KONTAKT 5 includes a rich and diverse sound library with eight stunning Instrument Collections: Choir, Orchestral, World, Vintage, Band, Synth, Urban Beats and the new RETRO MACHINES MKII. In total, you get well over 1,000 different instruments, with over 43 GB of samples, all recorded and processed with meticulous attention to detail and quality. Every instrument group has its own Performance View — a clear, well-defined user interface, which puts all the important instrument controls up-front. This gives you a super-fast and efficient workflow, and makes it easy to manage the vast range of instruments on offer. Playing highly-responsive instruments is one thing — tweaking, editing and creating instruments is another: KONTAKT 5 gives you both. With a detailed yet consistently straightforward interface, you can easily edit, loop, slice and time-stretch your sounds, pitch shift in real time or tempo-sync with the powerful Wave Editor. 64 integrated effects provide a universal sound design toolset, brought to life by the powerful KONTAKT 5 sound engine with full surround sound support. For deep editing, go under the hood and draw your own custom envelopes directly into the sample waveform. Or use step sequencers, flex envelopes and the new filters and effects to take your sound to entirely new places.
KONTAKT 5 delivers a number of large-scale enhancements, extending the creative power of the industry standard sampler further than ever before.
SOLID G-EQ*
An authentic re-interpretation of a classic studio effect— a uniquely clean and musical 4-band EQ switchable to shelf on the low and high bands, plus two full parametric mid-bands.
SOLID BUS COMP*
Also available as a fully-fledged product in its own right, this virtual reproduction of a legendary compressor adds presence and drive without blurring the detail. Though traditionally used to "glue a mix together", it's not just for bus compression!
TRANSIENT MASTER*
Another premium-grade effect, also available separately — TRANSIENT MASTER is an incredibly musical and versatile tool for re-shaping any kind of percussive sound. Make a sound hit harder, or shorten the resonance tail of a sound that rings too long. Bring instruments to the front of the mix or smooth out spikiness.
TAPE SATURATOR
By simulating the natural, harmonic compression of analog tape, the TAPE SATURATOR adds a pleasing warmth to your sound. And pushed a little harder, it delivers a smooth, organic overdrive.
* These pro-league effects are also available as fully fledged individual products - but you have them already included here in KONTAKT 5.
KONTAKT 5 enhances your creative sound design palette with 37 new, high-quality filters, developed by the creative mastermind behind MASSIVE. The range covers the whole spectrum from classic state variable low-pass filters to avant-garde formant filters, and nine of the new additions employ groundbreaking adaptive resonance technology. These 'AR' filters manage resonance peaks automatically — like an intelligent limiter inside the instrument — to avoid sudden harshness, unpleasant volume bursts, and unwanted distortion.
KONTAKT 5 offers vintage sample modes, straight from the MPC school of beatmaking. These re-create the unique sound and feel of the MPC60 and the SP1200, and are authentic enough to bring a nostalgic tear to the eyes of veteran beatheads everywhere. The algorithms used come from MASCHINE.
An important addition in KONTAKT 5 is the new Time Machine Pro algorithm*, providing super-high-quality time-stretching — particularly suited to melodic and tonal material. Use Time Machine Pro for complete audio fidelity and imperceptible tempo-changes with all harmonic content intact.
*Algorithm developed by zPlane for Native Instruments.
16 CHANNEL BUS SYSTEM
The new 16- bus system introduces comprehensive routing options with integrated insert and send effects. This is a powerful tool for creating detailed effects chains within an instrument. For example, when building a drum kit, you might want to use completely different effects on the kick, toms and snare, while still sending the whole kit to a stereo master channel. Now you can.
MIDI FILE SUPPORT
KONTAKT 5 provides a new feature in the Kontakt Script Processor: the MIDI file player. Useful for creating instruments that can play patterns, loops and grooves as opposed to single notes. As used in STUDIO DRUMMER’s groove library, which provides over 3,500 exclusive beats and fills as production-ready MIDI patterns.
