If I you want a full (discrete) glissando and/or "looped" harp of some kind you'll have to play it or "key it" in (aka piano roll or other editing means) as a MIDI sequence and save it or find a harp sound, a harp "run" (gliss), or a harp loop on web somewhere.

Again good luck


Larry in Kontakt 4 there is a harp in the Factory LibraryOrchestra/VSL Strings library. Did you look there in Kontakt 5? I would be very surprised if they took the harp out.

If you Google/bing harp for Kontakt 5 you will find a number of them. If you google/bing harp VSTi you will find a number of other harps.

Good luck.

Ps – if your DAW has an arpeggio function don’t over look that as it can be used to generate a harp like effect on an EP or Rhodes.


I phoned my wife and asked her if she wanted me to pickup fish and chips on the way home.
She just grunted.
She still regrets me naming the twins.
