I'm back to irritate the room! As you might remember I have a GM sound set obsession so here is big list of freebies I've worked on or host. They are in GM order all 128 instruments + drums (with bonus instruments) and individually listed. If you happen to need a Banjo, Grasshopper, Reverse Cymbal, Steel Drum and Halo Pad for your next track and can't find them. Quick download and you'll have each in a little NKI.

Someone get to work and create a torrent library of all 350+ instruments (in GM order) and save me some bandwidth!

Little Secret I did this just to keep Phloopy busy!

cool post. thanks.

 

I'm not quite sure how to respond or why you chose to put this post here rather than as a separate topic. It is no great secret that as a developer (sort of), I support other developers and believe that a workman is worthy of his hire. I suggest that Kontakt on sale as I got it for 200 bucks is the best value in music software for both what it contains and the other instruments it allows you to use. It sort of opens a whole musical world up. Of course I also believe one should purchase Kontakt instruments such as the one you mention to support continued development of instruments. End Sermon.

Nkis are not just wave wrappers. Depending on the instrument there might be loop points, multiple envelopes, effects and any number of settings that are designed for that one patch you are hearing. Changing the wave files alone might seriously mess up the way Kontakt plays the patch. Also I believe some Kontakt instruments are encripted and you can't simply extract the monolith to its component parts and start changing them.

If you want to play with creating Kontakt instruments on the simplest level, mess around with this little instrument I made some time ago. The idea is it uses one wave file and you simple replace that file. Of course you can also go mess with the guts of the thing to see what everything does.
