PDF Kontakt is a pretty complex program and does a lot of cool things. Unfortunately there are many questions about it and it can be difficult to find the answer you are looking for on the Native Instruments website or the internet. These are some of the most common questions that I have seen regarding Kontakt. If you have any questions you would like to see added to this FAQ leave a comment.

Can I record in Kontakt 4 ?
See #10 in the FAQ
Just got the N.I. VINTAGE ORGANS collection! However, I do not have KONTAKT. I use MixCraft and mostly .wav files- then bounce to Adobe Audition and Premier Pro, etc. I managed to download the Organ files and put them on DVD. But I have no idea how to use them! None of my programs work- and I have many. Are there any programs other than KONTAKT that I can use these .nki files with? Are the .nki files like Loops? AND WHAT IS THIS “USER INTERFACE?” LIMITED TO KONTAKT? I am dying to add these great vintage tones to my work. I know next to nothing about MIDI, and less about Native Instruments. I am using SampleTank with Mixcraft 4- works well- simple, easy, no manual needed. ANY AND ALL INFO/ADVICE/SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED! Shiva
