Native Instruments today released KONTAKT 3.5,
a major free update for its leading software sampler. The new version
fully utilizes the capabilities of today's computer systems to overcome
existing performance barriers, and includes many improvements that make
KONTAKT even more powerful and convenient.
At the heart of KONTAKT 3.5 is a new high-performance sample engine with
unrivaled capabilities for sophisticated orchestral scoring and similar
complex projects that are a mainstay of professional KONTAKT users.
KONTAKT 3.5 is fully compatible with Windows Vista 64, and takes
advantage of 64-bit memory addressing to utilize practically unlimited
amounts of RAM. On the Mac, KONTAKT 3.5 introduces the new "Kontakt
Memory Server" which can make use of up to 32 GByte RAM on OS X 10.4 and
beyond.
KONTAKT 3.5 also uses a new "zero-memory" DFD technology for highly
efficient disc streaming with a strongly reduced memory footprint, and
true multiprocessor support now enables additional performance benefits
on modern multi-core and multiprocessor setups.
To better accommodate its unparalleled arsenal of third-party instrument
content, the new KONTAKT version displays all installed libraries and
KONTAKT PLAYER instruments in a virtual rack, giving producers improved
overview for even the most extensive sound collections.
Further enhancements in KONTAKT 3.5 include direct MIDI learn for sound
parameter controls, improved automapping, individual bypass for effect
slots, optimized Pro Tools compatibility on Mac OS X 10.5, KSP
aftertouch interpretation, and a localized info pane in six languages.
The 3.5 update is now available as a free download for all owners of
KONTAKT 3.
