Dont know where else to ask about Kontakt

Full editing over anything you might want to change, or map, or whatever.

It won't "fix" the non legit sample library you have. The timeout is because you don't have a license for the library...unless you've converted it from an old format (like Giga/Akai)--in which case, the full version of Kontakt will allow that w/o timeout. But, if it's a Kontakt lib? Nope. Still have to buy whatever that is--it won't time out the player once you've registered your purchase.

I don't have much of a use for the full version, honestly. I PLAY instruments...I don't edit sample mappings and attack envelopes, etc. I pay a lot of money to have the shiznit done for me by the sound designers making the products. But, if you're into sound creation/mutation, by all means get the full version.

I also thought I would need it for Akai/giga compatibility...but, honestly, I have no use for those old sounds now that better emulations are available. Plus, the Giga converter in Kontakt BLOWS chunks. I don't think I've imported a single thing that imported correctly. That's nice that they give the player that ability (though timed out) to remind me how little use I have for the old sounds I paid so much for in the day.
