If you are using the free “Kontakt Player” version of Kontakt, then RealiBanjo will only work in 15 minute increments in what they call “Demo Mode.” That’s because the “Kontakt Player” is designed for (and will only work for) higher cost libraries (like Realivox) because they charge us a license fee for that. A pretty deep discount! Funny thing about that is that if someone wanted to buy Kontakt, they might as well buy Realivox Blue first, because they’ll save more money than the price of Realivox Blue! In other words, it’s like getting Blue for free. If you then pay Native Instruments $399, then the free Kontakt Player becomes the “full” version of Kontakt.īut wait!!! If you buy a qualifying Kontakt Player library (like Realivox,) then they give you a “Crossgrade” discount, so you would only pay $249. The download is free and they even include some free instruments, so you can get a feel for it. If you’ve never played with Kontakt at all, you can download the free Kontakt Player here:
or no RealiBanjo at all, they choose to accept the minor inconvenience. Given the choice between using Realivox and dealing with “Demo Mode”. Seriously! They have to restart Kontakt every 15 minutes to reset the demo timer, but it’s worth it to them.

Now, here’s something interesting: Even though instruments like RealiBanjo require the full version of Kontakt, they will still work in the free Kontakt Player, although only for 15 minutes at a time in “Demo Mode.” A surprisingly large number of our customers actually use RealiBanjo in exactly this way. More importantly, Native Instruments doesn’t allow libraries that cost under $100 to be Kontakt Player libraries ($100 minimum price required), so even if I thought customers would pay the extra $10 to $20, it still isn’t an option. Going from $29 to over $40 (for example) would scare a lot of people off. That additional cost would be too much extra cost for many customers. It adds to our costs, of course, but it’s worth it because this fee is proportionately not very significant compared to the cost of the library.įor RealiBanjo (or RealiWhistle, Screaming Trumpet, or Acoustic Lite,) paying that fee would add $10 to $20 to the price. You can’t create your own instruments with it, but you can load instruments if that instrument is an official “Kontakt Player Library.” To become a Kontakt Player library, we (developers like Realitone) pay a fee to Native Instruments, who then sprinkle magic fairy dust on our library, and then it will work in the free Kontakt Player.įor Realivox Blue, Realivox – The Ladies, Fingerpick, and RealiDrums, we paid this fee, so they will work in the free Kontakt Player.
Kontakt Player is a free version of Kontakt.
(RealiBanjo, etc.) Most Kontakt libraries require the “full version” of Kontakt, which costs $399. Kontakt (often called “full Kontakt,” or “the full version of Kontakt”) is a full fledged sampler that you can create your instruments with, and more importantly, you can load instruments that other people created with Kontakt. The difference between Kontakt (sometimes called “Full Kontakt”) and the free Kontakt Player can be confusing, so it’s smart of you to ask this!
