This document contains additional information about the KONTAKT Sample Library.

Please note that the library is not contained in this demo version!


Installation
For the most convenient access, it is highly recommended that you copy the contents of the five CD-ROMs (3.1 Gigabyte) to your hard drive. If you are running low on hard drive space, it is of course also possible to load the instruments individually from the CD-ROMs.

Memory allocation (Mac-only)
Since many of the KONTAKT instruments are extremely large, you may need to allocate extra memory either to KONTAKT or to your VST host.
If you use KONTAKT as a stand-alone application, with DirectConnect, or with MAS, memory is assigned directly to the KONTAKT application. To assign more memory to KONTAKT, first find the KONTAKT application on your hard drive, then pull down the File menu and choose Get Info > Memory. In the Preferred Size field, type in a number that is larger than 320,000 (if your computer has enough RAM), since the largest instrument in the sample library is about 280 MB and some extra RAM is needed for KONTAKT itself.
If you use KONTAKT as a VST plug-in, memory that is allocated to your VST host (Cubase, Logic, etc) can also be used by the KONTAKT VST plug-in. To allocate more memory to your VST host, simply follow the above procedure. However, instead of selecting the KONTAKT application itself, select your VST host application and add the desired amount of memory to the amount that is already there.
