Is it possible to use several instances of Komplete Kontrol on different Synfire Instruments ?

How does Komplete Kontrol control the NI plug-ins and where are they hosted?

Komplete Kontrol is used in Synfire as an AU instrument.

Komplete Kontrol hosts the NI instruments.

So the keyboard hardware connects to the "Kontrol" AU, which hosts all the NI instruments? 

How does the keyboard connect to the AU? Does it need active support by the DAW, or does it use some hidden custom connection (network, pipes)?

And you want to use multiple keyboards? Or multiple "Kontrol AU" with a single keyboard?

In general, if no active "special" support by the DAW is required and the keyboard just connects to the plug-in directly, Synfire will do whatever a DAW will also do.

The keyboard is a NI keyboard and is connected in usb. It does not nead a daw. It can be used with any application as Synfire, addictive keys, addictive drums, NI Komplete Kontrol, ……….

I use a Mac.

I would like to precise what i mean by ‘multi instances’ because i am not sure it is the good term.

I try do define in Synfire several instruments with each instrument being linked to a different instrument in Komplete Kontrol. 

It is possible i have not used the good way :

I add a Synfire instrument 1 linked to a Komplete Kontrol instrument, for example strings.It works.

Then

I add a Synfire instrument 2 linked to another Komplete Kontrol instrument, for example guitar.

The problem is that instrument 1 is now linked to the last guitar instrument defined.

The equivalent in Logic is : i add a new track of type ‘software instrument’ associated to an AU instrument as Komplete Kontrol.

Another added track can use the same AU instrument with different properties.

I create a first Synfire instrument linked to an AU Komplete Kontrol plugin.

As soon as i create a second instrument linked to an AU Komplete Kontrol plugin, the first instrument ceases to work.

If I understand correctly, you should probably add another channel to the existing "Kontrol" rack module instead of creating a new one with another Kontrol AU instance.

The sound wizard has a bullet point for this: "New Channel On Existing Module"

I succeeded as follows :

Create a first instrument linked to Komplete Kontrol

Create a second instrument linked to Soundcase (not to Komplete Kontrol)

Modify the second instrument with Sound Wizard addind a new channel on the module Komplete Kontrol

It works

Thank You very much

Hi I treid that too but I think it isn't possible with Komplete Kontroll only with Kontakt.

I found that there are few things that have been changed in Kontakt 7. How to load a instrument, dubble click erase instrument and load a new so was’t it before, for to load a instrument now, you have to drag the instrument and it will be merge with the current instrument. I think that was the reson I believe that it was’t possible to load multi instrument in Komplete Kontroll in one instans.
