The virtual instrument platform reinvented
Imagine any sound – Kontakt lets you find it, create it, and transform it. The latest edition of our revolutionary sampling platform combines a brand-new set of intelligent tools with countless sound design options, redefining how you generate ideas and make music.

A huge choice of sound
Kontakt hosts the world’s largest range of virtual instruments. With thousands of libraries, it's the gateway to quality sound from Native Instruments, our official partners, and scores of indie developers. Plus, everything is completely tweakable, so you can make any sound your own.

Smash writer’s block
Tools add a completely new layer of creative features to get the ideas flowing. And they work with any Kontakt instrument, old and new. For our first drop, we’re launching MIDI content and randomization features with Chords and Phrases, designed to spark new ideas and get you in the zone fast.

Fast and fun loop control
Leap is an ultra-fast and playful way to play and manipulate loops. Spark fresh ideas, sprinkle in expressive performance effects, or just jam. Breathe new life into your sample collection or try something totally fresh with our new Leap Expansions series, starting with 12 curated packs for specific genres and styles.

Sound like nothing else
Conflux is the first in a new breed of Kontakt instruments for experimental sound design. Layer organic and synthetic samples and add dynamic movement to static sounds in real time, with original PPG wavetables and techniques like FM, phase modulation, and ring modulation.

    Hi everyone in this thread having problems, I figured out a workaround, just download kontakt from Native Access, then use the patch in 4download's file to activate it, it worked for me, no problems. Also, to Mr/Mrs CommonSense further down in the comment scetion, I hope you grow as aperson because this version of you that feels needs to brag on the internet instead of helping people is kinda miserable

    Works fine for me but then again, I know how to read and write, can think for myself and have common sense unlike most people these days. Then again, 99% of the people whining because they can't get it to work have less than a 4th grade education but, "they momma told dem dey smartz and stufff".............so sad
