Follow the instructions on the BRSO website for Midi Extend. Load the Multi into Kontakt and purge all samples. For your template in FL Studio, you will create a group in your channel rack called 8DIo Adagio Strings. Now that entire sample library can be run under one single instance of Kontakt IF you use BRSO’s Midi Extend feature. SO for example, create ONE Kontakt Multi for the 8Dio Adagio Strings Library. “expressive legato longs”) and then you can use BRSO to choose articulations with that instrument. You have to know which instrument to choose first (e.g. In other words, articulations are really just a subset of specific instruments contained in a library, so it’s a 2 step process. If you create a Kontakt Multi with all of the instruments contained in a particular sample library, then everything can be at your fingertips. You may only use 3 or 4 of the instruments on a project, but it’s a major pain navigating through these libraries trying to figure out which instrument you need. It might sound like overkill, but many of the String/Brass/Woodwind Libraries in Kontakt have dozens of distinct instruments to cover all the different playing techniques (Legato longs, shorts, etc, etc, etc).

To piggy back on Alex’s excellent tutorial, BRSO has a fantastic feature that allows you to use 64 midi channels in Kontakt 5 (not Kontakt 6 - stuck notes problem) called “MIDI EXTEND.” This means that you can create a single Kontakt Multi with up to 64 separate instruments, and have access to each of instruments in the FL Channel Rack.
