Just installed V2. Will the V2 presets be NKS soon? As I cannot see them within Maschine/KK browsers yet

Damn!

Can anyone tell me if I use Pigments in Komplete Kontrol, are the new presets available in the on screen menu and just not via the keyboard? Or will I only see them in Kontakt?

You can open Pigments inside Komplete Kontrol, and you can open it's presets through Pigments GUI in Komplete Kontrol. You can also save your own NKS files allready. The only thing that's not there yet is NKS files made by Arturia, but it's not a must to use it.

Kontakt is NI's sampler application. It does'nt host applications like Pigments. It can use audio samples and audio sample libraries.

You can use Pigments as it's own standalone application, or inside Analog Lab, or by it self in a host like a DAW and other hosts.

Pigments V2 update is a great update.

The list of new features is huge. And clearly Arturia have taken some user wishes into account in one way or another.

Pigments also have become even more user friendly.
In example the navigation buttons over the center modulation strip that's availble when a modulator window is open. This is a nice way to implement this in a way it's possible. A info on mouse over would be great to have, to see which modulator window you open, when you click the button.

Keep it up Arturia. Thanks for this huge update.

You will see Pigments presets in KK's browser, the only ines not listed in the browser atre the new V2 specific presets.

kontakt is a sample instrument in its own right, nothing to do with Pigments.

Saw V2 was out, logged in, saw I could buy it for 49 Euros, presumed it was a paid update so went ahead and ordered it.

Then realised it was a free update to v1 owners.

Time to ask for a refund  doh :)
