We need more videos from this guy! Had me cracking up when bringing the samples into melodyne. "Fun isn't it" 😂. Keep up the good work!

Such an excellent tutorial and so useful! Just what I needed today!

Thank you very much. Never know about how powerful the Kontakt that I already have. Auto-Subscribed. 👍🏼

After create, may I save it as a "file" to use in my future projects? and load on other computer? Which kind of file is it?

So weird, I just brought my kalimba downstairs to sample, searched youtube for how to sample using Kontakt, and this was the first video that came up!

Some thing I have learned is to always stretch notes downwards rather than up the scale..my A/B tests have confirmed for both piano and guitar that a better sounding instrument results...worth a try 🙏🏿🙏👍🎩🦄

Awesome! Looking forward to experimenting with this.

I can't drag any audio files on to the Kontakt keyboard for some reason...any idea why that might happen?

Thanks a lot for this simple and clear video !

Great video! The right term for the finger piano is 'Kalimba' by the way ;)

You can select all and commit, just unlock merge region or whatever it says

[pergon]

There is a new Kontakt GUI Maker available that does make these things easier 😊

[WhitbyStuff]

I really want to see how to add an image to the instrument.

[superblondeDotOrg]

Amazing demo, also made me want to buy a finger piano lol

Excellent educational value; just what i needed, thanks! Was kinda hoping there was a download link for that thumb piano sample!!! Ok, maybe that's a bit much to ask :-)

V nice vid. Been looking at a lot of samplers tryna find the best for my workflow. One feature is layering. I want to be able to layer a bunch of sounds, like keys + rain sounds etc. Is kontakt good at that? i saw you can do some layering, but I wonder how much. The other thing is I'm wondering about granular synthesis and if kontakt can do that or if you've tried

Thank you :) I learned a lot from this video ;)
