Anyway, if Len doesn't mind and as he's going away for a couple of weeks, I'll make these spots available on www.vipaudioaccess.com In the next couple of days. The reason is I want to test them within Kontakt on a friends machine, as I only have the Kontakt Player...so I can do that tomorrow, as I talked to him today and he said that's OK. After that I'll put them up, there's only 3 spots, but I may add more in the meantime or perhaps it's worth adding to them depending on what works efficiently. Just with the 3 spots you can load and reset Kontakt patches, which is enough in its basic form. I'll let you know the details shortly, cheers Steve. -----Original Message----- From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Tim Martin Sent: 20 October 2012 03:43 To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ddots-l] Re: wavesfactory Steve, Would I need sighted assistance to spot those buttons? I'd love to be able to access my Kontakt libraries! Any help is appreciated.

It prompted me to take another look at the free Kontakt Player...and I'm glad to report I quickly spotted up the same buttons and it works really well. I've got the free sample library, so I was pleased to easily load the samples. I think it's worth going for even if it's just a matter of loading and clearing patches/samples, but like you say, anything else on top of that would just be a bonus. Many thanks again, cheers Steve. -----Original Message----- From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Len Viljoen Sent: 19 October 2012 16:00 To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ddots-l] Re: wavesfactory Hi steve. I spotted the file menu button and then the load button. That opens up a normal file open dialog from where you can brows to your different libraries and patches. I also spotted the reset multi button in the file menu because that clears the current instrument from the plugin. You must use application specific coordinates when you create the hotspots. The other methods don't work. I'm sure I can spot other stuff also if I want. Haven't tried yet. I can't tell you if kontakt will be a good option for you or not. I personally think it's great and I don't mind the lack of accessibility. The quality of sample make up for it. I use both kontakt 4 and 5. Some libraries only work with 5 but I don't have the full version of 5 so still need 4 for the libraries that require the full version.

Which version of Kontakt do you use and when you say you spotted up the most important buttons, do you mind telling us what these are? I don't have Kontakt, so I'm presuming that these buttons are always in the same place and that they enable you to browse to the patches in whatever library you have? I had a mess around in the Kontakt Player a while ago, but it only works with certain libraries and I wasn't able to simply browse/load patches without using the libraries interface within the player. I could have been doing things wrong, but I'm intrigued to know if Kontakt is worth a look at. Many thanks Steve. -----Original Message----- From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Len Viljoen Sent: 19 October 2012 11:42 To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ddots-l] Re: wavesfactory Hi Neville and steve. I got a sighted person to help me hotspot the most important buttons in kontakt. I can open the file menu and then load instruments. I cannot use other features in kontakt such as changing outputs and faders and so forth. Most libraries use keyswitches and midi cc so I can make adjustments that way. The accessibility isn't great but I get bye and in my opinion there aren't many plugins that can compete with kontakt libraries. I'm talking quality of samples. I own drum libraries and guitar libraries as well as a few other goodies and they enhance my projects even though I don't have full accessibility. Almost all the library developers are willing to create custom patches for me with the keyswitches and midi cc mapped the way I want them. Hope this info helps.
