Routing to Aux Tracks from Kontakt 3

[Agent Cooper]

Hello, long time lurker first time poster.

 

I am having a lot of trouble understanding the output section of Kontakt 3. I know how to set up a multi channel instrument in logic 8 using aux channels. I do know how to send the outputs from Knontakt to the aux channels within Logic 8.

 

If for example I have two instruments loaded in my rack, both outputs are going to st.1

 

I then go to the mixer press config for st.1 and change the physical outputs to aux 1 and 2 which assigns them to aux #11 and #12 respectively (I don't know why it is not #1 and #2)

Then in my logic mixer I go to aux 1 assign the input to Kontakt 3 # 12 but it the same signal that is coming out of instrument 1.

 

I have checked other threads here such as

I have also tried David's multi instrument environment tab but don't quite understand how to apply it.

 

 

I am sure the soultion is simple but I cannot see it, any help would be greatly appreciated as this is the third day in a row I have spent trying to figure this out.

 

Thanks.

I stopped using Kontak as my main sampler because of this. It is NI's fault but this was back in Kontak 2. I am not surprised to see that they haven't fixed it. I gave up on it and there tech support sux ass. It also won't do one shots to multiple samples even when I highlight them all. I have to edit them one at a time.

I have Kontak 3 and will try it again to see if I can get it to work. It is morbid curiosity.

Thanks for helping, I definitely would have reconsidered my purchase if I knew something as simple as this would be so difficult.

I loaded in 4 different instruments and got them all to go out different channels. You don't need aux channels to do it. They are for fx in Kontakt

 

I got it to work it was very easy. I might start using kontakt again. Just PM me your email and I will send you the session. I tried to up load the session but it wouldn't let me. And I hate to type

That said..Using multiple insatnces of Kontakt will be more resource demanding..Just so you know..So MAX your RAM..
