template two independent instruments

[vicent]

Hello my name is Vicente, I'm trying to put two midis in reaper and load kontak, with two instruments, a duduk and a tambourine (riqq), but there's no way someone could make me a template or explain how to do it, I've read everything I could and I have seen videos, but there is no way to make them sound independently. Thank you

Hello vicent and welcome to these forums. You'll find many helpful people here and a lot of useful information. Make sure that you:

• get the excellent User Guide by Nicholas too: http://www.cockos.com/reaper/userguide.php,
• check out Kenny Gioia's great video series: http://www.reaper.fm/videos.php,
• and the Groove 3 video series: https://www.groove3.com/reaper-training-video-tutorials.

Try this (don't worry, this takes longer to read than to do )

• right-click in the TCP (Track Control Panel) area below any existing tracks
• select "Insert virtual instrument on new track"
• select Kontakt
• click [Yes] on the "Build Routing confirmation" window; that will create tracks for all of the audio outputs from Kontakt,
• open the FX window for the Kontakt track (click the [fx] button)
• (optionally)select [Options] >> "Build 16 channel of MIDI routing to this track"
• disable Recarm for the Kontakt track

Now you will have (optionally) 16 tracks sending MIDI (on channels 01 ... 16 respectively) to Kontakt and several tracks for the audio outputs from Kontakt.

In Kontakt:

• create additional Mixer channels in the Outputs section as needed (and you can save the config as a default or a preset).
• route them to the different plug-in outputs,
• load your instruments and set the routing for each one - receiving MIDI on a particular MIDI channel AND sending its audio to a particular Mixer channel
• in this case, set the Duduk to receive MIDI on [A]1 and output audio to st.1 and set the Tambourine to receive MIDI on [A]2 and output audio to st.2

Back in Reaper, name your MIDI and audio tracks for their instruments "Duduk" for the first of each and "Tambourine" for the second of each) and add / record the MIDI notes.

Save all the tracks as a Track Template for later.

And here's a screenshot, using Kontakt 4 (the Reaper theme is not the default, so will look different):

Hello again, forgive if I look silly, but there is no way, continue to hear the duduk, but not the riqq, I send photos, if you can see where the failure is, thank you in advance for your patience. Thank you

we can surely help you but need to know more about what you need to have happen...

I understand you have two instruments in kontakt

I don't know how you want to use them...

are you playing them with a MIDI keyboard or are you manually writing notes to a MDI item?

also... when you say you want them to 'sound independently' explain exactly what you need to hear...

There are easy ways and there are more complex ways... so please first tell us more.

What DarkStar is telling you is all correct, but maybe you could do it more simply, depending on your needs for the moment.

Can you play them separately? I mean, can you play Duduk on the Duduk track and the Riq on the Riq track? You seemed to have set this up correctly though

Or are you trying to get the instruments on separate 'AUDIO' tracks? I see you have them on different audio CHANNELS in Kontakt, would you like these to play on reaper tracks?

Hello, first of all thank you for your patience, I will try to explain:
1st I think midi from score with the encore program
2º what I try is to put those scores: duduk or ney + percussion
3rd try to sound separately (currently the percussion does not sound, you can not hear it)
3rd the idea is to do so, to be able to tax the darbuka with a separate microphone.
4º the midis separately, loading kontak, if they sound correctly
5th but when I put the two scores only the first one sounds.
Thanks for your help and patience, I know I'm very bad, but I'm going crazy and there's no way
