Nubie to Kontackt 4 and Reaper
How do I make my own drumkits for Kontakt 4 > Reaper with drum samples from this forum (like SSD kits)?

'Twas wondering this too.
Just look up "RoundRobin" in your Kontakt manual.

go to the mapping editor... make a velocity layer by dragging all the samples you want to use onto a single key.

note: if you are using hard/medium/soft layers you need to name them appropriately or make sure that the order in which you are dropping them are contiguous.

you can also use the script editor as well as dfd settings to optimize your kit.


hope all that makes sense.

You are talking about Kontakt 4, right Timislegend?

Tim, it'd be awesome if you made a detailed tutorial about creating drum samples for kontakt when you have free time

kontakt (in general).

2, 3, 4... they all use the mapping editor.

if you are using the kontakt player, you will unfortunately not be able to create multi sampled drumkits.

(as far as i know).

i will do one soon... just got a new computer (macpro)

gonna set it up, then do a bunch of tracking!

Yup,

You need the full version of Kontakt to make instruments.

What about multi-samples though? Like round-robin, where it triggers a different sample randomly for every hit?
