Kontakt Library Creator For Mac



Most Native Instruments sample libraries (e.g. the ABBEY ROAD DRUMMERS, the SYMPHONY SERIES or pianos like UNA CORDA) are designed to be used with the KONTAKT 5 Sampler. In case you do not own the full version of KONTAKT 5, there is a free KONTAKT 5 PLAYER version which allows you to use all the features of a KONTAKT-based Instrument.

  • It is because the company that created the free Kontakt library paid a licensing fee to Native Instruments. The license enables third-party libraries to work in Kontakt Player. The license comes at a cost, though, and for many indie sound designers who make free Kontakt instruments, it doesn’t really make sense to pay the licensing fee.

1. Finding Out if your Sample Library Requires KONTAKT

To find out if your product requires KONTAKT to run, go to the corresponding product page in the NI webshop and scroll down to the AT A GLANCE section. Here you can see if your sample library has to be used with KONTAKT.

2. Downloading and Installing KONTAKT 5 PLAYER

4. Loading your Sample Library in KONTAKT 5

  1. Open KONTAKT 5 (PLAYER) standalone. By default the location of your standalone application is here:
    • Mac OS X: Macintosh HD > Applications > Native Instruments > Kontakt 5 > 'Kontakt 5.app'
    • Windows: C: > Program Files > Native Instruments > Kontakt 5 > 'Kontakt 5.exe'
  2. The KONTAKT Browser's Libraries tab displays all your installed KONTAKT Libraries. If your KONTAKT instrument is not listed here, you can add it manually.
  3. Configure the Audio- and MIDI-Settings for KONTAKT 5 (PLAYER).
  4. Click the Instruments button on the Library's icon to open the different available patches for the instrument. You can drag the patch of your choice into the Rack. Alternatively you can simply double-click the patch's name.

5. Loading your Sample Library in a Host Sequencer

Important note: Whether you intend to use your sample library with KONTAKT standalone or within a host sequencer, you must start KONTAKT in standalone mode once before using it as a plug-in. This step is necessary for KONTAKT 5 to build its database.

To use your sample library within a host sequencer, you must first load the KONTAKT 5 (PLAYER) as a plug-in and then load the sample library into the KONTAKT 5 (PLAYER) plug-in:

  1. Open your host sequencer.
  2. Insert KONTAKT 5 (PLAYER) as a plug-in in your host sequencer.
  3. The KONTAKT Browser's Libraries tab displays all your installed KONTAKT Libraries. If your KONTAKT instrument is not listed here, you can add it manually as explained in this article.
  4. Click the Instruments button on the Library's icon to open the different available patches for the instrument. You can drag the patch of your choice into the Rack. Alternatively you can simply double-click the patch's name.

You can search our Knowledge Base to obtain more information about how to manage and insert NI plug-ins in your host sequencer.
