Kontakt Virtual Keyboard?

[seanmccoy]

Hey all. I generally use Logic for all my MIDI-based work, but I need to be able to use Kontakt and Reaktor in PT for some sound design work. At this point I have no MIDI controller for my PC-based PT rig. My attempts to use Kontakt's virtual keyboard have failed so far, and no MIDI tab even shows up in the Kontakt Options page. Is it possible to use this to generate MIDI events?

No. There's no MIDI out from any vi in aax land at the moment. Do you have a keyboard controller for your Logic rig? If so why not use it on the PT machine?

Ah, I was afraid of that. The difficulty of using my existing Logic controllers on my PC is purely logistics (no pun intended), but I'll cobble something together. Thanks for the info.

Let us know whatever you come up with. I think the issue is with the aax format but not sure about that. It's one of those things I miss from Sonar on Windows.
