These macros will import into Keyboard Maestro (on the Macintosh) into 3 macro groups: Kontakt 5 stand-alone, Kontakt Content Missing Palette and Palette Launcher. Generally, as macros are updated in the future, it'll most likely be in the Kontakt 5 Stand-alone macro group. Unless otherwise specified, when an updated set of macros are available, delete only the Kontakt 5 Stand-Alone macro group and then import the new file. Note that version 1.1 of these macros works with Kontakt version 5.8.0. For Kontakt versions 5.6.x, use version 1.0 of the Kontakt stand-alone macros. While Kontakt 5 Stand-alone is running, the following shortcuts are available: Libraries Tab, Control+1, Files Tab, Control+2, Database TabControl+3, Expert Tab, Control+4, and Automation Tab, Control+5. Note that the above tabs are only visible when the Browser is shown. In the next version of these macros, the user will be alerted to this fact. For now, try to keep it in mind. 0To add a Kontakt Library, press Control+a. Note that in Kontakt 5.8 the Add Library button has been changed to the Manage Libraries button. Pressing this button opens the Options dialog where there is a Launch Native Access button. This shortcut will automatically press both of these buttons for you. Of course, you could always just launch Native Access separately if desired. To access some of the items in the File menu, press Control+f and a palette will appear with the available menu items that don't involve submenus. When the palette is visible, clicking a button will select that item in the file menu. You can use first letter navigation to automatically select the buttons in the palette. any duplicates will narrow down as you type until a unique single match is found and will automatically be selected. For example, there's only one item in the File Menu starting with the letter l select the Load item in the File Menu. On the other hand, there are two items in the File Menu beginning with n and those are New Instrument and New Instrument Bank. Therefore, typing the letter n will narrow down the palette to just two buttons. Continuing to type the name will eventually lead to a unique match as soon as the space after the word "instrument" is typed but it's probably jus1t faster to navigate to the button and press it. Tapping Control+b once will speak the status of the Browser to indicate whether or not it's hidden. Double-tap to show or hide the Browser. Pressing Control+m toggles the Minimize/Maximize view button. Pressing Control+w focuses the mouse on the Workspace Management Menu. Press the mouse to access the items in the Workspace Menu. They are: 1. Browser 2. Master 3. Info 4. Outputs 5. Keyboard 6. Quick Load After clicking the mouse on the Workspace Management Menu, use the down arrow to access the above items and press Return. Note there will not be any audible feedback. Pressing Control+o will open the Options dialog which has not yet been mapped. The Kontakt Content Missing Palette macro group will only become activated when a Content Missing dialog appears in Pro Tools, Logic, Reaper64, Kontakt or Komplete Kontrol. The four macros contained within the group are mouse pointer coordinates that will be clicked when one of the macros is chosen to be triggered from a window palette. The four buttons that will appear are: Abort Loading, Browse for Files, Browse for Folder and Skip Missing. Clicking any one of the buttons will trigger the mouse click for the corresponding coordinate location for that button in the Content Missing dialog . The Display Palette for Content Missing dialog macro (located in the Palette Launcher macro group) has no shortcut and is set to automatically trigger whenever the Content Missing dialog appears.
