11 Managing the Library
With the Browser you can also organize your own Preset files. In this section you will learn how
you  save  and  manage  your  own  Preset  files  in  the  User  Library  and  how  to  import  KOM-
PLETE KONTROL-compatible user files.
11.1 Saving Preset Files to the User Library
KOMPLETE KONTROL allows you to conveniently save any sound you created with your Instru-
ments in a new user Preset file . Your saved files are automatically added to the user content
section of the  Library pane and  can  be filtered and  searched like any  other file in  the KOM-
PLETE KONTROL Library. On your hard drive, the user Preset files are saved in the following
folder (sorted by Instrument, in corresponding subfolders):
▪ Windows: C:\Users\<your user name>\Documents\Native Instruments\User Content\
▪ macOS:  Macintosh  HD/Users/<your  user  name>/Documents/Native  Instruments/User  Con-
tent/
The  files  saved  for KOMPLETE  Instruments  with KOMPLETE  KONTROL are  compatible with
the stand-alone and plug-in versions. This way you can, for example, open a KONTAKT file you
saved with KOMPLETE KONTROL  in the KONTAKT stand-alone  application  or the plug-in by
opening the file from the user content folder described above.
The  files  you  save  in  KOMPLETE  KONTROL  are  compatible  with  MASCHINE.  To  add
them to the user content section of MASCHINE’s Library pane, click on Rescan in the
User pane of the Library page in the MASCHINE Preferences.
