in reply to: I want more install. #54320

Hi there,

The easiest thing for you to do in this case is to copy the Library Folder from your backup or another system of yours to your destination system. This way, you do not have to re-download all those GBs of sample data.

Just:

1. Copy the whole library folder over to the new system
2. Log in to Native Access
3. Find the Library in the “Not Installed” section
4. Click “Add Library” and point it to your copied folder

That’s it.

Then, if this is regarding LASS Full2.5,  you simply run the ARC (Only) installer. This link can help you – make sure you look at step #3: viewtopic.php?f=51&t=3150

We use Amazon Wed Servers to handle our downloads and they charge us for every download and that’s why we only allow 1 successful instal per purchase. If you’d like to re-download the entire library including the sample data, we’ll send you a $5 Redownload link. This is not a money maker for us… it’s simply to cover our AWS expenses. It all adds up.

Let us know by email if you would like us to send you a link for the $5 Redownload Instal which includes all the samples and instruments.

Hi, Thank you for your kind and fast reply.

I tried to download it again, but the same problem occurred.
Only a few samples were downloaded and the app was automatically shut down.
When I ran the app again, I saw a message telling me to try download again later.
And when I turned on the program again, I couldn’t start the download again.
Can I know how to solve this kind of problem?
Even before I’ve used musical instruments from some companies(native instrument, cinesamples, arturia, spitfire etc.),
but I’ve never had such a problem, so I’m very embarrassed:(
I’m so sorry for bothering you with the same problem.

Waiting for your answer!
Thanks.

We have reset your Account Status, so please log back into the Audiobro Download Center (ADC) application, you should then be able to re-download your requested library via the ADC.

Please only download 1 library at a time. And don’t use any VPNs.

Please take the following precautions:

• Please disable any ANTI VIRUS software that may be operating on your computer
• Please disable computer power-saving modes (you don’t want your computer to go to sleep after 15 minutes)
• Wireless Ethernet is not as reliable as CAT5 or CAT6 cabled Ethernet.
• Make sure you turn off firewalls and security apps that may interfere with downloading.
• Make sure you have a good connection.
• Make sure you have enough room on your disk.
• If you are having issues, try installing it on an internal drive and then copying the folder to your Samples drive. Sometimes there are permission issues with certain drives.

If the Audiobro Download Center (ADC) application is stuck, try these things in the following order:

1) Press Pause (not Stop) on the ADC and then choose Resume and see if it picks up again. Be patient. Give it a minute.

If #1 doesn’t work then try #2

2) Press Pause (not Stop) on the ADC. Quit the ADC, then Restart the ADC and resume.

If none of these work, then do #3

3) Stop Download in ADC, Delete what was downloaded (we may have to reset your account) and then try downloading again from beginning.

For further issues, please make sure you follow these instructions closely:

The only EQ I know that follows the frequency you are on is this one… it’s not cheap, but a producer friend of my swears by it. It may not be what you are looking for, because probably something more akin to side-chaining (using a freq range to modulate EQ) would be used to achieve what this thread is about, but the Surfer EQ is still something that is very musical and different:

https://www.soundradix.com/products/surfer-eq/

Having said that, I don’t believe there really is anything that will do what this thread will since this thread uses note information even on multiple notes at once (at the Kontakt Group level) and applies the EQ specifically to that notes as it’s being played.

in reply to: Changing the attack on strings #52948

Hi there,

Sorry I missed this post.

LASS Sustain patches allow you to adjust the attack using velocity. It’s very subtle on the lower dynamics since the lower dynamic attacks are typically slower. It’s more obvious on the upper dynamics.

On the legato intervals (with connected notes) there is no way to change the attack since the legato intervals are recorded and changing that would affect the smoothness of the transitions.

I hope this helps.

in reply to: Notes being omitted. Quick fix for rush film scoring job? #52398

Hi there,

To ge the behavior you want…

1. Load a legato patch
2. Turn off the legato feature (and likely purge the transitions to save RAM)
3. Hold the sus pedal

… it should definitely sustain.

If not, make sure you have Auto Arranger turned off. Your patch should look like this (if you unloaded the legato samples):

I hope this helps.

in reply to: Notes being omitted. Quick fix for rush film scoring job? #52396

If you want the polyphonic legato, then you’ll need to use Auto Arranger. For all other non-sustain patches you can turn off Auto Arranger and be fine. Most people that use Lite don’t really bother with divisi and Auto Arranger since there are no real divisi sections… just string sections.

I’d say the easiest approach for newcomers is to NOT use Auto Arranger. Simply load 1 patch per MIDI channel and play 1 line at a time. Alternately, if you tune off Legato you can play the sustain patches as plain old fashioned non-legato sustain patches and those will behave in a polyphonic manner.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for the quick response Sebastian! You’re all over it… So, if I may ask, the dry sound out of the box is which mic (or mics used in combination) to achieve the dry sound? Decca tree, outriggers, section, spot mics? Some combination? I would say from the sound that a Decca tree and outriggers weren’t used, probably section mics at a 4 to 6′ distance? Just want to know so I can estimate the “virtual placement” for the strings. Thanks!

Thanks for the warm and kind words in this thread!!

Actually is was a careful blend of close Decca and far mics as to not make it too ambient. As LASS was recorded on a scoring stage (and not a hall), the far mics actually don’t sound like verby mics. These are all naked and dry as recorded with no external processing of any kind.

I hope this helps.

The legato multi for La Strings Lite 2.0. I believe I only have one multi for my version. Could it be that the legato string patches don’t respond with the same velocity as other patches such as staccato, etc.

Legato patch respond toe Mod wheel for dynamics…to emulate bow pressure/volume and to keep legato smooth. The Staccatos respond to velocity since the bow is only hitting the string for a moment.

I hope this helps.

@JET wrote:

I very rarely open old files, so that’s not my concern. Just wondering, for new projects, do I need to have both of these folders on my SSD, or can I delete older folder?

You can delete the old folder if you wish. You will still be able to re-open your projects but you will have to point Kontakt to the new version of LASS and click on Allow Alternate File Types.

As a fellow pro, I’d advise backing up your Old LASS Instruments folder which is a small footprint.

I hope this helps.

But how do I get in this Multi into the Pitchcontrol etc section in the Kontakt surface??
Best regards

Hi there,

I’m not sure I’m understanding your question. Even with the Multi, you would use CC83 to control the Pitch.

This may help:

When I load i AutoarrPreset and hold down the Sustain pedal is held down the notes get totally in disorder. Even if they are quantized (stack or spice) they are play ed after each other and so on. Do I have to press the Sustain pedal to get the AA work??

And something else .. why are i these patches the short articulations are recorded with kind of a “delay”. When i Programm those art´s I always have to but them much before the beat to get them synchronized with a piano line which is played in time??

Best regards

There is about 50ms of delay when using Auto Arranger (AA). On shorts, I recommend turning off AA or using a negative delay of 50ms on the MIDI track.

When I load i AutoarrPreset and hold down the Sustain pedal is held down the notes get totally in disorder.

Are you loading multiple patches or just one patch? Is this with Audiobro Remote Control (A.R.C.) ? AA works by assigning one voice per patch unless you have ARC involved. So if you are playing chords on a single patch with AA ON but without ARC, then you will get odd behaviors because there are no other instruments to play the other voices.

I hope this helps.

in reply to: Saving a multi #52083

Hi Warren,

Make sure you don’t have a duplicate LASS folder somewhere. I just tested it myself here and it worked, so it’s puzzling why it wouldn’t work in your case aside from having a Multis folder that wasn’t referenced by Kontakt.

Right-Click on a default LASS Multi patch, and it will give you an option to “open containing folder”. Then open the folder and take note where it is. Is your file there? If not, that’s your problem.

I hope this helps.

in reply to: Midi for automation tutorial #51969

HI adventures,

I’m out of town in a non-stop studio session until the 8th of September. When I get back to “my” studio, I’ll try to bang out a couple of MIDI files for you to help get a better handle on CC1, CC11, Legato, Port, Gliss etc.

If you don’t hear back from after the 8th…. feel free to remind me by email or bump this thread.

Thanks.

OK Andrew.

So, I understand the best way to play a cello solo on chords played by full orchestra (with multis) is to load a second time the cello FC patches with cc30 turned off.

Although, a second way would be to use an automation on cc30 on the cello FC of the multi.

In your experience, what is the best way to do?

Thanks in advance.

Guillaume

Hi Guillaume,

If the FC is on it’s own MIDI channel (not the same exact MIDI channel as other instruments in the Multi) then using CC30 to turn off AA if great (and that is what it was designed for).

I hope this helps.

There’s an important line missing. You’ll need this:

on midi_in

if ($MIDI_COMMAND = $MIDI_COMMAND_NOTE_ON and $MIDI_BYTE_2 > 0)

ignore_midi

set_midi ($MIDI_CHANNEL, $MIDI_COMMAND_NOTE_ON, $MIDI_BYTE_1, %CC[1])

end if

end on

I’d suggest placing this before ARC (you can save the current ARC preset and load it into slot 2 to preserve your settings). Just bear in mind this will apply universally to this multi as written.

Thanks for that.

in reply to: Control velocity with a CC control? #51759

In a future update, we will allow this natively inside LASS. But for now, if you want to assign (say) Velocity to the same value as CC1 (Mod Whee), then you could copy/paste this script in the first slot of the Multi Script slot and then hit Apply:

on midi_in

if ($MIDI_COMMAND = $MIDI_COMMAND_NOTE_ON and $MIDI_BYTE_2 > 0)

set_midi ($MIDI_CHANNEL,$MIDI_COMMAND_NOTE_ON,$MIDI_BYTE_1,%CC[1])

end if

end on

If you want to have a different CC control velocity, then change the “1” in %CC[1] (above) to whatever CC number you want.

I hope this helps.

Andrew K
