It can. You can expand the mapping and wave editors in separate windows with their own sizes.
It's easy to overlook this feature... for those still scratching heads:

Ooooh, that's cool... didn't know. Thanks.

I didn't know that you can edit the playlist to modify the window size presets. It's really cool!

The GUI is really dated, tiny little boxes with waveforms or information boxes, almost too small to use in 4K. Library sorting is a pain as well, all the GUI love has gone in to Maschine.

Any improvement for the komplete kontrol integration ?

EvilDragon · Post by **EvilDragon** » Wed Sep 05, 2018 7:13 am

What exactly do you mean by that?

Support for 3rd party libraries and less “plug-in not found” errors

EvilDragon · Post by **EvilDragon** » Wed Sep 05, 2018 11:16 am

The second thing is not really up to Kontakt at all. 3rd party libraries already work, though (with the caveat that snapshots are supposed to go to User Content folder, rather than within library folder)?

KK integration is a two-edged sword. SonicCouture is making everything for it now (incl. new 'upgraded' versions of the majority of things I have by them, even freebies they add on with a purchase). It means that the Host Automation list they create for instruments is fixed, you can't do a thing with it now. It also means serial numbers and Kontakt Player libraries out of it.

I like the snapshots aspect. I don't need to futz around with 'what folder' like that, User Content is kind of numero uno here as it is: Documents/Native Instruments []; which is where my "Kontakt Libraries" lives too.

Now it has been released!

Wow, unlike Reaktor 6 it doesn't look like anything useful was done to Kontakt 6. I guess I'll wait for a fire sale or K7

we waited so many years for such a small amount of new features.
wavetable is the only interesting one IMO. but competitors added it to their samplers in much less time.

From developer side that's totally not correct.

Yeah, I´ve never ever been so totally underwhelmed by a new VST-software version release.

Kontakt 6 - any rumors about release?
