    Is Kontakt In Trouble? Composers React to Native Instruments News

    🎧 Sponsored by Sonora CinematicUse code COFFEEANDSOUND for 10% off athttps://sonoracinematic.comThis podcast grew out of my blog The Sound Design Diaries, which always aimed to spark conversations with other composers, sound designers and audio professionals. Instead of writing alone, I decided to bring those conversations to life.The idea is simple:A group of friends from across the audio industry sit down for a relaxed one-hour chat over coffee (or whatever we’re drinking), talking about music, sound design, tools, and the state of our industry.In this first episode we discuss the recent news around Native Instruments and what it might mean for composers, developers, and the future of platforms like Kontakt. We also talk about hardware vs software, creative workflows, and alternative sampler ecosystems.Guests in this episode:– Joe Miller (WavLab Studio)– James David Redding III (Emmy-winning sound editor: The Queen’s Gambit, The Americans)– Nicolaj Müller-Nielsen (Bunker Samples)– Matthew Collings (Krotos)We keep things casual, honest and unscripted — just a group of people who make sound for a living talking shop.
