4 out of 5 stars excellent tutorial... but a little dated   July 26, 2008
GameMaker (Portland, OR USA)
I'm most of the way through this tutorial, and I've enjoyed it and it's been extremely helpful. I'm brand new to Kontakt, and fairly new to the digital music scene in general. I had played around with Kontakt some on my own prior to watching this tutorial, but was mostly baffled by the enormous cockpit that we are presented with in this program. This video has helped clarify a lot of things for me tremendously, and made me realize the vast amount of possibilities.

What I like best about the video, is that the learning is all in the context of achieving specific goals. Rather than wandering aimlessly around the interface, the teacher starts you out with goals like "lets create a new instrument from an existing sample" or "lets put together an orchestral multi instrument like what you'd need to do midi orchestration". Things like that. And then in the context of doing those activities, you lean other things like the interface in general, interface customization, and basics about how the program works.

There is also a heavy emphasis on how you customize different sounds. A lot of time is spent loading simples and creating custom instruments form the samples, or loading existing instruments and customizing them in different ways. It's great stuff, and it's also very well edited and very professional.

The downside to this, and why it gets only 4/5 stars from me is that it is pricey, and also dated. As of the summer of '08, we're at version 3 of Kontakt now, and so this video is one version behind, yet there is no newer version, and they still charge full price for the video.

I went through the entire Kontakt2 tutorial and was very impressed. All of the features and functions are well covered in this product, and I am now using Kontakt like a pro. Well worth it no matter how you like to use Kontakt.
