Video walkthrough:

Compatibility:

Kontakt: Requires the FULL version of Kontakt 8.11.0 or higher. The instrument will not work with the free Kontakt Player.

Decent Sampler:  Works with the FREE Decent Sampler.

Accessibility:

For visually impaired users: The included Kontakt patch Sami Drum Loaded can be operated entirely without using a mouse. All controls can be accessed using keyswitches and MIDI CC controls.

The sliders are assigned to CC#1 (modwheel) and CC#26. The selected controls can be changed using C4 (Expression, Reverb and Delay) and D4 (microphone selection). E4 changes the phase/polarity of the selected microphone.

Sami Drum Loaded has all samples loaded from the start to make the instrument fully accessible through keyswitches and controllers. Because of this, the patch may take a while to load. There are more details in the manual.
