NKS Instruments can be found in the KOMPLETE KONTROL Browser next to your KOM-

PLETE Instruments. All of their Preset files are fully tagged, so filtering in the Browser gives
you matching results from both KOMPLETE Instruments and NKS Instruments. And when you
load a Preset file from an NKS Instrument, its parameters are automatically mapped to the

controls on the keyboard.

Installing VST Plug-ins with NKS Support

VST plug-ins with NKS support are automatically added to your Library when you start KOM-

PLETE KONTROL for the first time after completing their installation. The folders containing
the Preset files for NKS support can be managed in the

Factory

pane on the

Library

page of

the Preferences. For more information, refer to

7.5.4, Preferences – Library Page

Installing KONTAKT and REAKTOR Instruments with NKS Support

Third-party developers of KONTAKT and REAKTOR Instruments provide you with a folder that
contains all Instrument files, including Preset files and samples. Instead of running an instal-
ler, this folder needs to be stored on the hard drive. The Instrument can then be activated with
Native Access, which also adds it to the KOMPLETE KONTROL Library. If you are using KON-
TAKT or REAKTOR, the Instrument is automatically added to their respective Browser, too.
To activate your KONTAKT Instrument with NKS support and add it to the KOMPLETE KON-
TROL Library, follow the steps below:
1.

Start the stand-alone version of the KOMPLETE KONTROL software.

2.

Open the

File

sub-menu in the KOMPLETE KONTROL menu and click on
