Re: [Logic_Cafe] on using etiher kontak full version or kontakt player2 within logic pro

2008-01-12 by GAmoore@aol.com

Kontact allows you to set different midi channels on the same instrument. In 
logic's terminology its a multi-instrument. So you would open kontact on one 
track, then set up your instruments in Kontact. I think you can just add them, 
and they will automatically up the midi channel (1st one is midi 1, 2nd one is 
midi 2, etc). Then in Logic you can make 15 more copies of that SAME 
instrument (there is a key command for new track, but not the same one as for new 
track with next instrument). You should be ready then. 

With the more advanced string ibraries (like Sonivox) you can make each midi 
track a different articulation. So you only have one track in logic, but maybe 
the first note is midi channel 1, then next is midi 3, then back to 1, then 7 
or whatever. IN this way you can get very realistic playback which doesn't 
sound sampled becaus the same note "C4" for example will sound different with 
different articulations.
