Thanks for the info. Track templates is a great idea. I need to do some of those. Thanks again.

Just moved to Kontakt6 from Kontakt5 Player. In K5 Player there were apparently three configurations you could use: one was a stereo pair out, one was eight outs, and one was 16 outs. I had indicated those three configurations in the browser as KontaktStereo, Kontakt8 and Kontakt16 so I’d know which one to insert. Do I have to do the same thing in Kontakt6, or does it include all the possible ‘out’ configurations? Thanks.

Welcome! It was a bolt from the blue for me.

What?? I’m not seeing that with the K6 I just bought...

Thanks! Great info!!

So, when you log onto your account page and look at your products, the products aren’t there? I don’t know what third-party products qualify for a crossgrade price, all I know is that one of mine did. When I clicked on the higher price to put it into the cart, that was when it suggested I check my products for a potential class grade lower price.

Seems like a no brainer if you’ve never had the full version and wanted it. I just stumbled into it visiting the site on a whim. This is the second NI sale I lucked into. They don’t seem to be very much into announcing these things. I’m even on their email list for just this reason

I couldn’t tell you. I never had K5 full version. K6 will be my first.

I’ve been using the free Kontakt Player for years, which has limitations on running some of the instruments made for the NI sampler. I could never pull the trigger on upgrading to the full version for $399. A little to steep. But I just happened to visit the NI site and discovered a sale going on that let me get the full Kontakt 6 for $125 because I had an instrument that qualified me for a cross grade price. The instrument was Realitone’s FingerPick. Personally, I’ve never seen that low of a price available. So I pulled the trigger and upgraded. Bottom line: if you’ve ever wanted to upgrade to the full version, and if you have a qualifying contact instrument, you may be able to get it for a great price.

Just to answer Razor's question: Rendered at 44.1: File size is 73.7 megs Rendered at 48: File size is 80.2 megs I can hear no difference.

Hi... I've got a Dell XPS 8910-i7 desktop. It shipped with 8 gigs of DDR4-2133 MHz. Ram. 2 sticks at 4 gigs per stick. I'm going to go up to 16 gigs. 2 sticks at 8 gigs each. I found these 8 gig sticks on crucial.com. Specs: DDR4 PC4-25600 • CL=22 • Single Ranked • x16 based • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR4-3200 • 1.2V • 512Meg x 64 • My question is, are these 3200 MHz? if the RAM sticks were 2133, can I install sticks that are DDR4-3200? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for weighing in everyone. I can’t figure out any reason how/why a tune recorded at 44.1 would benefit from being rendered at 48. I’ll go with 44.1 Razor7, I’ll also output at 48 just to see if the file size differs and post what I find.

Soundcloud says: "We recommend you to upload in a lossless format like WAV, FLAC, AIFF, or ALAC. If you can, the bit depth and sample rate should be 16 bit and 48 kHz respectively." QUESTION: The song is recorded at 44.1 kHz/24bit. I'm mastering it in Ozone 8. I can set the sample rate and bit depth of the output. Does it make sense to save the mastered .wav file at a sample rate of 48 kHz? I understand the reasoning behind 16 bit for streaming. But if I recorded everything at 44.1, can I/should I upsample to 48 kHz for the render? At 44.1, the audio resolution is less than what recording at 48 would have produced. So is there anything for upsampling to upsample? Is there any "there" there? Thanks in advance.

This is a great idea!

Awesome! Thanks scook!

I see info on the old forum on copying such envelopes from one track to another but it seems one at a time. I’ve got eight I want to copy/paste to another track. Can I do all at once? Thanks. I tried shift/mouse drag to, in theory, grab them all but it didn’t take.

Did not try the bounce to clips. Anything that required a “mixing down audio” would trigger lock up, and CbB would hang. Was able to work around by recording to an Aux track to create a composite render of the individual clips in the track to a single clip.

This is the workaround I used. Worked great.

This sounds like amazing opportunity. How would one use it? I have Kontakt Player. Would that work? I don't recognize the other file types. Thanks, very generous of you.

Yes, as stated the 2i4 doesn’t have mix control.

I’ve got the 2i4 so I’ll give it a go.

https://masters-of-music.com/1st-gen-focusrite-scarletts-work-with-2nd-gen-drivers-for-lower-latency/ The above link reports that you can use the 2nd Generation drivers for a range of 1st Gen Scarlett I/Os and significantly lower their latency. Has anyone tried this? What were the results? Thanks.
