Thanks yes it was helpful, but it's a road map to another library, not Olympus. So I followed it as far as I could & appear to have got a result: my Alesis Q25 midi keyboard is now synched to the keyboard in Kontakt Player, but whether that was my doing or whether it happened by default only time will tell.
Still can't see the awe-inspiring midi controls the other videos show for Olympus in Kontakt but what the heck, Mixcraft has its own midi modeller, I am quite happy with that.
See what you mean about the loading time. For days that has phased me, thinking I'm doing something wrong, when it's just the waiting game. After several minutes, if you have hooked up properly, the Kontakt keyboard colours up and the notes start playing. Only today I can really play those notes with my midi keyboard, not just the mouse.
The full version of Olympus, if I ever get that far, concerns me by its sheer size. In theory I could load it to a secondary hard drive (which would solve everything instantly) but in practise you are warned to load everything to the poor old C drive. So I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.
So far so good
