Tags
To help you find the right Preset file quickly and efficiently, the Library implements various
techniques that go far beyond the classic folder structure of your operating system—the usage
of tags. For example, each Preset file included in the Library contain tags which describe the
Preset file according to following aspects:
▪
The content type of the file, i.e. whether it originates from an Instrument’s factory library or
if it was created by a user.
▪
The Instrument which the files comes from—this can include, e.g., a hierarchical structure
with an Instrument category, a particular Instrument, and possibly a Bank of this Instru-
ment.
▪
A variable amount of tags used to describe various characteristics of the file, for example,
the type of effect, the sonic character, the context in which it is used—in a word, anything
that might help you find the file.
Included Files in the Library
The Preset files included in the Library are all KOMPLETE KONTROL-relevant files found in
the folders whose paths are listed in the
Library
page of the
Preferences
panel.
You can also save the sounds you created in KOMPLETE KONTROL to the User content sec-
tion of the
Library pane
.
10.1.3 Browsing the Library vs. Browsing Your Hard Disks
Besides of browsing KOMPLETE KONTROL Library the Browser also allows you to navigate
your file system in a classic way. For each way the Browser provides a single pane with its own
tools:
▪
The
Library
pane allows you to browse the KOMPLETE KONTROL Library. This is the pre-
ferred way to search for files meeting particular musical requirements. This pane also al-
lows you to tag your own Preset files to your liking.
▪
The
Files
pane allows you to browse your hard disks by using the hierarchical folder struc-
ture of your operating system. For example you can use it to navigate KOMPLETE KON-
TROL-relevant files that have not been imported into the KOMPLETE KONTROL Library—
and you can import them from there!
