Am I the only one who falls asleep watching Kontakt how-to videos?
Seriously, I've made multiple stabs at becoming proficient with Kontakt, but ultimately decide to watch some paint dry instead.
I have managed to make some instruments of my own, that I actually use on a regular basis. I've also tweaked commercial libraries, such as combining three percussion libraries into one, adding an extra octave to the top of a guitar library, building stripped-down versions of libraries that were too memory-intensive, and making libraries out of some of my favorite hardware synth patches.
But as soon as you start talking about zones, I zone out. And scripting, ugh. Mind you, I'm a programmer by trade and have developed a high tolerance for technical minutia and obscure gotchas. But anything beyond coding a reverb knob and I start wondering if there isn't something good on TV.
