Hints/good videos on learning Orange Tree Evolution guitars?
I bought Orange Trees Evolution Steel Strings and Strawberry Kontakt-guitars well over a year ago, and installed them the other day. Are there any particularily recommendable tutorials of these on Youtube or elsewhere?
It seems the download of Strawberry isn't complete so I'll have to check that, but I don't seem to get the Steel Strings working properly even though no messages of missing components occur. I can get the basic picking to work, but no strumming, for example. Many of the buttons and knobs don't seem to do anything, and I can't find the strumming construction window shown in the manual. The manual really doesn't go to details or help in trouble shooting.
First I couldn't even launch it, but after I installed the latest Kontakt4 update available, I could get it running.
I'll have to contact Orange Tree for the missing Strawberry data and advice, but I thought I'll not lose anything by asking here on the forum as well.
The manual says all the unzipped data must be in the same Steel Strings -folder when installing. Then, in the next chapter it says Kontakt libraries should be separately organised etc. But it doesn't say anything about separating the nki-file and the other data from each other. Do you folks have Kontakts nki-instrument files in the same folders as the samples? This far I've had the samples on a separate audio HDD.

The benefit of being a middle aged amateur is the low number of years of frustration ahead of you.
