By contrast, the Transient Master lacks the finesse of much better dedicated plugins.Д«ut overall, with three of these processors sonically equal to dedicated plug-ins, you may find yourself doing more inside Kontakt, and we expect library builders will exploit them too. Of the other two newbies, the Tape Saturator is the simpler, but also the better, of the two. Likewise, the Solid Bus Compressor delivers the famous SSL buss compressor sound, with the added benefit of a mix blend. The Solid EQ is absolutely excellent, and although you'll miss the attractive skin from the Guitar Rig version, the sound is crisp and punchy. The first three are basically re-skinned versions of NI's new Guitar Rig-based effects (Kontakt 5 users can only use them in Kontakt and not as general purpose plug-ins via the Guitar Rig shell). On to the new features, then, and first up, you get four effects: Solid EQ, Solid Bus Comp, Transient Master and Tape Saturator. The immediate playability and simplicity of editing the sounds means this library is perfectly in keeping with the Гјber-ROMpler aspect of Kontakt.

Retro fetishists will love it, but it's totally suitable for modern electronic and pop too. Sonically, it's characterful and inspiring, with the pleasing, clear-yet-warm sound associated with analogue. There are eight Sound Variations per patch, showcasing the diversity available from the raw samples, and you can even morph between them with a slider. The interface is nicely done, with a Sound knob to radically EQ the oscillator, four filter types, reverb/echo, arpeggiator and more. Those who buy Kontakt 5 get a code to download the pack, which contains patches sampled from 16 vintage hardware synths, from the obvious (Minimoog and Roland MKS-80 Super Jupiter) to the unexpected (Crumar Roady electric piano and String Melody II string machine). The only new sample content this time round is the Retro Machines Mk2 library, which is also available on its own for $79 as a Kontakt Player instrument. On the upside, previous projects work fine with the new library, so you can delete your old one to save some space once you know it's all working OK. Kontakt 5 doesn't work with earlier library versions. With nine dual-layer DVDs to install, this not only takes ages (and makes Komplete 8 Ultimate's hard drive-based installation seem highly attractive) but also leaves you with a legacy sample-set eating disk space.

To maintain compatibility with old DAW sessions, users have been encouraged to install from scratch the new library and retain the old library as well.

One thing that continues to frustrate Kontakt users is the process of upgrading the sample library when a new full version is released.
