2. Use Leap to loop ideas
One of Kontakt’s newest features, Leap, helps you loop musical ideas, and easily create song ideas by jamming with samples. Leap combines the power of a looper VST with an intuitive way to jam, make and manipulate samples in seconds, giving you a wealth of new creative ideas for beats and tracks.
You can use Leap to loop your own samples, or try out the Leap Expansions series, which offers genre specific sample kits if you’re looking to focus in on a particular sound.
To use Leap, open Kontakt and select the Leap heading in the Library. You can now browse the available Leap Expansions ranging from Pop and RnB to Latin Trap and Trance. Use one of the Kits, and play the MIDI notes on your keyboard to try out the sounds. The black notes on your keyboard can be used to add Perform FX, and create custom kits for looping using your own samples.
