Rigid Audio KONTAKT GUI Maker

NO SCRIPTING REQUIRED

KONTAKT GUI Maker lets you design interfaces for your KONTAKT instruments with a breeze. You only have to drag and drop pictures onto the working area, and "KGM" will update the template KONTAKT script automatically.

DRAG AND DROP INTERFACE DESIGN

Forget typing dozens of "declare" definitions manually.

Simply let KONTAKT GUI Maker do it for you. It´s as simple as dragging an item from the library to your GUI area.

PRECISE ARRANGING

KONTAKT GUI Maker features all you need for precise creation and designing of your KONTAKT instrument´s user interface.

It features an adjustable grid, align-lines that show up when elements are centered and animation preview using the mouse wheel.

LIBRARY CONTENT INCLUDED

To get you started we have included over 60 PNG buttons, sliders and knobs.
There are also tables, menus and labels. The library content will be upgraded on a regular basis. All library items can be edited and modified easily.

CUSTOMIZABLE

KONTAKT GUI Maker features an adjustable movement lag to avoid sudden movement of interface elements. Furthermore, you can lock items as well. There is also a script history in case you changed something and want to revert back to that state or look what you have changed previously.

TEMPLATE INSTRUMENT INCLUDED

KONTAKT GUI Maker comes with a bundled and ready-to-use NKI instrument, designed for KONTAKT 5+ and to work seamlessly with KGM.

It features all the basic things to get you started. All you have to do is to import and map your own samples and you are good to go.

AN INDISPENSABLE TOOL

Learn working with “KGM” and why the KONTAKT GUI Maker is really an indispensable tool for everyone who is creating and developing instrument libraries for KONTAKT!

OVER 500 SCRIPT ACTIONS INCLUDED

KONTAKT GUI Maker comes with currently over 500 “action” script files that can be assigned to onscreen controls with a simple mouse click. These control various functions of the bundled template NKI instrument like changing filter envelopes, adjusting the LFO, controlling the amount of effect sends and so on. These can be expanded easily.

Need a filter cutoff knob? Assign the script to your element and you´re done!

EASY UI-CONTROL EDITING

KONTAKT GUI Maker has a context-sensitive menu that displays all available options and properties for the selected control. Change automation names, mouse behaviour and values directly on screen with automatic script update.

DYNAMIC IMAGE MENU CREATION

KONTAKT GUI Maker features automatic menu creation. Just add properties to the text file and drag and drop it onto the editing area. You can apply custom colours, outlining and colour gradients as well. You can have an infinite number of menu elements.
