Really useful video! Thanks! I'm only starting with film composition and I really needed this at this exact moment! Now I can go back to uni for year 2 all prepared.

Hey, I just have a more advanced question that I'm wondering about!
I'm working on my first Kontakt instrument, and it's an instrument that works by layering lots of looped horror material. My issue is that the sounds don't all cover the same octaves, and so layering them like normal in kontakt would be inconsistent and weird feeling.

I have two ideas to solve this issue, one is to split the keyboard into sections and have each group take up it's own little space. Or instead I could create pitch knobs for each 'layer' and use these to pitch them independently. This is more similar to how synths handle pitch, in that you would pitch each oscillator independently and then merge them into one signal. I don't know if this would be a good idea XD But my issue is that I have no clue how to actually implement this. I can see that I would have to create a script that tells kontakt which sample (note value) to play depending on the knob. I wouldn't want to stretch the pitch, but swap to a sample of a different pitch.

Thanks for reading my comment!
I hope you can give me some advice!

Edit: Alternatively I could just forget the layering, and let people do that themselves. I think I just wanted to highlight the importance of fading different instruments in and out in this genre.

Friend, I have a question. I needed to insert new signatures at moments where they are not exactly in time, not even in subdivisions of time, I would like to start a new signature anywhere and from there start a new time, how do I do that? In ProTools I did this in a very practical way, anywhere in the session I wanted I could start a new measure. In Logic this is very difficult, it seems that the software does not accept a new measure unless it is exactly in some subdivision of the song.
