Visit the community post (if you havent already) and take the poll on if you think Leap was good for Kontakt 8! Appreciate you feedback! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@OriginalKriolu]

The beat is fiyah! Great review of leap

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Thanks brother. Just wanted to give a little bit more from a creator on this topic then most. Its alot with Kontakt 8 and needs to be discussed and separated, lol Hope you have a great week! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@OriginalKriolu]

@@PULSEMusicGroup YW! The review is always great from a creator point of view. All is well. Hopefully your week is also going well!!

[@jamescornelius6036]

Bro lovin this kontakt 8 , like a kid at 59 years on Christmas ,lol, nice beat as well, man I can use this at church, the chord tools, since most of the time iI am on keys and its just me, I could feel in some parts, make my sound fatter, lol

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Appreciate that man........and that was just on the fly using Leap. Without question! ESPECIALLY at church and during those times when you are in service and just coming up with chords on the fly. Depending on the church setup could be super dope! I was already thinking about that for ours because we have a couple of setups and we are also preparing for a full studio setup for a church podcast and etc. So we were in the same page, lol 💯💯💯

[@JayfkProductions876]

Think it's Safe to say Kontakt 8 is A Hit 💪

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Exactly!!! I wanted to say that to......as for me I really like the additional feel it has to Kontakt and how it makes the workflow a little quicker. Everyone might not feel that but the majority will. I might have to upgrade my computer though (which is long overdue) It's a good one but I do so much on it. But definitely Jay, it's a bit! Appreciate you got the page man.......been missing the input and feedback bro, lol! Pray all is well! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@Creative_Spasciz]

You know I'm coming through to show some love!!! Dope video!! That beat was nice bro!!!

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

My brother. Appreciate you man as always. It's always good when I see you drop on your brother. You know we gotta break these new features down in sets, lol Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@jroc2k]

New creation begins, I have the Komplete 15 Collector's Edition, and NI did not disappoint!

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Appreciate that input JRoc. Alot of mixed feelings I been getting from the community about Komplete 15 but the majority of feeling it so far. Appreciate you coming through and checking out the vid! Pray everything is good family. Happy creating! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@jroc2k]

@PULSEMusicGroup Amen brother!

[@kenvis6389]

That is more than I expected. But I just got Komplete 14 Ultimate not that long ago, and still working on some cinematic instruments. I will most likely wait for a sale to pick it up. I like that you are doing this in parts. Super helpful!

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Ken my brother! I super appreciate you as always for everything that you do and how you support the channel! You are always a great inspiration and helps me along with other to just be purposeful. Thanks so much again and hopefully when Black Friday hits this year let's see if this actually happens with some things that just happen this year! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@jamescornelius6036]

Thanks for diving into the leap as far as you went, no one else did that, about explaing the custom kit

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

And that is exactly why I wanted to do this because I'm not sure if any will take the time but to get the full experience you HAVE to break down the updates and features in Kontakt 8 separate in vids. I just wanted to make sure that when ever some needed to come back and reference they could with timestamps. Appreciate you for noting that and just supporting family. Always good to see you on the channel! Happy creating............So you have Kontakt 8 already? How do you like it? Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Also share this if you think it will help anyone else as well! 💯💯💯

[@jamescornelius6036]

@@PULSEMusicGroup I do, I have beena musician for a long time, this is the one constant in my life, keeps me stress free, plus I love incorporating software into my church rig, I used to be a hardware man all types of synths drumsets, but as the sound of acoustic instruments improved, I started to move toward sample libraries , I love my hardware, but as far as a real instrument sound the samples take the cake, I have been buying NI Products since FM7 and Pro 53, Got kontakt on Kontakt 4, dang that was a lot lol

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

​​@@jamescornelius6036You think 4 was alot........I have Collectors Edition of 15 and there is NO POSSIBLE WAY for you to have a creative block. That's one of the reasons I love NI. Everyone has issues with them of course but I try to take the meat and throw away the bones. It's been nothing but good to me so.........but yes having it in the setup at church for just sounds and being creative during praise and worship is fun and adds to the atmosphere! Most definitely! You gonna love it brother! 💯💯💯

[@Ink0ne415]

Peace that beat had my speakers knocking lol. Haven't tried 8 yet but 7 use to crash my system so much, so Im hoping 8 works better for me.

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Seems that now the more the upgrade for VST instruments the better you have to make sure that your computer is up to date. I'm considering doing mine even though its not that bad. But Kontakt 8 has a lot of updates from Native Access with a decent amount needed to update. Beat had the speakers knocking huh, lol That's makes me smile big!!! Appreciate you brother. Good to see you you as always! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@producerhat]

Separate video(s) definitely needed. Good cover and 🔥 beat.

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Without question brother and I figured its a lot better for us to do each feature and fair to the viewers. So if they want the specific question about them, they have it. Appreciate you PH. I expect to see yours too brother. If we miss something then one of us should pick it up and make sure it's covered!!!! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@leonshaw2772]

Dope video as always fam!

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Appreciate that family. Thanks so much. Hopr the vid helps in anyway with the new updates and features. Would love the feedback as well if not so we can pass it back to NI! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@gsmith11172]

Dope video as always

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

My brother! Back in the building. Appreciate you as always man. I just hope it helps everyone out because I know alot of the content creators did some surface stuff but I know alot more was gonna be needed. It's just a matter of recording all this stuff then getting it up here, smh lol But you know it's nothing but love and we do this for each other. Pray everything good as always! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@gsmith11172]

@@PULSEMusicGroup I think kontakt has some very good additions that might need multiple videos to help people work them in their workflow

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

​​@@gsmith11172Consider it done brother. Hopefully my fellow creators can do some too just in case I might miss something but I will do my best! You know that! Gotta do 1 or 2 more for Kontakt 8 and I think everything would be covered. 💯💯💯

[@jaunti]

Dang, Theziz. That beat had a nice feel. I might do a different video about Leap and Kithara. Hope all is good on your end. Blessings, brother ✌🏾

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Hey brother. You should!!!!! It's good for the viewers to have specific go to and even though the timelines are good you still should zone in on them so later one if people need to find something they will find them better in a search on YT. Appreciate that on the beat! It's was fun! Talk to you soon and everything is well. Pray the same on your end brother! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@jaunti]

@@PULSEMusicGroup You're absolutely right. I might do it. Keep the videos coming, as the viewers (including myself) will find great value in your inspiration.

[@Brhudsonjr]

Nice video all day I just downloaded it and leap is not bad at all 💪🏾💯

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Appreciate that alot family. Thanks for coming through and checking out the vid! Leap is kinda cool and I use it more than I thought as of recently since I been producing. I have alot of options now for flexibility when it comes to production because of Kontakt 8. Really opening up my creative juices, lol Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💯

[@MaTTiiBeaTz]

🔥Is anyone here running kontakt 8 on Mac OSX 12 montary without issues?🙏🏻

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Thanks so that family and appreciate you so much for coming through and checking out the vid and the channel! Hopefully someone can answer this as I have Windows. Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@Brhudsonjr]

I'm running Mac OSX 12 on a 2013 Mac Pro... No issues so far using Kontakt 8

[@lovelymusicnow4404]

Can any of these sample loops be used as a instrument to played by a midi keyboard? like the synths and pad loobs and drum beat thats already made (loop) ..how can we use this as single insturments? is that posisble?

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Hey family. I think the best way to address your question would be to say that you can add the sounds and loops to Leap and then what you can do is play them and manipulate them that way to your liking. There are multiple ways of this in Kontakt 8 but as far as manipulation of loos and one shots, Leap is a great way to start. Thanks so much for the question and for coming through and checking out the vid and the channel! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💯

[@francescomanfredi]

great video! Does anyone know if I can create a custom leap preset from my machine expansions in the free kontakt player?

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Yes, you can create a custom leap player with NI expansion sounds and then save that very preset in Kontakt 8. Just DONT move those folders when making a saved preset. Greatly appreciate you coming through and checking out the vid and the channel! Hope it inspires and motivates you to be creative! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💯

[@101Licious]

So LEAP is a copy of Output's Arcade ?

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

I have been hearing a lot of people say that lately. I have used it only once or twice and from my take on it, maybe there are some similarities of the formula but it has a NI approach to it. Still not a bad idea for Kontakt 8. I like it primarily because you can add your own loops and process it like it's in NKS format. Appreciate you coming through and checking out the vid and the channel! Hope it inspired and motivated you to be creative! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@HOLLASOUNDS]

I could definitely go to town with those samples but you know what I'm gona say? Do I actually need it? And the answer is no, I don't. Kontact and Komplete is great but feel its in direct competition with Reason Rack and I already invested in Reason.

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

Hey brother...... I totally get it and to be honest, I do understand that it's a what is needed and is a per basis for every producer. It's really good though depending on not just for the sounds but more so for the workflow and the development for maybe beginners in the game. As always man it's great to see you coming through and I been catching some of your vids lately, dope bro. I need to let you know you had some inspiring ideas I just haven't been able to do being able to be in the hospital. But no doubt man, appreciate you as always. Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯

[@HOLLASOUNDS]

@@PULSEMusicGroup There are several other brands who I feel are in direct competition with Reason such as Arcade by output or Arturia V collection, just like Komplete it's a bunch of plugins different synths effects all together in a package with the option to buy extra service. Realistically We can only really be fully invested in one. All the brands I mentioned are doing dope stuff and there are so many more brands, where would it stop? Appreciate you watching My vids, I need to fix My Studio and get a better way to record My audio when doing videos in the Shed. I currently got a bad toothache payed £400 already and have £700 to pay for just one tooth, madness. Why are you in the hospital? You unwell or is it because of a family member in hospital?

[@HOLLASOUNDS]

@@PULSEMusicGroup I responded to this but KZbin removed My comment again, check you held for review foulder.

[@sunnyventura1603]

its like arcade?

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

In all honesty, it has an Arcade feel just without the live updates of sounds the do, smh lol But it is fun and has a lot of potential to being added to anyone's arsenal for production. Appreciate you coming through and checking out the vid and the channel. Really hope it helped in any way! Blessings! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 💯
