The pinnacle of sampling technology
Sampling technology has come a long way since hardware samplers first started to emerge onto the scene in the late 1970s and early '80s.

An attractive, intuitive user interface
Kontakt 7 boasts an upgraded interface with stunning HiDPI GUIs for its revamped Factory library.
