Update of the popular sampler. Contact allows you to play and process previously recorded audio data – samples of musical instruments, sound effects, vocal tracks, and more – but this is only a small part of the entire spectrum of its capabilities.
In Vkontakte, you can use ready-made instruments from a huge number of libraries from third-party developers or create your own virtual instruments, apply powerful built-in processing modules to their audio signals, build complex performance schemes with various modulation connections. Anything is possible – from ultra-precise recreation of real instruments to the creation of original, unlike anything else instruments.
The main innovation of the sixth version of Contact is the table-wave engine, which allows new hybrid instruments that combine synthesis with sampling to create unique sound textures.
Additional functionality:
- Activation of protected libraries is not required, the ability to register (add to bookmarks) in batch mode.
- Ability to edit patches of protected libraries.
- Ability to re-save with samples of patches from protected libraries.
- Ability to edit password-protected scripts.
Features of the PORTABLE version:
- Installation, including additional software (Service Center, Native Access, MS VS C ++ runtime), is not required.
- All settings are saved in the portable program folder (Windows registry and other system storages are not used, administrator rights are not required *).
- Integrated Library Manager, which provides full control over protected libraries, and also allows registering unprotected (self-made) libraries without generating nicnt files.
- Ability to work simultaneously with the installed version of the Contact without conflicts and with different settings.
Notes:
- (Super) administrator rights are required if the program folder to be transferred is placed in a protected system storage (for example, in Program Files) – such a location for portable programs is unnatural and is not recommended.
Kontakt PORTABLE is not compatible with NKS (Native Kontrol Standard):
- The tools of NKS-compatible libraries added to Kontakt PORTABLE will not appear on the screen of the NKS hardware device (Komplete Kontrol or Maschine). Accordingly, they cannot be selected, pre-listened and downloaded directly from the device’s browser, but only through the interface of the Contact itself.
- The controls of an NKS-compatible library instrument loaded into Kontakt PORTABLE are not automatically linked to the NKS device controllers, only manually in a standard way for external MIDI devices (MIDI Learn).
