?

Are you really interested in a tutorial about inNKX? The hardest part is to install it.

    There is indeed! It would mean to change the ranking number for each library in individual .plist files.
    I've already explained it somewhere on a Kontakt release comment section on sister site.
    On mac seems even easier than on pc, though, as you don't have to dig in the dangerous regedit territory. Rather in Preferences folder.
    I'll PM Ted about it.

    I've tried searching this forum quite a bit and haven't been able to find the ninct generator (perhaps I haven't looked hard enough). Could you kindly post me a link please. It would be greatly apreciated

    Sure, plists in queston are those in Users Library/Preferences but my understanding was that Ted was looking for an App…
    A plist editor would do indeed or even Text Edit but, if you have lot of Libs installed, is faster "drag'n scroll forever" :rofl:

    I agree that having a detailed tuto on how to install and use inNKX and Total Commander would be very useful. I have tried lately and didn't have any success neither with both mentioned.

    Thanks for the great idea and the offer :wink:

    I would really like to have instruction on how to use this or any of the tools that allow users to create files for kontakt usage.

    No, unfortunately TextEdit doesn't show this type of document correctly, so you can't modify this with it. I recommend TextWrangler that is free and works great.
    But any of the solutions are time consuming. Even with the Library Manager in Portable (windows version) it would take time with so many libraries. In Kontakt 6 you can search by the name of the library, so it's also an option to get to the one you need quickly.
    The most practical would be creating a Quick-load list, and that's also time consuming.

    The truth is, it's possible to create an automation script but I don't see advantage in it. Asking the user to type the name of the library and the order number. It takes as much as go though the plist files. And you can't just define the order number for one library, if that number is already used by other, you need to change the number of that other library, too.

    You can do it with Total Commander extension inNKX but it can't be automated (yet). I'd recommend you to try innkx with the typical use, packing samples into nkx files. If you feel comfortable I'll explain here how to do it.

    @Xupito Is it possible for you to DM the tutorial to me as well?

    Thanks in advance!

    Also, can INNKX be used to pack samples in containers too?
