Is it possible to have multiple sounds from Kontakt going at once through different outs in the Ren? If so please provide how. This would make life much easier for the producers who you Kontakt.

That would be cool and save me a lot of time. Any solutions for this besides using a DAW? I tried to even pull up multiple Kontakt plugins but even that didn't work! So can you not pull up the same plugin twice and play a different sound in each? That eats the CPU also! There has to be a workaround? I'm getting comfortable with using the Ren as a standalone unit.

Two possible ways:
One you've mentioned different instances of the plugin = different outputs but more system resources
and 2 quite obvious but less resources, mute and export in different passes each of the midi chanels you've assigned in kontakt..

Add it to the feature request list for 1.4 (check out the recent thread). I've added it to mine.. More specifically what we want is the VST instruments to be assignable to multiple outputs and not just a stereo pair. Like you, I'd prefer to work in stand alone mode but certain things just restrict the workflow I'm used to, this being one of them..

Thanks for the reply but I'm done adding features to the request list! I'm jiSt gonna wait on AKAI to do it because they're gonna do what they want when they want. This forum is contagious! lol
