I recently purchased Komplete Kontrol along with the S49 keyboard controller)... this package is a beast...
There are loads of helpful videos on youtube. Enjoy...

I am finding some useful sounds in Komplete.
I would like to hear about what others are using it for.

In addition to the Brazilian jazz I usually write, I also direct a classical chamber orchestra for a few concerts a year. I use the Spitfire BBC Strings, Brass and Woodwinds.

Hi Matt,
Did you buy Complete 13? I sort of remember you talking about it.

I have Komplete Ultimate Collectors 12, when 13 came out, there just was not enough new stuff to do the upgrade for me at this point, but I love it. Lots of good stuff in there. Great pianos, strings, horns, woodwinds, drums of all varieties, good reverbs and EQs too. Full version of Kontakt which is great.
My wife asked if I had seen the dog bowl. I told her I didn't even know he could.

I don't know anymore. Too many things that start with K.
For what I have, the Spitfire libraries, the full Kontact 6 is sufficient.

The sale price which comes up once or twice a year is too good a deal to miss out on. Once you have gone down the rabbit hole you have to keep going.

There is a lot in the Komplete bundle I may never use, but so far, I really love the Kontakt sample player and much of the sample library. There is a steep learning kurve, and the amount of Kontent is daunting... dang, there's that K again.

Out of curiosity, I counted the number of manuals in Komplete Ultimate CE which I keep in a separate folder and it totalled 136.

I spent most of the day sorting through all the new stuff. There are miles and miles. Forget changing up the presets, that could go on forever. Assigning various sounds to pads on two keyboards is a lot of work to figure out. Here is a first attempt at mashing some of this together. https://soundcloud.com/user-816849740/too-many-ksBilly

Thanks bloc-head. Many things I don't have figures out yet. Spitfire is causing Studio One to crash at times. Sine player is also locking things up.
Everything else seems to be working.
The way that Kontakt is laid out makes it easy to find stuff.
Onward through frog...lol

Seriously, I'd love to know how you accomplished that, and if you might consider sharing that folder. This method is for PC Users. Using File Explorer, go to the NI Library folder that was created when you installed Komplete and in the upper right search bar, type *.pdf This should now display all the manuals which are in pdf format. From there, you can copy into a separate folder.

Thank you Patrick, I'm going to do that right now... then the real work begins...

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
Convenient Ways to Listen to Band-in-a-Box® Songs Created by Program Users!
