Ultimate Kontakt Library Organizing
I have been a Native Instruments Kontakt user for almost twenty years, and in the course of time, I’ve amassed multi-terabytes of samples to load into Kontakt. Some are from commercial companies, other from indie developers, others from experiments, and others from my own studio kitchen. This has led to a lot of disorganization as my Kontakt library has grown. Finally I decided to tackle the problem by reorganizing the entire library, and in this tutorial video, I show the ins and outs of the method I chose, along with a number of tips I discovered along the way.
My new organized Kontakt library has been a massive help to my composing, as I’m able to find sounds quicker and easier, as well as discover new sounds that I may not be familiar with.
Well, that was dumb: I accidentally updated to macOS Sequoia. I thought I was updating to the latest Sonoma. And I didn't do a TM backup beforehand. I'm hoping all my software is compatible. I usually have to wait several months before all my software suites is safely certified.
Hold on while I switch chunks.

An important career PSA for my fellow musicians: tell people about your passions. Tell people about your goals. Do not be shy about the gigs you dream about. You never know who has the ability to put you on a path that accomplishes them, if they were made aware.
