Sketchpad
Kontakt Instrument
- FREE
SKETCHPAD is a free MIDI recorder that runs inside of Kontakt. Load it up alongside your favorite Kontakt instruments and record everything you play, then drag a MIDI file of your recording to the timeline of your DAW or into your favorite notation program.
Harness the creativity in free-writing. Record long improvisations outside of your DAW without the temptation to edit or tweak. Then select the best parts of your performance later.
Start writing - fast! Musical ideas can be fleeting, but starting up a modern DAW with hundreds of plug-ins can take several minutes: long enough that you might lose your moment of inspiration. Save a default Kontakt multi with the light-weight SKETCHPAD instrument pre-instantiated and you can be composing in seconds — before you lose your train of thought.
And best of all…it’s FREE!
