5. The Browser
The Browser lets you intuitively explore your Kontakt or Komplete Kontrol libraries directly from
your keyboard. It provides a set of tools that enable you to nd presets with ease, both in your
factory and user content. You can lter by brands, products, banks, musical tags, Favorites and
factory/user presets to narrow your search. You can also audition presets before loading them.
Depending on the connected software (Kontakt or Komplete Kontrol), the Browser on your
keyboard will show presets for different types of objects:
• If the keyboard is connected to Kontakt, you can browse presets for your Kontakt Instruments.
• If the keyboard is connected to Komplete Kontrol, you can browse presets for your Instruments,
Loops, One-shots and Effects.
In the Browser, most workows equally apply to these different object types. Therefore, this
chapter refers to all object types as products: The Browser helps you nd and load presets for your
various products.
For more information on Kontakt Instruments, refer to the Kontakt manual. For more
information on the Instruments, Loops, One-shots and Effects that can be loaded in
Komplete Kontrol, refer to the Komplete Kontrol manual.
