Build custom instruments from any audio in minutes—drag samples onto a keyboard, then shape timbre with intuitive filters and modulation routing.
Kontakt 7 is a professional sampler and instrument creation platform by Native Instruments that allows you to play back and process audio samples, create sophisticated sample-based virtual instruments, and build complex performance setups with extensive modulation routing. It operates as both a standalone application and as a VST/VST3, AU, and AAX plugin, providing a modular architecture that scales from simple one-shot sample playback to intricate virtual instruments that reproduce acoustic instruments with detailed articulation control.
