Free NI Kore Player and Sound Bundle

Hey--

We all like free stuff, so here is what I heard. You can download a free kore player and a bundle of samples from NI's home page. I heard about it from the KVR newsletter.

You can download the bundle right away, but you have to have the link to download the player emailed to you--and I've tried three times with two different email addresses and I can't get them to email me the link. I even emailed their webmaster asking for it.

So, it you're interested, give it a try...

    I downloaded the Kore player and the Christmas pack.


    It comes with some pretty great synth sounds. I would definitely download if you don't already own Kore.

    How long did it take them to email you the download link?

    I just remember downloading directly from their website. Its been a couple of months but I remember the process being fairly immediate except the 300MB Kore player download size and about the 100MB Christmas pack size (I did the Christmas pack earlier this month).

    I got my download link instantly. Maybe you should check your spam folder?

    Yep, the player link is sent through email... definitely check your junk mail folder.

    The soundpack is available direct...

    * Native Instruments Kore Soundpack Compilation Volume 1 (Mac/Windows - Free)

    from the DigiFreq Music Technology Downloads Library.

    RE: Free NI Kore Player and Sound Bundle 2008/12/31 14:31:10 (permalink)
    Ok - I must be thick. I've successfully downloaded Kore Player and the Compilation Vol. 1, installed both, registered Kore Player, and it won't play anything stand-alone. I can't click on the Control or Learn tabs, but it will let me select instruments in the main portion of the page.

    The other thing is I don't see a dll anyware so that this can be used as a vsti.

    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Thanks

    you might need to activate it with NI like the full one

    have a look in your NI folder off start.. see if Service centre is listed.. and go into that.. and it'll say not activated.. perhaps..

    just a matter of registering with NI if you haven't already.. then getting authorisation file.. job dun.

    I wish it was that simple. I think they just don't like me...

    It's all authorized and everything, and I found the vst dll - the install put it into my emagic logic vst folder - still can't get it to work though.

    Maybe because my audio is not configured properly - it's using WDM right now...

    run as a stand alone.. NOT vst

    you see a number of presets ? say 50 or something..

    one of the options it to rescan / rebuild... do so and you should have another 100 added if you added the other pack..

    I use asio mode.. can't say about wdm.. but if it's in vst mode.. it should take it's cue from the host.

    Do you have your MIDI interface tiurned on under MIDI in audio/MIDI settings? What do you have selected for a driver in the audio part? Is it a sound that needs the transport running?

    Get it running correctly in standalone first before trying to use it as a plugin.

    It is Free which is always a nice price, and I have had no problem installing or using it w Sonar. However is very limited for tweaking and editing,which is the tease to get u to buy the KORE 2. But since i already own FM8,Reaktor,B4 II, I will pass for now. NI in My Opinion makes great sounding and easy to use instruments. Check it out if u looking for something to deviate ur time w this weekend lol

    doc you have integrated FM8 / Reaktor / b4 II into it right?

    if not, then try that... the full version is just a far more expanded library of sounds.. and the other version features the Kore controller.. which makes life easier...

    basically all the same product. BUT it's the sounds + controller you pay for...

    try it.. import ya presets from your existing plug ins vst'i + fx... AND you might change your mind big time.. esp.. if you like making up matrix's of sound
