More detailed review of Kontakt 7 by Jef Gibbons: • Kontakt 7:Checking the...
Kontakt 7 comes out as a standalone product in the beginning of October, but you can already get it as part of Native Instruments Komplete 14
The highlights of this update are the brand-new browser, that makes it a lot faster and easier to find instruments and presets. It’s resize-able it has sound previews, and you can filter presets by categories. You can now also add non-official 3rd party libraries to the browser.
Perhaps the most useful and exciting update is the updated instrument library - Kontakt Factory Library 2, which adds a lot new content - brand new collections like the Orchestral library and newly recorded sounds for existing libraries.
Some people may be disappointed that the actual instrument creation interface hasn’t been updated. While it’s can definitely benefit from an update to make it resizable and bigger on hi-res displays, I can understand why Native Instruments have focused on the factory library and browsing experience. This seems to be an update focused on the end user and the way I see it Kontakt isn’t really the quick sampler that you will pull up while you’re making music and quickly load up a sample into it and use it on the spot. For this purpose I always reach for Ableton’s Simpler and other DAW have their own versions of this type of quick sampler.
So the interface in question seems to be used more by instrument library creators to meticulously craft playable instruments and for them this update adds some new effects and small under-the-hood changes to the audio engine.
But overall the updated library is awesome and very useful to cover all bases in terms of sounds that you may need. While these are not the insanely detailed hyper realistic multi-gigabyte instruments, they are extremely useable and nice sounding. Not everyone needs an 80 gb orchestral library, but it’s good to have a variety of quality sounds at your disposal and that library covers everything from synths, to drums, to exotic instruments, to bread and butter pianos, strings, acoustic instruments, etc.
