But, since you are new, I wonder if you are hearing a slap-back delay/loop-back produced by the latency of your computer and/or soundcard/interface. This is common for newbies to run into depending what you have connected to your computer. Also, if you are using a gamer type of audio/video card you might have ambience settings there turn on. If that's the case check your soundcard properties.

Post your system specs and what you have connected and how you have it routed.


I have K-4 and it does NOT have reverb in the control panel. Any reverb either has to come from the source sample itself or from a plugin in the DAW being used as the host. Many of the sounds in Kontakt as well as the other synths in the NI package are reverb heavy at the sample level.

Latency, is not going to cause a slap-back or looping echo/reverb sound. It causes a delay and also it can cause clicks, pops and dropouts, but I've never heard it cause reverb...... Normally, the music tends to be out of sync or delayed from the key press to the sound in the speakers.
