What do you guys think?
