It’s that flexibility that has caught the imagination of a whole industry of pro and hobbyist creators, who in turn have made it the platform of choice for virtual symphony orchestras, unusual acoustic instruments, unobtainable synthesisers, and everything in between. What that instrument looks like, how complex it is, and how you play it is entirely up to you.
If it makes a sound, you can turn it into a KONTAKT instrument. It’s whatever you want it to be, effectively. Today, KONTAKT 7 is our flagship, do-it-all instrument platform. Two decades, countless blockbuster film scores, hundreds of chart hits, and literally thousands of incredible instruments later, we can confidently update that description.
It’s also fair to say, at that time, that it was “a sampler”. It’s fair to say that when KONTAKT launched in 2002, nobody could have predicted its impact on the world of music production.
