The advantages creating Sampling Modules with Kontakt 5.0

The tricks to make keyboard sampling modules can be done with varieties of the host softwares, such as Reaper, Reason, Sonar, Kontakt, Hypersonic, etc., depending on the tastes and familiarization of the user. For instance, I have tried to use the Reaper, Reason, Sonar and Kontakt as my sampling host software. Apparently, after I compare, Kontakt has its own advantages for use as the sampling host, especially for the version 5.0. Kontakt 5.0 is lighter than Reaper. In Reaper, we need to inject the other software such as Battery to put an external sound to be sampled, meanwhile Kontakt has its own feature to replace the Battery.  Even using the internal sound card, it is capable to get 5.8 ms latency with the condition that the PC/Laptop doesn't use any Anti-Virus or the other heavy software. Besides of that kontakt 5.0 available in portable version, so that it's handy to install.

Here I share some features of the Kontakt 5.0 that might be useful as consideration to optimize our sampling modules,

1. Can be used as style sampler.
2. Can be used midi sampler.
3. Support with a lot of file extension that can be useful for sampling module, such as SF2, format file from Battery 2 or 3, Wav, Mp3.
4. The features are simple and easy to set up.
5. Easy to edit the note positions for the injected sound samples in order to build the set of Percussion, Drum & Gendang, etc.
6. Kontakt 5.0 support with ASIO4ALL
7. It is a standalone software, so that we don't need the other host software (such as Reaper, Sonar, etc)

Hopefully useful
