Hello all,
I realize this isn't Logic specific, but I know there are a lot of folks here who will know...
When I bought my midi Komplete keyboard, it came with Kontakt and Massive. First I'll say, that I don't think I have the full version of those, but I have a little something to get started. You see, even though I've used computers since grade school, and consider myself to be rather adept at figuring out technology, Native products are quite confusing to me. So, I'm not even sure what versions I have, but I didn't pay for them, so I imagine they're limited.
I would really like to tackle this issue of not knowing how to use them, so that I can start building a collection of virtual instruments in Kontakt, and using Massive for... well, whatever MAssive is used for? I've watched some youtube tutorials and no matter how I try, there is some connective tissue that is missing for me to allow me to grab onto the larger concept. I remember when I finally understood how to load an instrument and that you could actually combine more than one. Like, that process was NOT intuitive to me, based on how Logic is laid out for selecting instrument, or just basic OS navigation in general.
I hope someone can understand what I'm asking and possibly offer a link to a class or youtube person who may be good at explaining things thoroughly? I tried looking at Native Instrument's help info and emailing them and didn't get very far. I'm sorry, but I will just never learn anything if I have to read a manual cover to cover. I wish I was, but I can't learn that way. I need to watch and listen to things, and I can take a sketchy outline and associate it to something else I already understand and then run with it for the most part.
I realize that many forum folks are great at the googling and reading/learning and I hope you won't resent me for just coming to ask on the forums. Please don't spend any time on this for me. I'm just hoping someone out there might have a similar story and found a solution already.
Thank you!
