Breakdown of Scripting and Performance View in The Urban Beats Collection

With Kontakt’s internal scripting language, Instruments can provide custom control panels called Performance Views. In today’s videos tutorial we’ll take a look at the Breakdown of Scripting and Performance View in The Urban Beats Collection.

The idea behind Performance View is that it makes Instrument-specific settings available in a user-friendly way that doesn’t require the user to
switch into Instrument Edit mode. For example, a funky guitar Instrument might provide a Performance View that lets you tweak its effects, like a wah-wah filter or a guitar amp simulation.

The main advantage of this approach is that Performance Views appear below the Instrument Header in the Rack. So you don’t need to switch to Instrument Edit mode to locate the respective parameters or try and figure out to which controllers they are assigned. All Instruments
included in the Kontakt 5 library provide Performance Views.

Until next time…now go make some music.
