d. Getting started:
“The Ultimate Custom Bundle” comes fully loaded with ready to go presets. Simply load a
multi instrument preset from the “Preset” folder (B) or build up your own multi instrument
using the provided instruments from the “Instrument” folder.
Panning only works on signals which are send to the default output of the .NKI!
When using the multiple output options in the instrument .NKI, we recommend routing the
direct signals to the default output. This way direct signals will be influenced by panning and
can be treated just as acoustically recorded drums.
For tips and trick on using NI Kontakt check one of the many tutorial videos on Youtube.
