USING KONTAKT IN STANDALONE MODE
The standalone Kontakt application can be found in the
Applications > Kontakt 3 folder for Mac users, or Program Files >
Native Instruments > Kontakt 3 for Windows users.
After launching the Kontakt application for the first time, you will
be presented with a dialog box to set up your audio and MIDI set-
tings. Settings will vary for each user according to the specific
setup, but the important thing is to route the audio to a valid au-
dio device, and to set the buffer reasonably low for good latency
performance. We recommend 256 samples or less. The lower the
latency slider, the less latency (the split second between the physi-
cal playing of the note and the sound coming out of Kontakt) will
be, but the harder the computer will have to work. Typical useful
values range between 128 and 256, however very fast computers
may be able to handle lower values, while very slow computers
may need higher values.

The MIDI page of the Options dialog box must be configured in
order to let Kontakt know which MIDI device(s) to respond to.
Kontakt will respond to up to four MIDI input ports (A, B, C, and
D), so we recommend you switch one MIDI source on to Port A,
as shown in the graphic below.
