Instructions

Instructions are also included with each download

Browser & Controls

Presets are tagged using information from the plugin along with manual character tagging by hand to allow easy filtering and browsing of presets

Mapping covers most parameters available and a newly designed template has been created for Electra 3 that places more useful parameters on the first pages. Because Electra is a 4 layer synth there are a LOT of controls available.

Refer to the ReadMe PDF for a full controller template reference

One thing to note: from tests I have done, mappings in the VST3 version appear to work fine in Komplete Kontrol but some parameters appear missing when loaded in Maschine (such as FX/Filter parameters). This seems to be a bug in the VST3 version of this plugin (VST2 is fine) but the developer is certain the issue is not in the plugin and is in Maschine. It is not possible to re-learn these missing parameters in Maschine at all so just be aware this plugin in Maschine appears to have some issues with some controls so if you need, the VST2 version will work correctly otherwise both VST2/3 appear to work fine in Komplete Kontrol.

FAQ / Disclaimer

This NKS library is created with no affiliation to Native Instruments or the VST vendor. I am not paid, or even supported by Native Instruments or the vendors. Downloading and usage of this library is at the users own risk. Payments are non refundable. There is no support or guarantee offered that these will suit your own application which is why a free version is offered to test with. If you are satisfied with the free version then the paid version offers the same features and includes all factory presets. There is no guarantee that future versions of the Komplete/Maschine software will support these preset files or the current features.

Users are not authorised to share or distribute the files with anyone else without the consent of Freelance SoundLabs. A lot of work goes into managing this project, hosting the files and writing documentation and I am also an active forum member helping out users. Please do the right thing; the cost is only a few beers to help me out.
